SBS Swiss Business School And TSIBA Business School Announce Collaboration
SBS Swiss Business School And TSIBA Business School Announce Collaboration. Following its bold migration to the TSIBA Business School state of the art campus in Cape Town, this forward-thinking institution now brings Executive Education at a Global level to this international city. In a unique education collaboration, Zurich-based SBS Swiss Business School will offer two of its most sought-after executive education offerings at TSIBA Business School in March and April 2024.
SBS Swiss Business School and University of Applied Sciences Institute is a leadership and management institution dedicated to preparing students for careers in the global economy. State-of-the-art theory and immersion in international experiences enable SBS course participants to learn far more than management theory and practice. Participants acquire (new) ways of thinking that can profoundly change their lives and the success of their organisations. Towards a broader and shared mission of building leadership capability, the SBS collaboration with TSIBA Business School not only brings the best of international business education to Africa and to Cape Town, it also supports the broader mission of TSIBA – to profoundly change the future trajectory of South Africa’s future business leaders.
Facilitated by Dr Michael Gerlich, PhD, MBA (Cambridge), the following two certificate programmes will run at the TSIBA campus in Cape Town in March and April respectively.
Strategic Analysis and Corporate Foresight – 26th – 28th March 2024
Transformational Leadership: 2nd – 4th April 2024
Dr Michael Gerlich is the Head of Centre for Strategic Corporate Foresight and Sustainability at SBS- Swiss Business School. Michael teaches both undergraduate and postgraduate students and supervises doctoral candidates. In addition to his work with SBS Swiss Business School Dr Gerlich teaches at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. Michael’s distinguished academic contributions are showcased through his publications in leading journals, his role as a reviewer for notable publishers and speaker at international conferences. His 2023 publication, the “Handbook of Strategic Analysis and Corporate Foresight” serves as a crucial resource for both students and practitioners, underlining his significant impact on academic and practical realms of strategic management and foresight.
“In an era of escalating complexity, characterised by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), the traditional paradigms of corporate strategy find themselves increasingly inadequate” says Dr Gerlich. “As entities tasked with the stewardship of vast resources—financial, human, and environmental—corporations must now exhibit qualities of adaptiveness, resilience, and foresight hitherto unparalleled. This sets the stage for an inquiry into the transformative role of strategic corporate foresight and transformative leadership in engineering hyper-adaptive organisations”.
SBS Swiss Business School and TSIBA Business School share a commitment to excellence in business education and to the principle of exceptional value. Accordingly, SBS programmes offered in collaboration with TSIBA are priced for participants from and in Africa.
