Director's Introduction

Colin Eden, Professor of Management Science and Strategic Management, Associate Dean and Director of the International Division.

"...we exist to provide quality learning that is related to cutting edge research, industry and management practice..."

"Unlike many of our competitors, our role is not simply that of a commercial enterprise. Rather, we exist to provide quality learning that is related to cutting edge research, industry and management practice. We translate this research, and our wide range of experience of working with management teams, into a learning experience that matches your expectations of a premier business school.

For over 200 years, our University has had a mission to be a 'place of useful learning': that statement still drives us, and distinguishes us from our competitors. In our executive development work, our strength comes from the particular specialist skills of the School's staff, many of whom are internationally renowned for their work. SBS has helped make the difference for hundreds of companies on an international stage."
