Stimulating Self-Directed Learning Through the Managerial Assessment and Development Course

Abstract

To address common criticisms of MBA graduates, the Weatherhead School of Management developed a new curriculum including a required course called Mana- gerial Assessment and Development. During the course, students develop an assess- ment of strengths and weaknesses on 22 abilities, 11 knowledge areas, and 5 value themes. The assessment incorporates rigorously coded assessment exercises, self- assessment, and assessment from others (i.e., family, friends, coworkers, managers, etc.). In the context of a 12-person Executive Action Team, each student develops a personal Learning Plan to stimulate and guide development during the entire MBA program.
