How we develop our global talent

Working in a multinational cohort alongside academic faculty, business leaders and MBA alumni, our participants have access to inspiring conversations, challenging ideas, and innovative thinking. This vibrant learning environment provides the stimulus and support needed to prepare them for the impact that they will make in their future employment.

The Exeter MBA places personal transformation at its heart, supporting participants to develop the skills and mindset needed to lead within an uncertain global environment.

The existing knowledge, skills, professional experience and personal attributes of our participants forms the focus of ongoing personal reflection which results in an enhanced self-awareness. This stronger sense of “self” coupled with new knowledge gained from across their programme equips aspiring leaders with the confidence and tenacity to apply their learning to real-world issues.

By working with our leading partners on real business challenges, our participants have developed the essential communication, collaboration, and creative-thinking skills needed to bring value to their Consultancy Projects.

Each participant is unique. What they share is a deep sense of purpose in their work, creating positive impact and creating change – for good.

We need an MBA that is meaningful. The University of Exeter Business School had the foresight to create the One Planet MBA. We know what we have to do to contribute to a more sustainable future. We have the possibilities to do it but we need the will power to do it and the will power is Leadership. That is why the MBA at Exeter is a great programme.”
