Our experience and academic research have shown that there is no single way of enriching management knowledge which is why we employ a balanced methodology that combines theory with practice, rather than solely focusing on the case method. The ESADE MBA’s methodology varies according to each subject’s objectives and the skills, attitudes and behavioural patterns to be fostered.
Classroom theory is important to acquiring management knowledge but there is no substitute for practice in order to ingrain the decision making skills executives face on a daily basis. To this end, the Full Time MBA includes small and active classes, case study discussions, simulation games, teamwork, tutorials and role-play exercises, among other activities. In short, everything to ensure the business world is reflected in all its complexity.
Simulating real working conditions, cross-functional and multicultural teamwork are integral pillars of our cooperative methodology. With over 40 nationalities represented on-campus, diversity is leveraged by structuring integrated teams representing different geographic, academic and professional backgrounds. This approach fosters leadership, team working, negotiation and project management skills as well as conferring a global outlook.
The ESADE MBA also places a strong emphasis on entrepreneurship as a means to creating value for organisations and the development of leadership competencies through the LEAD programme.
Given the select number of participants on the Full Time MBA, one of our key strengths is the degree of personalised attention we are able to provide each participant. This personalised approach will be evident throughout your time at
