AMERICAN BUSINESS SCHOOL OF MILAN
About Us
Business and management training: ABSM – American Business School of Milan is the product of the union between these two elements.
ABSM offers its students an all-encompassing education, combining academic learning with practical experience provided by the top managers of some of the leading companies on the Italian and international scene.
The ABSM training model is rooted in American-based managerial tradition, is strongly pragmatic and anchored in well-established business practices, but perfectly integrated in the Italian context.
Students of ABSM Masters and courses will be provided with a global perspective, the tools to develop their managerial skills, and a strategic vision which is in line with the growing demand for highly specialized profiles by multinationals and small and medium-sized companies to compete in international markets.
The learning process benefits from a stimulating international environment which, in turn, fosters horizontal networking which encourages the exchange of know-how.
Crafted on the ideas and experience of the CEOs and top managers who make up our faculty, and under the careful supervision of the Scientific Committee and the prestigious Advisory Board, the courses offered by ABSM include diversified syllabi based on the needs of students and companies, exploring subjects of accounting, finance, marketing, operations management, organizational behavior, entrepreneurship, and strategy.
ABSM’s educational programs consist of three Masters degrees oriented towards general management (MBA), Human Resources (Master in People, Organization and Culture), and Sustainability Management (Master in ESG’s Leadership).
Shaping the leaders of tomorrow
Our Mission
The American Business School of Milan was born from the idea of a group of entrepreneurs and academics aimed at creating a business school capable of training “business-friendly” professionals, excellent managers, and future entrepreneurs capable of approaching the job market with an enlightened vision in line with the times.
In an era of rapid and unstoppable change, geopolitical, economic, social, financial and industrial scenarios are changing at an unprecedented speed, creating a pressing need for companies to adapt and respond quickly to new challenges.
Today, this ability to adapt and respond quickly is not only a competitive edge, but a matter of survival for companies across the global landscape. This is why the American Business School of Milan provides an innovative solution aimed at building competencies and skills that look to the evolution of business.
Traditional business schools can no longer respond effectively to the dynamic needs of the business world.
Too often, curricula are static and disconnected from real market needs. In Italy, a lack of skills is a critical problem and negatively affects our country’s ability to compete internationally.
For this reason, the vision of the American Business School of Milan is to create a next-generation business school that does not simply pass on academic knowledge, but builds practical and up-to-date skills, constantly responding to market and business needs.
“It is not the strongest species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.”
