Do you have a license to lead?

The MBA Highlights programme makes you ready to draw a bigger picture of business management and gives you a ‘License to Lead’. We have carefully chosen six key business areas to strengthen your strategic decision-making and leadership skills.

In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, staying ahead requires not just experience, but also a deep understanding of strategic leadership, customer-centric design, and sustainable business practices. The MBA Highlights programme equips you with the tools and insights necessary to navigate and lead in this complex environment. By combining research-based knowledge with practical applications in areas such as strategic leadership, customer centric business design, marketing & sales, finance and peak performance, this programme offers a comprehensive approach to business education.

Flexible, time-efficient learning for busy professionals

Designed with flexibility in mind, MBA Highlights is ideal for professionals with limited time who are seeking a compact yet impactful business programme. Over just 10 days, you'll develop competence in key business areas that directly influence your career trajectory and your company's success. This programme is particularly suited for experts, managers, executives, and operational management team members who need to balance their education with their ongoing professional responsibilities.

Moreover, MBA Highlights serves as a stepping stone towards the full Hanken Executive MBA. The study days and programme fee can be transferred to the Executive MBA if done within four years, offering a seamless transition for those looking to further their education.

Advantages for companies
