Melbourne Business School & FEAL Masters Program

About the course
This module will be held at Melbourne Business School 22nd to 26th May 2026.

The module deepens participants' understanding of strategy and finance. The program addresses general strategy, but also emphasises the strategic challenges faced by Australian superannuation funds, with particular emphasis on the opportunities and threats posed by disruption of the industry fund sector. Finance is discussed at length in terms of how it supports and constrains the creation and implementation of strategy.

Applications close Friday 20th February, the winner will be announced at the FEAL Superannuation Leaders Forum Dinner on Thursday 12th March in Sydney.

FEAL welcomes applications from executives and senior leaders who are members of FEAL.
