BUSINESS AND BEYOND
At Hult, you’ll learn
about yourself
We all have strengths and
weaknesses, so at Hult you’ll
learn how you can improve
on both.
You can improve anything with practice
The fact is, we all have things we’re good at and things we
struggle with. Many of these attributes are determined by
our genes and our upbringing. But at Hult, we believe that
rather than just accepting these are impossible to change,
it’s important to realize that we can build on our strengths
and overcome our weaknesses. Because, as with any skill,
we can improve with practice.
Skills such as being able to communicate clearly, being
able to work in teams, influence others, and simplify
complex problems are as important to success in business
as having knowledge of the fundamental disciplines, such
as finance, marketing, and operations. At Hult, you’ll work
on both types of skills.
Students put their creative problem-solving skills
to the test in a team challenge.
Learn to lead
We’ve taken advanced practices from leadership
development courses and built them into all our degree
programs. It’s this approach that earned us the 2014 AMBA
Innovation Award.
During the early part of your program, you’ll examine
your personal attributes and what your strengths and
weaknesses are on a number of leadership dimensions.
Then, throughout the rest of the program, you’ll be given
the opportunity to focus on a selection of key skills that
you’ll improve through practice as well as faculty guidance
and peer-to-peer feedback.
Graduate with a growth mindset
No matter what your starting point on each of these
key leadership skills, you can improve through constant
practice and feedback. This proven technique means
that you’ll not only be more self-aware and able to make
better decisions, you’ll also be able to see your behaviors
changing and feel your effectiveness in groups and
organizations increasing.
