MBA INUSUAL · Master for Better AdministratorsThree cycles · Three certifications

Businesses are managed.People are led.

And leading is not learned the way finance is: models and best practices are the most that fit in a classroom. Transformation demands consistency, time and real life. This MBA is that next step: three cycles trained inside your life, without mortgaging your calendar.

01The next step

Heir to the best schools.
And one step beyond.

This program was designed by incorporating the most recent methodologies of the best business schools in the world —Harvard, MIT, Stanford, INSEAD, IMD, IESE— and was refined over two years of piloting with more than a hundred participants. That is where it comes from. And it goes where they do not reach.

We say it from the start: «what you will never learn in a business school».

Not because they do their job badly: businesses are taught, and they teach them well. But people call for another format. That is why the MBA INUSUAL does not add another layer of knowledge: it re-educates the way you lead, from the inside out. It is not Master of Business Administration. It is Master for Better Administrators.

02The program

Three cycles, three certifications.

The same five habits —ASPIRA, TRANSPIRA, CONSPIRA, INSPIRA, RESPIRA— applied to an ever-wider scope. The person first; the team next; the organization last. Never the other way around.

  1. Cycle 1

    Unusual Leader

    Certification in Unusual Leadership

    Redefine who you are as a leader: self-knowledge, purpose, authenticity.

    You come out capable of:

    • You understand and apply your own leadership style, from your strengths and values.
    • You practice self-leadership: you lead from the inside out, even amid uncertainty.
    • You inspire and mobilize others in an authentic and effective way.
  2. Cycle 2

    Unusual Team

    Certification in Unusual Teams

    Build and lead teams in changing environments: trust, collaboration, culture.

    You come out capable of:

    • You form and lead high-performance teams, with a real project at stake.
    • You cultivate an environment where new ideas are valued and every person counts.
    • You communicate effectively and turn conflict into something constructive.
  3. Cycle 3

    Unusual Organization

    Certification in Unusual Organizations

    Lead cultural transformation: change, organizational design, innovation.

    You come out capable of:

    • You lead the transformation of your organization without losing people along the way.
    • You turn culture into behaviors: mission, values and objectives connected.
    • You create an environment of belonging and shared purpose that sustains change.

You can start with Cycle 1 and get certified; the MBA INUSUAL degree comes when you complete all three.

03The method

It is trained as it is lived: in your reality.

The continuous cycle of experiential learning: learn, unlearn, relearn. Built on the model from the book «El Líder Inusual» —which you have in full in digital form during the program— and with your own work as the practice ground.

Mentoring and coaching, habit by habit

Each habit combines live sessions with coaching every week, so you can apply it to your reality. And as each habit closes, individual asynchronous mentoring, at your convenience.

Real challenges, no exams

Progress is measured with challenges you choose from your own professional environment, self-assessments and a learning journal. Precise, continuous feedback, not a grade.

Onlife*, without mortgaging your calendar

Live sessions with their full archive, a daily message by email and a pace that adapts to you: each cycle calls for three to six months, with flexibility of up to a year. Three years for the complete program, if you want it whole.

Practicing facilitators

No traditional professors: practicing professionals coming from psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, technology and design, with real first-hand cases.

The certification, seriously

  • Assessment of your INUSUAL profile before and after the program: progress, measured
  • PDF guide with your competency profile based on the five habits
  • Assessment of your creative profile according to the Basadur methodology
  • Official certification in PDF and blockchain, embeddable in your LinkedIn profile
  • Mention of excellence for those who complete the program with it
The three cycle certifications add up to the MBA INUSUAL degree

«To study you have to sit down; to learn you have to stand up. We need more learning ecosystems: INUSUAL is one of them.»

04Is it for you?

It is not for everyone.
Its name already says so.

You do not come here to accumulate technical knowledge, but to transform yourself from the inside out. This is what we ask —and it has nothing to do with degrees—:

  • You want to grow beyond your comfort zone: new ways of thinking and of leading.
  • You are willing to take a journey inward: strengths, weaknesses, values and beliefs.
  • You want to be the person everyone would want to work alongside.
  • You value authenticity: leading from who you are, not from a mask.
  • You understand that leading is not only about strategy: it is about people.

Do you recognize yourself? Keep reading. Not yet? The best place to start training is the Club

06Admission

You get in through a conversation, not through a shopping cart.

There is an admission process, and it is deliberate: we want to know that the program can take you where you want to go before you come in.

  1. Apply for admission

    You complete the application form and await the result. We notify you by email.

    Start your application
  2. Admission interview

    If your profile is admitted, a conversation to get to know you: your expectations and whether the program can take you where you want to go.

  3. Confirm your enrollment

    You formalize your enrollment, receive access to the Club INUSUAL and to the preparatory material. And you start booking slots in your calendar.

  4. Prepare your transformation

    Self-assessments and preliminary tools to start with a foundation, and your first coaching session.

Before you take the step

Do I need previous leadership experience?
Not necessarily. It is designed both for experienced leaders looking for new perspectives and for those who aspire to lead and want to truly prepare.
How long does it last?
Each cycle calls for between three and six months, with flexibility of up to a year per cycle. The complete program, with its three certifications, up to three years. You set the pace.
Can I take a single cycle?
Yes: you can start with Cycle 1 and get certified in Unusual Leadership. The MBA INUSUAL degree comes when you complete all three certifications.
Is it all online?
The main modality is 100% Onlife*: live sessions, with their archive, and interactive activities. There are hybrid and intensive in-person modalities, with workshops in Barcelona, subject to availability: when the list fills up, they open.
What investment does it involve?
Well below what a traditional program costs, without giving up quality. The detail is in the information guide and we tell you about it in the admission interview.

Start with the masterclass.

Half an hour that tells you the program from the inside, before applying for anything. And if you would rather talk to a person first, that too.

The next step

First you learned to manage.
Now relearn to lead.
