Alfred Ford School of Management - AFSM Reviews 3

Being very frank, this is not one of the most prestigious MBAs. If you are just looking for prestige, don't think this program is for you.
However, if you are a busy professional who is not willing to trade off a full year of career growth and spend $100K out of pocket on a business degree in hope of getting a promotion, then AFSM is a very good option.

With the online format, I was able to gain a massive base of professional skills and earn a UK Level 7 education while still working a full-time job; it's incredible.

But the most beneficial aspect of this program was the Conscious Leadership perspective. General MBAs are starting to get a little bit saturated; it's not that special anymore. But Conscious Leadership really makes you stand out. For me, this was a massive catalyst for starting in-depth conversations with high-level professionals. Not every company has a strong ethos and culture, but they all understand the value it brings to the table. When you are able to prove that this is still profitable, you gain trust. That is the real business currency.

Studying for my MBA at the Alfred Ford School of Management has been a truly transformative experience that went far beyond standard business theory. AFSM provided a holistic framework that integrated ethical leadership with rigorous strategic management. My satisfaction with the program is exceptionally high. The flexibility of the online format allowed me to balance my professional commitments without sacrificing the quality of education. The faculty are not just academics but mentors who bring real-world experience to every module.I developed a deeper self-awareness and learned how to lead with empathy and purpose, ensuring that my business decisions benefit both the company and society.
I gained the confidence to present ideas at scale. My ability to translate complex strategies into clear, actionable goals has improved significantly.
This MBA didn't just give me a degree; it gave me a new perspective. It helped me transition from being a functional manager to a conscious leader. If you are looking for a program that values character and ethics as much as profit and strategy, I cannot recommend AFSM enough.

I joined the Alfred Ford School of Management after many years of leadership experience in the NGO and social entrepreneurship sector. AFSM was not a conventional career step for me, but a natural continuation of my personal and professional development.

The program strengthened my leadership skills, managerial competence, and ethical awareness. It helped me think more strategically, communicate more consciously, and lead with greater confidence and responsibility, especially in people-focused and impact-driven environments.

What I value most is AFSM’s strong focus on conscious, values-based leadership, practical application through real cases and projects, and the flexibility of the online format, which suited my work in the NGO sector. Peer learning and exposure to diverse perspectives were also key strengths.

I would highly recommend AFSM to professionals seeking meaningful, ethical, and people-centred leadership development.
