Both well-informed and knowledgeable, learners must be committed to sound research, taking a multidisciplinary and metacognitive approach to problem-solving, and be able to recognise and put aside personal bias, basing decisions on evidence. This will prepare them to take calculated risks.

To think differently, you must be intellectually curious, analytical and open-minded, though constructively critical. You must have the mental agility to think across disciplines, contexts and domains to solve complex problems and find innovative ways to do things. You must be imaginative but rational. We will systematically help you cultivate higher-order thinking – the kind of thinking that recognises and makes sense of patterns others miss, and that facilitates unique linkages and solutions.

This ties back to the overarching P in the quadruple bottom line: purpose. Being purpose-driven, you put sustainability at the heart of your organisation. Emotionally and spiritually intelligent, you should be self-aware, understand the interconnectedness of all things, and act ethically and with integrity. As an ideal graduate, you will be a service-oriented agent of change.

You will appreciate the value of individual differences. Socially intelligent, collaborative and skilled communicators, you should be able to facilitate connections to build, empower and manage high-functioning teams with diverse skills and personalities, and support them in assuming responsibilities.

With a confident and inspiring aura, you are utterly professional, yet accessible. You are deliberate, determined, disciplined and focused. You will model your values, and hold yourself accountable. You will have the resilience and grit to keep going in the face of adversity.
