Management - B6041

Management

Master's degree

The contemporary business landscape is always changing. As a result, the expectations placed on today’s business leaders are constantly evolving too. Today, great management is about more than leading an organisation to success. It’s about leading and inspiring positive change as well – both for the people that make up a company’s workforce or supply chain and broader society too.

And what sorts of challenges, expectations and opportunities will our business leaders face beyond tomorrow? The Master of Management equips you with the understanding to respond to what comes next – and the expertise to bring altogether higher calibre leadership to your own career.

MAKE YOUR NEXT MOVE

As you develop a more advanced knowledge of contemporary management theory, you’ll be challenged to uncover innovative solutions to complex management problems in our digitally-driven, interconnected world. Considering how businesses can operate more sustainably – and shape a culture that prioritises people – is a vital part of the program, with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals core of its DNA.

ELEVATE YOUR EXPERTISE

With the option to complete this program in just one year, you’ll be more ready to lead those around you to make a more positive impact, in less time. It’s a progressive degree designed to challenge bright business minds – and evolve your expertise in exciting and inspiring ways.
