LUISS Business School: What is the Future of the MBA?

ROME, October 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

The MBA programme is a sort of watershed, a turnaround in the professional and personal life of its students. Its experience is a boost to skills, because of the wide and solid background learnt; to business vision, because of the multiethnic and international approach, rapid execution, management by objectives, and team work.

In very recent years, the MBA has changed deeply because of the economic downturn, technology changes, needs for customisation, and raising of global competition. Prospective students want specific topics from the Business School experience, such as focus on soft skills and applied experience, great attention to career service, corporate connections, entrepreneurship, and strategic networking; a growing demand for specialist MBAs.

LUISS Business School is always fully embedded in working at the "transformation" of its students through:

• action-based learning methods, aimed to peer-to-peer interaction with seminars, role-playing, case-studies, business games, team and project works.
• Labs, such as Creativity Lab, aimed to match creativity and business; Big Data Lab, aimed to provide with skills about Big Data and Business Analytics; ERS Lab, where to carry on projects on ethics, responsibility and sustainability; Soft Skills Lab, aimed to improve relevant topics such as leadership, relationship management, visioning, in order to trainee talents with a strong can-do-attitude.
• the Key Corporate Partners, which are part of the Corporate Advisory Board in the MBA, in order to assure a wide business network and a strong relevance to the curricula.

LUISS Business School also attempts to anticipate the mentioned market trend related to specialised MBAs through its boutique service concept, with strong and very customised specializations according to the sectors which are the best and well-reputed expression of Made in Italy.
