“Les Petits Déjeuners du Management” organized by ESA Business School in partnership with Banque BEMO, hosted a breakfast conference, animated by Sandra Salame on “Resilience in Action: How Crisis Shapes the Leader and the Organization”.

The conference brought together a diverse group of professionals and featured enriching discussions on how companies can sustain shocks, adapt continuously and renew over time. In addition to an exploration of the main leadership tendencies, navigating polarities and the ex*****on discipline in uncertainty.

Banque BEMO took part in the “Semaine jésuite” (Jesuit Week) 2026 organized by Saint Joseph University of Beirut (USJ), reaffirming a longstanding relationship with the University’s cultural and academic initiatives.

Held under the theme “Tout homme et tout l’homme” (Every man and the whole person), the event reflects the Jesuit tradition of viewing the human being as an integrated whole—mind, spirit, meaning, freedom, and responsibility—and invites reflection on human dignity, intellectual growth, and service to society.

The event was marked by remarks from Rev. Fr. Jad Chebli, S.J., Chaplain of USJ, and Rev. Fr. François Boedec, S.J., Rector of the University, as well as a tribute to Rev. Fr. Salim Daccache, S.J., Rector of USJ from 2012 to 2025, honoring a journey that has marked decades of intellectual, educational, and humanistic contribution.

More than a rector, Father Daccache came to be widely regarded as a true builder of the institution. Throughout successive national crises, he helped guide USJ with steadiness and vision—preserving its foundations while strengthening its academic and cultural mission. The tribute thus reflected not only a personal journey, but a defining chapter in the University’s history, marked by growth and intellectual leadership against the odds.

Representing the Bank were Dr. Riad Obegi, Chairman and General Manager, and his advisor Mrs. Joumana Hobeika.
