Article Abstract:
Angela Dumas, head of the Centre for Design Management at the London Business School, has developed interactive learning at the basis for all teaching at the business school. Her unit is able to offer MBA courses, mainly for executives from large companies, and places considerable emphasis on reflective learning and ensuring that the study is suited to the abilities of the individuals involved. In the long term, she hopes that the centre will be able to focus on both design and management as separate concepts.
