MBA TMO programme design
The programme design is based upon a specific understanding of the world - MBA TMO's academic and professional paradigm is reflected in all the modules and is based on three components:
Complexity, Uncertainty and Instability
Complexity, uncertainty and instability are fundamental conditions for business development. The key to success is to adapt to changes and to know that actions beyond your control influence the outcome. At MBA TMO, you learn to incorporate the unpredictable but fundamental factors in your daily work and in relation to strategic trends, competitiveness, organisational design and innovation.
Process orientation
Companies consist of interactions between people, money/numbers and instruments. As a manager, it is necessary to be able to relate people in organisations and not the abstracted “organisational whole”. People act and contribute on the basis of what they find meaningful. Therefore managers must develop skills in communication, negociation and confidence building - as processes that can help you facilitate that people make the right technology for the right market at the right time.
Awareness of methodology
There is no objective true knowledge about, what is going on in the business landscape. There are different proposals of making sense of what is going on and what to do about it. Theories, statistics and feed-back schemes are often used to make sense of what is going on. As a participant of the programme, you will learn how to systematically evaluate the background and rationale for these different kind of methods. There are no standard solutions to the problems your company is facing. As a result, it is essential that you know how to design management methods that meet these challenges. Knowledge of methodology will enable you to make well-qualified decisions, even in the most complex situations.
The three components of the paradigm (Complexity, Process orientation and Awareness of methodology) give the participants a wide range of new approaches and management tools to act in the reality of their company, and this makes it possible to realise innovative strategies and management.
