ACADEMIC CURRICULUM
> Leadership
The WIBL Leadership and Management Foundation programme focuses on advancing students in their respective fields. Our holistic approach is geared towards equipping our students with exceptional Leadership and Management competencies. Our philosophy is to remain as close to the realities of daily executive business functions as possible.
To facilitate the application of new theories learned and the integration of different subject areas into a holistic conceptualisation of business, our students will have the opportunity to complete a variety of assignments based on challenging modules. Individual assignments focus on the Division where the student is employed, while the other Assignments focus on the Division/ Department represented by the selected students. Anticipating the diverse and unique backgrounds of our enrolled students, the result will be a multi disciplinary, real time, real world, business experience.
