FACt Approach

Simon’s approach to management education incorporates our renowned Frame, Analyze, and Communicate (FACt©) model. FACt includes a healthy balance between theory and practice and allows you to tackle real-world business problems by identifying the main issues, analyzing the information, and generating practical solutions. You will soon understand why this unique approach sets Simon apart from other business programs.
