Supporting MBA Students on the Path to Success: Transformative Learning Experiences within a Leadership Foundations Course

Leadership Development, Transformative Learning

This research presentation explores the outcomes of introducing a Transformative Learning Experience (TLE) within a Leadership Foundations course for students at the start of a MBA program. Student TLE reports were analyzed in order to determine next steps and adjustments needed within the program to ensure students are transitioning well to their new academic context and acquiring the necessary learning and skills for success. The presentation will outline the necessary adjustments needed for the program and examine how transformative learning experiences are used in the classroom to help instructors in supporting students to navigate the changing currents in higher education.
