The mBA program:A real-world business experience

Choose a Path

Open Your MindYour way of seeing the world will have a profound impact on how you do business. That’s why at the very beginning of your program we want to get inside your head and expose you to new ideas and new ways of thinking. Instead of looking at processes, outputs and outcomes, we will be focusing on design thinking (finding the most creative ways to do business) and lean thinking (doing business in the most efficient way possible so as to maximize impact).

Today’s Business EnvironmentWhat are the issues that are shaping the world of business today? The current trends and the coming challenges? Artificial intelligence, virtual reality, computational thinking - these and many more ideas are having an impact on how we work now and are expected to have a profound effect on our ideas about work in the future. Your MBA will help you understand what’s going on and position yourself so that you are ready for what’s coming.

This is the pivotal moment in your journey. Do you want to be an entrepreneur?Do you have a business idea? If so, then you will choose that path and everything you do thereafter will be about helping you bring your idea to life. But maybe that’s not for you. In which case maybe you should think about being an intrapreneur-someone who works in an existing business, but does so in an entrepreneurial way. One way or another, running your own business or working in an established one, you will have to take an entrepreneurial approach, and this program is designed to prepare you for that.

Improve Your Skills

Building a Successful BusinessWhat is business success? How do we achieve it and then build on it? You will learn from business leaders who have had to face all kinds of challenges in their own professional lives and they will pass on their knowledge, insight and experience to you in order to help you learn from their mistakes as well as from their successes. We need to know how to harness the vast amounts of data that are available, how money flows through a business and to be ready to change and innovate at every turn.

Make It HappenWhether you choose the entrepreneur or intrapreneur pathway, the focus will be on achieving results and getting things done. We want to help you take a 360 degree approach to doing business, always with an eye on the big picture while being at the same time able to see the details that, when ignored, can cause problems. You will graduate not only with a diploma, but with a finely honed ‘can do’ attitude that will help you take your business idea to the next level and that will also make you very attractive to employers.

What do you need to know?Most importantly, how do you put those skills and that knowledge to use?We don’t think success happens when you receive your diploma. Instead, success begins when you enter the door on day one and grows with every contribution you make through your professional journey.
