Asian leg of INSEAD'S management programme starts in Singapore

Since its launch, 70% of the programme’s classes were held face-to-face.

Graduate business school INSEAD’s Master in Management (MIM) programme has embarked on the next phase of the learning journey at the school’s Asia campus in Singapore after 94 students from 32 countries came together last 8 March.

According to a media release, 20 March will be heralded as the MIM Unification Day, which would be a new tradition specifically created for the programme.

“Future MIM cohorts will celebrate every 20 March [with] values now ingrained in this new programme’s identity: togetherness, resilience, gratitude, and generosity,” INSEAD said.

Whilst it has been the norm for many schools to hold online classes due to COVID-19 pandemic, INSEAD has maintained in-person classes which adhered to strict health and safety measures, moving to a hybrid model when required.

“Since the programme began, more than 70% of the MIM classes have been conducted face-to-face, a considerable achievement considering the circumstances; when classes were held on-campus, students who had to stay at home could connect directly to the classroom to engage with the professor or their peers sitting in the room,” INSEAD added.

The MIM programme made its debut seven months ago.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
