About The Program
This flexible online blended programme is designed for busy professionals, executives, and business leaders seeking a quality management education without having to take a career or business break.

‘A High-Quality Education Offering Cross-Cultural Experiences’
Our MEMBA curriculum covers a comprehensive understanding of conducting business in emerging economies and is taught through practical learning using real-life African and international case studies and interactive sessions between participants and facilitators. The curriculum includes elective courses in negotiation, digital business, and technology management, which can be taken during the optional international immersion trips with partner business schools in Asia, America, Africa, and Europe.
This programme is perfect for those seeking to gain a high-quality education and cross-cultural experiences in emerging markets. You will have classmates from different countries and backgrounds, providing opportunities to share knowledge and perspectives in your specific sectors. The flexible schedule allows you to balance the programme with your current employment or entrepreneurial commitments. It also provides the unmatched benefit of simultaneously learning and applying the best management practices on the go.
At the end of this programme, you would have gained valuable business connections, leadership, managerial, and entrepreneurship skills to advance your career or business, increase your earning potential and capacity to lead with confidence.
The 24-month programme has three key elements:
- Pre-Module Learning Activities (Online): These sessions involve having a number of online group meetings per course where cases are analysed and discussed among group members.
- On-Campus Learning Sessions (Physical): These are weeks of intensive sessions at LBS Campus, which are held once a week every two months. The international module is part of these sessions.
- Post-Module Learning Activities (Online): These are two sets of activities to help participants apply the learning points from class sessions to the workplace – online discussion forums and practice-based learning activities.
