Executive MBA

The EMBA programme gives you the best preparation for an entrepreneurial or management career in Africa and the world. The programme is meant for managers who desire to learn and simultaneously apply best practices in management to deal with challenges in the workplace. 


Though not focused exclusively on healthcare, our EMBA curriculum is broad enough to be highly relevant to professionals across sectors, including healthcare. It offers a comprehensive understanding of business operations in emerging markets, particularly in Nigeria and Africa. Participants will engage in practical learning via real-life African case studies and interactive dialogues with industry experts. Moreover, elective courses in areas like negotiation, digital business, and technology management offer valuable skill sets that are translatable to healthcare settings. These can be pursued during optional international immersion trips in collaboration with reputable business schools across Asia, America, Africa, and Europe.


In today's interconnected world, it's critical for professionals to understand the global trends and opportunities that may influence their sectors. Our Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM) facilitates this, providing healthcare leaders with insights into international best practices and emerging global trends.


Embarking on our EMBA programme is a transformative experience, outfitting you with the essential business management knowledge and innovative thought processes necessary for effective competition in any sector, including healthcare.


The programme's flexible schedule enables you to harmonise your studies with your existing job or entrepreneurial endeavours, affording you the unparalleled benefit of applying learned management practices directly to your current role.


The 24-month course is structured into six 14-week semesters over the course of two academic years. Each academic session starts in January and concludes in December, with a five-day intensive week incorporated once every semester. For additional information on class schedules, please refer to the brochure.


Learning at LBS is collaborative as participants work within groups, sharing responsibilities and learning from each other’s experience. The case study method is the main pedagogical tool used at LBS, thus exposing you in a practical way to the challenges faced by managers in different industries.
