Lancaster Global MBA (Jordan)
GMBA Overview
The programme progressively develops knowledge, understanding and skills through stages. Part 1a focuses on core organisational functions and processes – Organisational behaviour, Managing operations, Marketing management, Business economics, Management accounting, and Finance. Part 1b builds on this functional knowledge to develop a more strategic perspective and to draw together the functional and strategic so that participants approach organisational and managerial issues in a more integrative manner. This part of the programme covers Strategic management and Managing change and also provides an opportunity to apply the knowledge, gained through the programme to date, through the Integrative Case Examinations. As an integrating mechanism across the first two parts of the programme and to provide the opportunity for students to further develop their understanding and skills in the practice of managing and organising the Perspectives on managing and organising module will run across the first two parts of the programme focusing on individual and organisational learning. Part 2 of the programme continues the integrative theme with a group based consultancy activity that requires participants to draw on the preceding elements of the programme to develop actionable recommendations for client organisations and an individual organisational project which provides the opportunity for participants to focus their learning by addressing a particular area of organisational concern and so develop greater insight into a specific areas of management and business and a more critical insight in to organisational practice.
