The Executive MBA in Aboriginal Business and Leadership explores contemporary business issues and knowledge while recognizing that the traditional protocols and ways of understanding the world are also growing and changing as new generations assume responsibility for moving forward. The program includes the core concepts and knowledge included in most MBA programs, but it does so in a way that respects that other forms of knowledge and ways of knowing are also important.
Business and economic development education are increasingly important to First Nations in terms of establishing independent sources of income and control over traditional territories. Business skills and knowledge are also important in protecting and growing resources available through impact benefit agreements or revenue sharing arrangements with governments. On an individual level, Aboriginal people are increasingly turning to entrepreneurial activities as a way to build security for their families and as a means of expressing their independence and creativity.
The Beedie School has many years of experience customizing programs and courses to meet the needs of individual students and is used to working with adults who have already proved themselves but want to enhance their capacities.
