The Anti-MBA

LANGDALE, ENGLAND — Of all the management courses in all the world, there are probably a few

others that tell students they will need hiking boots and waterproof jackets.

There may be a few that put “The Prelude,” the 19th-century poet William Wordsworth’s

autobiographical masterpiece, on their reading lists, or that drag high-flying executives to a Quaker

meeting for a period of silent reflection.

However, it is hard to think of anywhere outside of the International Masters Program in Practical

Management that begins by telling the students that most graduate business degrees “are destructive”

or that the case-study method, the hallowed approach adopted by Harvard and many of the world’s

other leading business schools, is actually “demeaning.”

But then, most management courses don’t have Henry Mintzberg. A professor of management studies

at McGill University in Montreal, Dr. Mintzberg holds two graduate degrees in management from the

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. But since at least 2004, when he published his book “Managers

Not M.B.A.s,” he has acquired a hard-earned reputation as the scourge of conventional management

education. The rise of the business-school-trained M.B.A., he says, is “a menace to society.”

IMPM – The managers emba

• IMPM is based on 5 managerial mindsets.

• IMPM is designed around the experiences and needs of

you as a manager and your organization.

• IMPM is an international program taking place in 5

different locales over a period of 16 months. You return

to your work after each 10 day module.

• IMPM is for accomplished managers who feel they need

further leadership development to take their career and

their organization to the next level.

• IMPM results in a Masters of Management Degree from

McGill University or a MSc International Masters in

Executive Management from Lancaster University

Everything is Different

• How you sit – together

• What you do – reflect on experience

• Where you go – around the world

• How you return - worldly
