AN EXPERIENCE TO ACCELERATE AND AMPLIFY YOUR IMPACT
Our unique approach exposes you to real-world situations while supporting you with mentorship and guidance, preparing you to deal with future business challenges.
Impact is the difference between trying and achieving—and bridging that gap takes specific skills. A career in business is about overcoming tough challenges daily, but your strengths alone won’t enable you to do that. When faced with difficult problems, difficult situations, and, at times, difficult people, it takes more than just knowledge and theoretical training to move things forward. That’s why our program places you in a real business setting, where you work on live projects with actual consequences—learning how to solve complex problems in real-time, across functions and teams.
We've crafted the Master in Management & Strategy to be transformative, ensuring you undergo profound experiences that fundamentally alter how you perceive and approach challenges. You’ll collaborate with classmates from different backgrounds and departments to tackle real challenges faced by companies—experiences that push you to adapt, lead and deliver under pressure. This real-life experience enables you to leverage everything you learn in your future career.
Harness your determination, dedication and experience to assert yourself in the workplace. Critical reasoning, problem-solving and creative thinking are all skills that will help you stand out from a crowded pool of like-minded professionals. The program’s emphasis on leadership, with modules on influence and persuasion, debate, negotiation and collaboration, ensures you develop attributes that will make you the go-to person in a dynamic and complex workplace. Learn to navigate the friction and turbulence that is part and parcel of the corporate world, devising innovative responses to pressing needs by being exposed to these scenarios for real.
MAKE THINGS HAPPEN...
In today’s rapidly changing business world, success lies in developing and practicing the future-proof skills that keep you ahead of the curve. The Master in Management & Strategy goes beyond teaching what’s happening today and focuses on optimizing the abilities that will be ever-present in the business landscape, no matter what tomorrow holds.
A recent survey by the World Economic Forum found that if you can develop your critical thinking, analysis and problem-solving skills, as well as self-management skills such as active learning, resilience, stress tolerance and flexibility, you'll be well-positioned to thrive in the workplace of tomorrow. In this unique environment, you’ll master the mindset and build the confidence to make an impact.
...WITH THE RIGHT IMPACT SKILLS
To secure the most sought-after roles, you have to prove yourself again and again. That’s why, in this program, you will test your tech, thinking and behavioral skills in a real-world setting. When you graduate, you’ll carry the confidence of someone who’s already led real projects and made a measurable impact.
In international business, finance and STEM—where impact skills are often lacking—social and emotional intelligence are absolutely key. Leaders need to be more human, displaying traits that are only truly built through practical experience and exposure to real workplace environments. The hands-on experience you gain in the Master in Management & Strategy will accelerate your journey to the next best you—and, in the process, down your chosen career path.
SKILLING FOR IMPACT
THINKING SKILLS
Business is about problem-solving, but anyone can solve simple problems. Companies in the business, finance and STEM spheres place a premium on individuals who have the ability to create the most value by analyzing a range of approaches, especially those who can draw upon previous experience of having handled them. Making an impact comes with exploring different angles to problems. That’s why we place an emphasis on creative thinking skills, so you can bring fresh perspectives to challenges with no obvious solution, and then set about actually trying to solve them. Changing the way you think takes time and practice. By navigating practical business situations with real-world challenges, you’ll road-test your skills, perfecting them until thinking for impact becomes an ingrained mindset.
BEHAVIORAL SKILLS
Your impact is directly defined by the actions you take. The Master in Management & Strategy focuses on behavioral awareness, placing you in real-life scenarios with real-life consequences in the business world. The modern workplace demands collaboration, negotiation and debate, so we’ll help you build those traits and become more productive and better able to navigate conflict. Through our experiential program, you’ll have the time and situational exposure to cultivate those behaviors until they come naturally to you. Behavior is like a muscle, and we’ll train you to build yours up for peak performance.
DIGITAL SKILLS
It’s no secret that being comfortable in a digital setting is a prerequisite for today’s business world. Even for digital natives, though, there’s a difference between knowing how to use technology and how to harness it to boost your performance at work. In the Master in Management & Strategy, you’ll master data-based decision-making, developing an understanding of how to collect, analyze and visualize data to make a compelling business case. In short, you’ll take a learn-by-doing approach to making data work for you. The ability to glean actionable insights from mass information is a highly prized asset in the world of business, and this skill will undoubtedly allow you to remain successful throughout your career.
IMPACT SKILLS ACCELERATOR
To navigate the dynamic landscape of work successfully, you need to develop enduring impact skills that will journey with you throughout your career, undeterred by any social, digital or economic shifts. The Impact Skills Accelerator is a crucial component of your Master in Management & Strategy, which will help you develop and refine an essential and unique set of impact skills through comprehensive training. You will be able to think critically, communicate effectively, collaborate with diverse teams and adapt to change—empowering you to really make things happen in the workplace and beyond.
