What is an Intercultural Mini-MBA?
A mini/micro-MBA is becoming popular around the world but it tends to only explain global best practices. An intercultural mini MBA explains in a. practical way to how to adapt and apply those lessons for use in a Japan-based organization.
Our program not only teaches the practical skills and mindset necessary for a global workplace but it has been developed in conjunction with experts in the field from Japan’s top universities, so it also includes academic content and advanced study skills that one would ordinarily gain from a full MBA.
This program is fully bilingual, and includes appreciation of Japan’s unique strengths in team-based organizations and how to bridge gaps with global counterparts which focus on individuals,
Because it explains both Japanese and global leadership and management styles, you can apply your learnings straight away in your own “hybrid” organization.
Fully bilingual - so you can join now and learn the concepts even if you speak only Japanese, and learn the English communication skills during or after the program.
If you want to go overseas for a full MBA, Taking our intercultural bilingual mini-MBA beforehand builds the right mindset and skills to succeed there, and creates practical frameworks and ideas for applying the learnings to a global Japanese organization afterwards.
