Meet the Faculty
Entrepreneurship represents a fantastic learning opportunity - there is no substitute for experiencing the uncertainty and anxiety of creating something new, making decisions with imperfect data yet, always moving forward and always learning. The concept of not having to choose between a world class education and starting a business is really intriguing.

Our Experts in the News
Sebastian Fixson and Rob Roberts are innovators at their core, and their thought leadership on innovation and Bubble NoCode make them the perfect duo to teach Babson's NoCode Startup Studio course.
体验学习如何帮助企业家领导者？
Experiential learning gives students the chance to use both creation and prediction logic. Employing both approaches gives entrepreneurial leaders a greater ability to successfully lead the innovation activities their organizations need to survive. These two approaches generate data, predictive analysis of the data, and further action.
Navigating Innovation in the Era of Digital Design and Collaborative Culture
Since the turn of the century, increased digitization and collaboration have provided new ways for firms to innovate. According to Fixson, "If you want to have ideas that are far out, they don't come from day-to-day business." He developed a data-driven framework to help organizations become better innovation navigators, generating and bringing the next big idea to life.
We Need Innovation in Leadership. Here’s How to Teach It.
Babson Professor and Associate Dean of Graduate Programs and Innovation Sebastian Fixson has decades of experience teaching innovation, and the research to back it up. "In a highly uncertain environment, entrepreneurial leaders combine the courage to act with the humility to listen to others to ultimately create solutions that are beneficial for all stakeholders," he says.
