I think the MiM is a very good Program for non-business major who realize that they need business knowledge in their careers. I teach the Business Fundamentals I course. This is an intensive introductory course that develops the knowledge of the students about economics and the economy. The economy of a country is the environment that businesses live and thrive in. In the course, the participants get to understand about the economic way of thinking and how economists view the economy from the micro and macroeconomic viewpoint. The course develops the knowledge of the participants to be able to analyze the specific environment and market that firms operate in.                                                        

The MiM program is an intensive one-year Master’s program that needs a serious commitment and enough time to be dedicated for completing the amount of tasks and homework required. This is not meant to scare participants away but to put them in the correct mind set and give them a clear idea of what to expect during this intensive year.

The MiM program offers an excellent opportunity for high potential professionals to build upon their previous educational foundation. The rigor of the program will challenge you in attaining the essential skills required of 21^st century managers. My course (Business Fundamentals II) will not only cover basic organizational structures and processes but will also offer the opportunity for participants to develop and hone their problem-solving and decision-making skills. A willingness to get involved in this very interactive course will ensure you are ready for the challenging and exciting road ahead. 

From the beginning, my career has focused on how to help business leaders get the most from the workforce via systems, processes and the actions of leaders, teams and individuals.  Too many new graduates arrive in the workplace with little to no practical skills in how to effectively interact with others in the workplace.  Quite frequently, they end up learning ineffective management behaviors from bosses who never learned how to effectively lead and/or motivate.  My goal is to help change that for you, putting you on the fast track to professional success.  Regardless of your interest in the HR function, I want to help you enhance your leadership and influencing skills.  Regardless of your interest in being a leader, I would like to help you develop the skills to get the buy-in and support from others.  The growth you achieve in this course will be the result of a joint effort.  I will help educate and coach you.  You will need to try new things, be open to feedback and practice.

There are so many interesting topics and so many thought-provoking discussions and novel viewpoints. I aim to share some of my knowledge and experience with the students but equally I hope to learn from them as well. 

Students will learn to apply the conceptual framework that is used to understand how business transactions are recorded and analysed for strategic planning, risk management and performance analysis. Classes will feature case studies and students will be put into groups to deal with real-world events.

The Financial Management course will teach students the framework that is used in analyzing financial management challenges and problems of business enterprises. Classes will feature case studies and students will be put into groups to deal with real-world events.

In my opinion, MIM program mission is to nurture global leaders and resilient professionals who aspire to become top-notch influencers and innovators in their selected specialization. For this reason, the course mission is help students to foster their “winning mindsets” and “value-centric insights” when chasing high-impact initiatives and ambitious goals. I personally feel that if we are not willing to risk the unusual, we will have to settle down for the ordinary. Therefore, the course focuses on how to design empowering strategies that leverage “competitive edge” and “blueprint for action” that aim at force-multiplying the rate of success in any fields of endeavor.                                                                                  

 I truly believe that how high we rise; it is mainly determined by how high we want to climb. My advice to students is to reflect deeply before starting the class on “what person I will and want to become after taking this class” rather than what I will know after taking this class. This initial disposition will help all of us to contextualize all that we do in class to our ultimate mission.  

Leadership has a strong, positive, quantifiable record of driving desirable business outcomes such as profit, sales, shareholder value, engagement, loyalty, motivation, commitment, and retention, among others. To be successful, executives must exhibit strong personal leadership qualities while also driving great leadership behaviors deep into their organizations.
The course is designed to give you an in-depth look at a dynamically changing company via live virtual instruction and 24/7 on-demand access to content, assignments, and lectures. Being successful in this course puts a great deal of responsibility in your hands.

The course is comprised of three components: Topic Lectures, Case Study Analysis and Discussion, and Hands-On management of a “mock” company (KGW Health) where the changes you propose to the company’s human capital (especially its current and potential leaders) will be monetized; and the impact on customer and financial outcomes will be evaluated, discussed, and graded.

This marketing management course is designed to provide a hands-on understanding of the basic concepts of marketing and also enable students to see these concepts applied in daily practice.

The key concept is based on allowing students to put their marketing knowledge into action based on their future career positions. Therefore, the course provides a general introduction into the topic of marketing in the beginning and then dives into key issues marketers face in their daily practice. It also brings students closer to important elements such as social media marketing and the rapid changing environment of innovations and disruptions companies face these days and, finally, addresses digital media in Japan.

On an organizational level, students learn how marketing is operating within the company and about the different partners and stakeholders involved. This course also touches on new concepts of marketing that are now being discussed and applied in the field using behavioral economics as an example. 

On a personal level, this course will investigate personal branding, how to prepare for presenting ideas and concepts to people within and outside the organization and how to grow critical thinking skills. This should help with future career paths and self-development which is one of its core goals.

I LOVE the MiM because it fits an unserved niche. The MiM prepares new graduates with non-business disciplines for careers in management, and the integrated approach prepares them to be leaders in their field—and they get to study in Japan! My role as a coach through their capstone project allows me to engage with each student individually and helps them craft their “career message” that can propel them forward.
