I encourage you to participate and provide your input through this survey, which should take you no more than 15 minutes to complete. The deadline to submit this survey is midnight on Monday, October 1st and the summary of the results will be discussed in class on Thursday, October 4th. We hope to address areas of improvement that matter to you the most.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation. We appreciate your support in our efforts of ongoing improvements to the UBC Full-time MBA Program.

This is a reminder that the Leadership/Creativity Integrated Theme Workshop: Creativity & Collaboration will be held from 2:00pm to 4:00pm this Thursday, September 27th at the Asian Centre (auditorium). Working with a composer and professional string trio, we will explore creativity as a collaborative process, attending to the roles of leadership, teamwork & communication. Attendance is mandatory.

Please note that lunch will be provided starting at 1:00pm.

Asian Centre (1871 West Mall) is approximately 10 minutes away from the Henry Angus Building. Please visit http://www.maps.ubc.ca/PROD/index_detail.php?locat1=046 for its exact location on campus.

As you may already know, prior to the voting process it was made clear that whatever the majority voted for is the way that the student teams will be assigned – without any exceptions to maintain fairness among all students. As result, the majority of the class had decided that they would prefer to have the Integrated Foundation Team allocate them into pre-assigned teams for upcoming the business plan project. 

Thanks for your votes!
