An MBA Program That Gets Things Done

The meaning of business is changing. Today’s entrepreneurs are concerned with more than just turning a profit. They are driven to serve and leave a lasting impact in their communities. They are pursuing ethically conscious business models that solve problems and aim at creating positive outcomes for society. Creating social value, not just making a buck, is the new rationale for starting a business – not profits over people, but startups with soul. And increasingly, the field is open to anyone with sufficient ambition. With the right contacts, skills, and know-how, the opportunities are boundless for aspiring business owners to realize their dreams.

As the Harvard Business Review reports, “most founders believe their start-ups are about more than their business models.” Preserving a sense of purpose has been shown to lead to stronger, more resilient organizations. Accordingly, cutting-edge, graduate business education should integrate these needs. It should also be practical, giving students an opportunity to get their hands dirty in the fields they plan to enter. Tomorrow’s founders are looking today for the techniques and knowledge that will help them navigate the uncertainties of an ever-changing business climate.

The coronavirus pandemic has transformed the way organizations function, prompting them to seek leaders who are adaptable to change and ready to face whatever the future might throw at them. In short, they need leaders who know how to get things done. At NLU, this is precisely what our MBA students are educated and trained to do.
