Center for General Management

General Management forms the core of all MBA programs. It serves as a cross-cutting discipline on which both industry-specific and function-specific specializations are built.

Across individual subject areas, prospective as well as experienced managers acquire theoretically grounded management skills with a strong practical orientation. The content is taught in preparatory and core courses on campus in both German and English.

In the online distance-learning format, these courses are currently offered only in German.

Take the leap forward.

The MBA programs in Executive Education and Advanced Management at the Danube Business School rank among the leading study programs designed to equip both individuals and entire organizations with the tools to achieve peak performance. Our internationally oriented faculty applies cutting-edge research to practical business contexts; distinguished executives challenge and encourage participants to think and act beyond their usual frameworks.

Through tailored concepts and best-practice approaches, our programs enable participants to address both individual and organizational challenges successfully. Students benefit from opportunities to exchange experiences with executives from a wide range of industries, to learn from one another, and to build lasting networks. Participants are encouraged to reflect on their leadership style, refine their interpersonal skills, put their ideas into practice, and unlock their full potential for continued growth.

Mind the future. Knowledge for the organizations and leadership of tomorrow.

Models and tools of organization and leadership reflect the challenges of their time. The dynamic and complex environment of the future requires not only adapted behavior within existing paradigms, but a fundamental rethinking of what organizations are and how they can be led.

In the Future Organizations track, we equip leaders with interdisciplinary knowledge and the tools to meet the evolving demands of volatile, complex, and digitalized organizations.
