MBA-FPX5002 – MBA Leadership: How My Leadership Style Evolved Through FlexPath
When I enrolled in MBA-FPX5002 – MBA Leadership, I thought I understood my leadership style. I had managed teams before, delegated tasks, and motivated colleagues—but this course challenged me to go deeper. Through self-assessment tools like the Leadership Practices Inventory and reflective assignments, I began to recognize not just how I lead, but why I lead the way I do.
In the FlexPath format, I could pause and revisit leadership theories, especially transformational and servant leadership, in the context of my current role. I experimented with active listening strategies in my workplace, applying feedback loops to better connect with team members. Over time, I saw a shift—not just in how my team responded, but in my own confidence as a leader.
The self-paced structure gave me room to immediately apply classroom insights to real projects. I realized that my natural style blended visionary thinking with a strong emphasis on team development. This was different from the more directive approach I had taken in the past. By the end of MBA-FPX5002, I had not only reshaped my leadership philosophy but also documented a clear plan for evolving my leadership over the next five years.
27. MBA-FPX5006 – Business Strategy: Applying Strategic Models to Real-World Decisions
Completing MBA-FPX5006 – Business Strategy was like getting a toolkit for making smarter, more structured business decisions. The course introduced me to models such as Porter’s Five Forces, the Balanced Scorecard, and the Blue Ocean Strategy—each one reshaping the way I approached challenges in my organization.
Before, my strategic thinking was reactive—solving problems as they appeared. Now, I can proactively anticipate challenges by mapping out competitive forces and aligning them with internal capabilities. For example, I applied the Balanced Scorecard to a project proposal, connecting financial performance with customer satisfaction and internal process improvements.
The FlexPath model meant I could work through modules faster when I already understood the concepts, and slow down when learning advanced frameworks like the Ansoff Matrix. Because there were no rigid deadlines, I could take extra time to build a full strategy proposal for my company—a deliverable that not only earned high marks but was actually implemented.
