The Faculty of Business and Management (FBM) offers some of the most popular programmes at OUM. Many of its learners and graduates have gone on to achieve amazing things and made us all so proud, so it is with great pleasure that we dedicate this issue of Contact to the best from FBM.
Let’s read about two outstanding FBM graduates, and find out more about the future of the Faculty from its Dean, Dr Goi Mei Teh. We cap off this issue by taking a quick look at the increasingly concerning issue of inflation, and talk about ways to stop people-pleasing.
Happy reading!
