\"Adalat_Muradov\"<\/a>\u201cAlthough the problem of shadow economy is paradoxical, it has been created by professionals who are the product of the education system as a whole and is tried to be settled by \u00a0those specialists. This fact reaffirms the contradiction in education; it shows that the education system is still weak in\u00a0 \u00a0transmitting other qualities of it to graduates, except knowledge, I would like to say values of it.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

I am sure you will agree with me value of education is the most important moment, in terms of the digital economy and secret economy we are discussing today. It is no coincidence that I began my speech with values in education. Universities should focus not only on knowledge but also on values and pay more attention to ways to ensure it.<\/p>\n

It is well-known that the imposition of values by force is always a failure. Let me finish my speech with a thesis from Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon, in 2010 at Princeton. His speech is called: “It is our choices that make us.”<\/p>\n

Bezos begins his speech with a sad story. Bezos was 10 years old when he travelled with his grandparents. He estimated that smoking 2 minutes reduced his grandmother’s life by 9 years. When he told his grandmother about it, his grandmother cried. His grandfather stopped the car and told\u00a0\u00a0 Bezos in a mild manner: “You will never realize that being kind is harder than being clever.”<\/p>\n

Speaking of this event, Bezos said: \u201cMind is talent, and goodness is choice. Everything about talent is clear and\u00a0 simple, it has been given to us. But choice may be very difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n

We are confident that universities should help their students to master this fundamental difference and encourage students to be picked not only by their mind, but also with their kindness. I think that’s the main task today. \u201d<\/p>\n

This was stated by the rector of Azerbaijan State University of Economics (UNEC) Professor Adalat \u00a0Muradov at a joint event titled “Struggle against the shadow economy as \u00a0an important factor of economic development,” \u00a0at the event jointly organized by the Ministry of Taxes, the Union of Economists of Azerbaijan and the Chamber of Auditors of the Republic of Azerbaijan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
