London, United Kingdom
A reimagined MBA
We built our specialist one-year part-time Executive MSc Social Business and Entrepreneurship programme (EMSBE) at LSE to support, what we consider to be, the most important movement in the world – sustainability-driven, impact-driven and purpose-driven action.
We have come to the view that MBAs, governing entirely how we think about starting, funding, and running firms for 70 years, have had a negative influence on the state of the world. They have prioritised shareholder returns over social impact and have minimised the negative effects and extractive practices on the globe.
Making a profit doesn't have to mean compromising on social purpose. Designed for working professionals, our Executive MSc programme is a reimagined MBA that takes a fresh impact-focused approach to traditional MBA topics. You will gain the knowledge and skills needed to undertake a career in social business, whether that be bringing purpose to your corporate role, launching your own social enterprise, or transitioning to an impact-driven industry.
