Hult wins AMBA’s 2014 MBA Innovation Award Hult is proud to announce its most recent accomplishment: winning the Association of MBAs’ (AMBA) 2014 MBA Innovation Award for the redesigned One-Year MBA Curriculum. Our new MBA curriculum beat over a hundred other educational institutions to win the acclaimed award. Hult redesigned the One-Year MBA curriculum to fully integrate the teaching of critical soft skills and measure students’ development in a systematic and comprehensive way. Using five key competencies (Adaptive Thinking, Communication, Building Relationships, Teamwork, and Execution) identified by employers as essential to success in the workplace, MBA students work on improving these competencies throughout the program through a blend of training, mentorship, and feedback from peers, faculty, and professional development specialists. Andrew Main Wilson, AMBA Chief Executive, had this to say of Hult’s win: “The fact that Hult International Business School created an MBA program in close consultation with leading employers, designed to deliver performance-ready MBAs to make a major impact in their roles from day one, is both extremely impressive and much in tune with the needs of modern business.” Bloomberg Businessweek ranks Hult #21 F
