FOCUSING ON WHAT MATTERS MOST
Purpose is the key to a long-lasting and fulfilling career. It’s what motivates you through difficult moments and keeps your feet on the ground when you find success. It’s what drives you to keep challenging yourself. It’s what brings meaning to your work.
Purpose can be elusive, especially at first. You might not have a clear sense of yours, but we’ll work with you to uncover your passions and motivations, until you develop a sharper picture of what matters to you. It’s a journey of self-discovery, but one the Master in Talent Development & Human Resources is designed to help you make. And as your sense of purpose evolves and matures, we’ll curate a learning experience that helps you embed it as the foundation of your career.
At IE Business School, we believe professionals share a responsibility to the planet, to society, and to the wellbeing of others. We call it Business With Purpose. As a graduate specializing in people and talent, you’ll be at the heart of that mission. With our expert guidance throughout the program, you’ll emerge as a leader ready to bring positive change in the ways that matter most to you.
ADDING VALUE THROUGH PURPOSE
Planet
One of our key concepts, Sustainable Business is the belief that the next generation of professionals should be a force for positive change in the world. More than just an idea, this cornerstone of our program teaches the practical ways that business can improve lives, protect the environment, and contribute to the community. Through the program, you’ll gain full understanding of the concepts and initiatives that make Sustainable Business a reality. And as HR professionals, you’ll be ideally placed to lead the integration of sustainable practices into every part of the organizations in which you work.
Society
An entrepreneurial mindset brings innovative solutions to enduring social issues. We call this Social Entrepreneurship. On the Master in Talent Development & Human Resources, you’ll learn how to apply your thinking and analytical skills for the benefit of the people and communities around you. The same teaching and practical experiences that prepare you for the world of work will make you an effective problem-solver for society at large. We’ll show you how to turn your learning into a force for the greater good.
People
As a student on the Master in Talent Development & Human Resources, you’ll already share our belief that people matter just as much as results. We call this Working Well. The success of a business is defined by the success of its people, and an inclusive workplace that prioritizes employee wellbeing is an environment where colleagues can thrive. By learning how to foster an organizational culture that nurtures talent, model positive leadership, and build teams that make diversity their strength, you’ll become a people expert who gets the best out of everyone around them.
