THE FOUR PILLARS OF THIS PROGRAM
Business for a better world
Business makes an impact—on people, the planet and communities. To ensure that impact is positive, this program gives you the tools to empower organizations to make informed decisions on strategy, risk, compliance and governance in pursuit of international sustainability
Resilience in the face of volatility
Geopolitical uncertainty has engulfed the world. At some point, most businesses or organizations will face the reality of tackling crises or existential challenges. The building blocks that underpin the resilience required to withstand those moments, and come out the other side stronger, run through the program’s core.
Practical, evidential research to inform best practice
The program’s thesis project involves investigating a substantial business problem and researching, analyzing and presenting a strategy to overcome it. Applying what you’ve learned to real challenges, including the rigorous discipline of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, helps students put the holistic learning of the program into practical focus.
Sustainability as a business imperative
Sustainability, good governance, strict and complete compliance—these are not desirable add-ons for successful business. They’re now as much an imperative for sustainable growth as any other metric. The program’s fourth pillar is sustainability as a strategic tool in a business ecosystem characterized by globalization, tech disruption and worldwide uncertainty.
