• Integrative: Having a deep understanding of the fundamental areas of business combined with an awareness of how these areas continuously interact with one another, and the abilities to use this knowledge.

• Innovative: Being flexible and creative to view the world, issues and opportunities from different perspectives and secure enough to take risks and try new things.

• Socially Responsible and Sustainable: Having the awareness and skills to consider the economic, environmental and social consequences of decisions in business and personal contexts.
