Dagens industri launches condensed Executive MBA for managers

Dagens industri has launched the Executive Education Core MBA, a concentrated business leadership program designed for working executives. The initiative, a collaboration between Di Close, Di Akademi, and River Jump, aims to address the barriers of traditional MBA programs, which are often criticized for being expensive and requiring significant time away from professional duties.

Niklas Grewin, business manager at Di Close, describes the program as a ‘driving license’ in business leadership rather than a narrow specialization. The curriculum is structured into five modules of two days each, spanning approximately one year. Unlike traditional MBAs that may require 50 to 60 days of study, this format focuses on ten days of essential, high-relevance content to allow managers to balance education with their ongoing professional responsibilities.
