Introduction
This master’s program is designed for professionals who don’t just want to endure or manage change, but shape it. Do any of these questions resonate with you?
- What if you didn’t just manage change, but truly led it?
- Are you ready to sharpen your vision and help shape the course of your organization?
- Do you feel your influence is falling short, and are you looking for ways to expand it?
- How do you translate your expertise into strategic, system-level impact?
- Are you seeking new perspectives to realign both yourself and your organization?
What do all these questions have in common?
A desire not to work harder, but to move smarter. Not to be a manager of the status quo, but a leader who makes transformation possible.

Why this program
At some point in your career, experience stops being the answer and starts raising new questions. The Executive Master of Management and Organization (MMO) is designed for that turning point.
It’s for leaders, professionals, and change agents who sense that something needs to shift — and want to learn how to make that happen.
What will the program bring you?
In this master’s program, you don’t learn how to become the ‘right’ kind of leader—you learn how to find your role within a complex reality.
You’ll discover how content, process, and context together determine what is truly needed—and how you can respond with greater awareness.
You won’t learn to push harder, but to see more clearly. Not to know more, but to understand more deeply. Not to follow, but to provide direction.
About this program
The Executive Master of Management and Organization consists of ten modules spread over a period of twenty months. You complete the program with a master’s thesis. In this thesis, you can work on a challenge from your own organization. Theory and practice are closely integrated throughout this master’s program. That is why, in the MMO program, you work with interactive lectures, simulations, debates, peer consultation, and experiential learning, among other methods.
In each module, you connect reflection, current insights from academia and practice, and the issues relevant to your organization, with your leadership serving as the common thread.

Business Research Methods
Business Research Methods (BRM) is part of your Master's degree. This module will help you make better decisions in situations where a solution to a problem is not immediately obvious because you are missing some of the information.
For students doing an entire Master's program at TIAS, both BRM modules are mandatory. We recommend doing BRM I at the start of your Master's and BRM II at the end, just before graduation. Talk to your Program Adviser about the best time to schedule BRM I into your personal learning path.
