Practitioners

Our MBA programme “European Management” is your chance:

  • If you are already working in a company and willing to take the next step in your career, though you lack the necessary managerial know-how to take on a leading position. We know that much is expected from future leaders. We offer compact professional knowledge from human resource management to business development. Practice-relevant case-studies oriented on real business issues give you the opportunity to train for possible business situations and to adapt to your new position.
  • If you plan to found your own company, but are not aware of the risks that it entails. Most entrepreneurs identify financial problems as the biggest risk. But this problem is in fact only the consequence of previous bad decisions. An inappropriate marketing tool, an incorrect distribution concept or an unsuitable management approach have serious consequences on the yield of a newly founded company. It is therefore crucial that the entrepreneurs understand the complexity of the market and of their own company at an early stage in order to avoid possible risks. We provide you an insight into the different management areas and sharpen the view for potential errors and sources of risk.
