The national faith@work Dare to Overcome conference featured a panel of BYU MBA students who led the first-ever case competition on faith and belief in the workplace.
In February 2023, the first annual Faith and Belief at Work MBA case competition was held at Brigham Young University. A case competition is a unique experiential learning event where business students compete to solve a particular business problem in a constrained time frame. In this case competition MBA students looked at how companies can systematize faith and belief inclusion efforts in a corporate setting. Students came from 11 top MBA programs across the nation to compete for sponsored prizes from Equinix and American Airlines. PayPal and the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation also sponsored the event, hosted by the Sorensen Center for Moral and Ethical Leadership and the BYU MBA program.
Members of the student team that led the case competition will discuss the importance of including faith and belief curriculum in MBA student learning, the details of the case competition experience, the vision for future years, and how companies can get involved in this and other business school initiatives.
