Introduction

We hope that the New Year is off to a good start for all of you despite the challenges posed by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In January, we were pleased to welcome new students in our extra intakes of the Master in Management and full-time MBA programs. Meanwhile, our Executive MBA students tackled an intensive new module.

The renewal of the AMBA accreditation for our residential and global MBA, Master of Arts in Management (MM) and DBA programs confirmed once again the distinctive excellence of each program. More than ever, MSM is committed to sustainable development through responsible management education and capacity-building projects. Our new blog series explores pathways to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations. Our first blog focuses on SDG8 and youth employment. This newsletter also includes updates on four of our ongoing capacity-building projects in Ethiopia, Indonesia, the Sahel region and Rwanda.

MSM provides you with a safe environment to pursue your career development and leadership growth. In the upcoming months you can meet with us through our many online events. Finally, kindly note that all Executive Education programs before the summer holidays will take place online.

Best wishes, and stay healthy,

Meinhard Gans
Chief Excutive Officer
