The spirit of discovery, enterprise and progress will be evident in the process and the outcomes, the cycle of practice and reflection will exemplify the experience.
In this MBA applied consulting project, students integrate their knowledge from Module 1 to address the opportunities and/or challenges of host organisations. Under supervision of their professors, and with the support of a nominated project sponsor, student teams identify a significant strategic issue for their host organisation, and combine their strategy, marketing and accounting knowledge to tackle the issue. The output is a presentation and report for the sponsor.
