Sažetak
Managers run companies and projects with the purpose of achieving maximum business results through the direct control of labour performance and considerable financial resources. For someone to become a good manager or project manager it is not enough to be “talented” for the job or to have a wish to do it. These are no more than good motivation for a person to embark on the challenging journey of acquiring the variety of knowledge and skills without which he or she cannot expect to do the demanding and responsible managerial work successfully. Specialisation in business management, known as MBA, is today probably the most highly respected qualification in the business world. It is a form of additional high education in management, because it provides knowledge and skills that enable students to master business processes more easily, and to adapt to globalisation processes more quickly and painlessly. In 2002, the International MBA in Construction programme was launched at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, specially designed and adapted to the construction industry’s specific needs, as “general” MBA programmes are not always suitable for engineers holding managerial jobs in companies and/or in construction projects. Problems that have emerged from the introduction of the programme are presented as well as the suggestions for the new teaching methods and the new approach to knowledge transfer in construction management.
