Business Schools

Bringing classroom learning to life 

 

Our social impact projects integrate innovative experiential learning into Business School programmes and are ideal for students on Business Master’s courses, or as part of Executive Education programmes. 

Students get to experience social impact first-hand and learn about the integral role the business world plays in affecting positive, sustainable, social change. 

Our projects provide a challenging but safe and fun environment for students to learn invaluable team, leadership and project management skills while improving their self-confidence.  

We have worked with some of the world’s top business schools for two decades. Our projects are created bespoke to each educational establishment and are tailored to your course curriculum following consultation with your faculty. 

Learning Objectives:

 

  • Experience working as a high-performing team.
  • Exploration of different leadership styles. 
  • Experience of VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) challenges. 
  • Bringing course learnings to life, for example, hands-on project management experience. 
  • Improved interpersonal skills including communication and relationship building. 
  • Improved self-confidence and problem-solving skills. 
  • First-hand experience of the role business plays in affecting positive social change. 
  • Learn about the importance of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. 

Options

 

Team Challenges  

Our most popular type of project, Team Challenges differ from typical ‘team building’ days out because of one powerful impetus – ‘purpose’. Our projects challenge participants to work outside of their comfort zones on an ambitious task with a strict deadline that is only achievable by everyone working together. 

Leadership Challenges 

Splash Projects provide a dynamic, challenging, and safe environment for leadership development, where existing managers and future leaders alike get to learn about themselves as well as their peers.  

Our Leadership Challenges follow the same structure as our Team Challenges but the focus is on supporting the development of authentic and effective leadership skills. 

Immersive experiences

Our Immersive Experiences or ‘Strategic Management Challenges’ extend the scope of a traditional Splash Project and can be incorporated into university’s field or study trip.

The fundamental element of an Immersive Experience is for business professionals or university/business school students to use their knowledge and expertise to help find a solution to an issue or problem facing an in-need community.

Testimonial

It has been a long time since I’ve been impressed like this – the experience blew my mind! It was perfect symphony. It was the best learning experience I have seen in such a short period of time. Just wow!

Muriel Barnier, Programme Director, CEDEP, France

The impact a Splash Project has at the beginning of an MBA programme, in and out of the classroom, is really quite extraordinary. In the classroom, it brings a very early reflection on behaviours in teams and individually. It also brings a different perspective on studying business. The impact out of the classroom of doing good cannot be over-emphasised. There is a feel-good factor that allows students to get in the right spirit early in the programme.

Stephanie Villemane, Associate Dean (Masters in Management and Masters in Finance), IE Business School, Madrid

The organisation and the staff were wonderful – Simon and the team really listened to us and worked so well with our students. In such a short time Splash enabled our students to do something amazingly professional and they were really able to bond with one another.

Marie Courtois, director of student experiences, ESSCA, France

Splash Projects are all sweaty, all different, and all real. On the one hand, students learn so much about collaboration, teamwork, cohesion, leading with impact and overcoming challenges. And then, on the other, it’s heart-warming for them to see they’re having such an impact on people in need.

Thomas Hellwig, Adjunct Professor of Leadership, INSEAD, France

Splash Projects inspire participants to use their humanity and morality to do what’s right in business. The Splash team is hugely engaged and very focused on supporting the students and maintaining safety. Splash projects have taught me that having a real purpose builds resilience, and enthusiasm is contagious.

Loïc Sadoulet, Professor of Economics, INSEAD, France

The MBA programme consists of a lot of clever minds that tend to think that solutions come from complex analysis. The Splash Project taught us that basic common sense is just as important. The Splash team forced us to work together in ways that revealed our personalities. This helped us to better work together in our groups back in the classroom.

Hesse McKechnie, MBA student, INSEAD, France
