Tomorrow University Launches Six Impact MBAs for Human-Centric Leadership in the Age of AI
Berlin - Tomorrow University of Applied Sciences has announced six new Impact MBA programs starting March 2026. As technology, climate pressure, and social expectations intensify, efficiency-only playbooks are hitting their limits. These programs build the strategic, human, and systems capabilities executives need to deliver sustainable results across organizations and ecosystems.
Why this matters for executives
AI, geopolitical shifts, and planetary limits demand leaders who pair clarity with ethical judgment. Tomorrow University's stance is simple: durable performance starts with conscious leadership, then scales through teams, ventures, and networks. The portfolio unites strategy, innovation, ethics, and long-term responsibility into practical, decision-ready learning.

The six programs
- Impact MBA in Conscious Leadership and Organizational Development - Builds self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and a leadership mindset to foster inclusive, future-ready organizations.
- Impact MBA in Strategic Innovation and Business Transformation - Prepares leaders to design and execute complex transformation initiatives that deliver sustainable growth.
- Impact MBA in Responsible Entrepreneurship and Venture Creation - For founders and innovators building purpose-driven ventures that balance impact, profitability, and resilience.
- Impact MBA in AI and Technological Transformation - Focused on responsible AI leadership, ethical innovation, and sustainable technology strategy.
- Impact MBA in Sustainability and ESG Management - Equips professionals to translate ESG ambition into measurable outcomes using systems thinking and disciplined execution.
- Global Impact Executive MBA - For experienced executives seeking a global perspective and international peer network, with emphasis on cross-cultural and cross-sector leadership.
How the learning works
All programs use a challenge-based model. Learners work on real initiatives-often within their own companies-where decisions carry real consequences and measurable outcomes. Core themes include conscious leadership, strategy and innovation, entrepreneurship, responsible technology and AI, sustainability, ESG, and systems thinking. Graduates leave ready to lead work that affects organizations, society, and the planet.
Voices from leadership
"The challenges leaders face today cannot be solved with old playbooks. With these new MBA programs, leaders are empowered to act consciously, think systemically, and create impact that lasts," said Dr. Thomas Funke, Co-Founder and CEO of Tomorrow University.
Rolf Schroemgens, Founder of Trivago, added that future leaders will be judged by how responsibly they lead people, technology, and the planet-and that these programs build that capability.
