In this project-based subject, students will work with businesses to address real managerial problems using frameworks and concepts acquired during the MBA program. Working in teams, students will apply the skills learned in the programs to identify managerial problems in an ambiguous context, plan and perform appropriate analysis, and derive creative insights that lead to potential solutions, and engage with the relevant stakeholders to drive towards a practically optimal solution. The analysis and proposed solutions will be presented to the business client in a format appropriate for the project, which usually takes the form of a report and presentation to the client.
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of this subject, students should be able to:
- identify and isolate problems in an ambiguous context and recognise whether these problems should be approached from a disciplinary, functional or general management perspective using the tools acquired during the course
- perform independent analysis and demonstrate the ability to use a range of managerial frameworks appropriate to the problem
- recognise the complexity of the context and appreciate that solutions to managerial problems require a balance between creativity and practicality
- present and communicate effectively their work and solutions to business stakeholders
