The University of Edinburgh

Overview

This Master of Business Administration (Online Learning) MBA program from The University of Edinburgh is designed for professionals with at least three years of work experience including managerial responsibility who wish to progress to a more senior role in the UK or internationally.

Studying business, strategy and leadership, you’ll build a holistic view of organisations and develop the personal skills needed to bring your ideas to life.

Professional Development provides you with an opportunity to reflect upon your own personal strengths and development needs. You will gain increased self-awareness through developing a better understanding of yourself as an individual, team player, leader, manager, and learner. We use a range of online diagnostic tools to help facilitate this process.

Pre-recorded lectures and online tutorials will enable you to put your learning directly into practice back in your workplace.

• Influencing with confidence

• Managing conflict

• Teamwork and Belbin theory

• Leading high-performance teams

• Skills and awareness in productive conversations and giving feedback
