The first half of 2016 has been a wild ride for the MBA Full Time Intensive cohort at the University of Western Australia (UWA). We had to get through the forming, storming and norming process very quickly as it was apparent that we would be spending A LOT of time together and needed to be a high-performing team if we were to succeed. Over the last six months we have formed a tight-knit cohort and I can proudly say that no person has been left behind, despite the incredibly fast pace of our curriculum.
As I pass the half-way point in the MBA program at the UWA Business School I have found this an excellent time to reflect on the year so far. We have been educated in several vital business disciplines such as accounting, statistics, finance, economics, organisational behaviour and marketing. However, while I have read many textbooks, some of my biggest takeaways from the course so far have been above and beyond traditional MBA coursework.
