Mx of Equality (MxE)
In Business & Leadership
About This Programme
“The MBA for the future” – The Mx* of Equality is a world-first leadership development programme for people committed to creating and leading workplaces that provide equality for all, from a different paradigm of leadership – one of trust and freedom, not power and control.
* Why Mx? It’s gender neutral.
Programme Objectives
The programme is designed for leaders who are invested in leading from a different paradigm – from a base of trust and freedom, and not power and control – and who understand the benefits of equality for everyone, including those currently with the most privilege.
Students who participate in the Mx of Equality programme will:
- Learn, practice and hone the personal competencies and skills they need to lead people with more humanity, more awareness and more understanding (of self and others) to create more safety and equality in the workplace.
- Gain access to and understand how to use the frameworks, tools and resources needed to design, implement and lead change across an organisation for a more equitable and equal workplace.
The programme is ideal for:
- Executives and senior leadership teams who are committed to moving towards an equal organisation, at all levels.
- HR and People professionals who’ve been tasked with ‘DEI’ objectives in their company, but without the support required.
- Founders and startups who’d like a roadmap to build their company with equality as a foundation, from the start.
