Rationale

Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a master's degree in business administration, which attracts people from a wide range of academic disciplines.

An MBA is considered a professional Master's degree as well as a traditional or academic Master's degree. However, completion of a professional MBA does not usually result in admission to a Ph.D. (program for research-oriented engagements) although it could be helpful. Schools that offer the MBA are usually known as either management or business schools.

Strategic Renewal: Becoming a High-Performance Organization Strategic Renewal: Becoming a High-Performance Organization

Michael A. Mische, University of Southern California

ISBN: 0-13-021919-3, Publisher: Prentice Hall

The objective of Strategic Renewal is to explore the dynamics of strategy formulation and organizational change with the goal of creating high performance and revitalizing the organization. Unlike more traditional approaches, the intent of Strategic Renewal is not to provide a formula for strategy or prescriptive process for strategy development. The reality is that there is nothing strategic about prescriptive frameworks or the canned strategy models that are offered by management consultants. Rather, Strategic Renewal presents a "point of view" and a general blueprint with deep and contemplative insights into the process and thinking of what it means to craft a strategy for high performance and strategic revitalization.

Association of MBAs

AMBA, the Association of MBAs, is an UK based organization that accredits Doctor of Business Administration, MBA and MSc in management programs of international business schools. It is similar to the AACSB in the USA, but acccredits specific postgraduate programs rather than entire schools.

The list of schools with programs accredited by AMBA can be seen in the link provided below. Some of these schools have obtained EQUIS accreditation in recognition of their overall outstanding performance.
