The ultimate
test of the students in an outstanding MBA program is a "community
test" of their ability to complete a real-life consulting
project, unstructured in nature, meeting both a set deadline
and the client's expectations. This is
the essence of the Action Learning course at the Weatherhead
School of Management.
Through
their consulting projects with professional clients, our students are given the opportunity to work with theories in
practice, testing and adjusting their skills and knowledge
to solve challenging business problems.
For the
past nine years, Weatherhead Action Learning teams have been demonstrating
to the marketplace how well they can apply their critical thinking
skills to real-life projects. They have completed projects
in a broad range of strategic and functional areas in the
US and abroad, many of which are for repeat clients.
