The Master of Business Administration (MBA) is commonly recognised as the optimum degree for people seeking a career in strategic management. In this specialisation (Women in Leadership), you will build on your understanding that organisations that value diversity outperform organisations that value homogeneity. You will discover how to change the culture of an organisation to one that prioritises justice and equity.
