Executive Development Programmes at SBS

At the University of Strathclyde Business School, we've been helping people discover new ways of working, new ways of developing their true potential, since 1966. Our success stems from a belief that personal growth is indivisible from work development: the more we learn, the more we understand, and the better managers we become.

Long regarded as one of the most innovative business schools in Europe, SBS offers a range of in-depth management development programmes for both the public and private sectors, including the prestigious Strathclyde Master of Business Administration (MBA).

In order to motivate and challenge managers, academics have to understand their audience, and their audience's organisations.
The continued notion of 'useful learning' has resulted in the Strathclyde business faculty attracting a pool of well-known and admired academics, respected not just for their research or teaching but for their consultancy experience.

Organisations at a local, national and international level have benefited from the international business expertise of our Professors and academic team.

A strategic focus is prevalent in much of our work, and such thinking clearly emerges from the formidable strategy team. Professor Colin Eden, internationally known within the field of management science, is consultant to the top management teams of organisations such as Shell International, Reed Business Publishing and Bombardier to name but a few.
