MBA Consultancy for Innovation and Change

You will study four modules on the course that will build and consolidate your skills, knowledge and know-how. You will learn through seminars, workshops, participation in weekly innovation teams and course salons, where the focus is on purposeful learning, sharing of ideas, expertise and creative problem-solving. The learning is challenge-based and project-driven, with a focus on interdisciplinary inquiry, research and collaborative learning, supported by the Claude Littner Business School and peer coaching.

Coaching - All learning will be project-based. You will regularly review your own work and learn how to peer-coach through receiving and giving feedback to classmates on projects. You will have a learning buddy within your team, through peer coaching and challenges, you will learn to excel under pressure.

Innovation teams - Teamwork and action learning is fundamental to this MBA. As part of an Innovation Team you will learn to collaborate on module assignments framed as consultancy projects.

Assessment - All assignments are posed as challenges that drive learning. You will start work on an assignment in the first week of each module, reviewing project challenges and module assignments throughout with your Innovation Team. Assessments include consultancy reports, presentations, a viva and a final boardroom presentation.

Deep learning - There is an iterative model behind the four modules, where the progression from module one through to module four mirrors, the thinking process of moving progressively from understanding of general principles of project design and leadership (module one) to problem definition (module two) to ideation of innovation solution (module three), to prototype and scaling (module four). This is how we define deep and iterative learning, over time.
