Executive Master in Imagineering:
In a creative economy there is a growing need for high level professionals who can create and innovate value from the experience perspective. This Master in Imagineering is designed as a roadmap for that new ‘outside-in enterprise logic’. Nowadays, people are driven much more by values of self-expression rather than those of rudimentary survival. They have a deep need to make sense of their lives in ways that are unique and personal. One of the most distinct ways in which this is manifested, is the new individual’s consumption pattern, by means of their choices they create their own identity. In our society, consumption is an absolute necessity, not a luxury. It is what people must engage in to survive – much the same as hunting was in earlier societies. This ‘psychological individuation and self-determination through consumption’ is a totally new historical phenomenon.
