The Daniels MBA: Executive Program
Learning that takes you out of your comfort zone -- and the country.
Learning at Daniels is not confined to classrooms or even continents. Our approach
to learning challenges you to roll up your sleeves and get involved with your classmates,
your extended community and the world. In the process, you will journey through the
entire continuum of leadership development starting with understanding your individual
leadership style to providing strategic vision on a global scale.
Business relevance and experiential learning are at the core of the Daniels Executive MBA experience as exemplified by these three opportunities:
- Team Sail Challenge: Spend three days in small student teams working together to captain a 28-foot sailboat
on San Diego Bay. Paired with daily on-land classroom sessions, you'll gain insight
into your leadership style and team effectiveness as you discover analogies between
sailing and achieving organizational effectiveness.
- EMBA International Travel Seminar: Designed to compare a developing economy to a mature one, each student cohort chooses
a destination by consensus. Prior to departure, student groups design a business feasibility
study to explore and test in-country. Upon arrival, you'll visit corporations, attend
meetings with senior executives, talk with ex-patriots and gain an insider's view
of conducting international business.
- Social Capital Project: Grounded in Daniels' belief that good business is sound business, EMBA students work here in Denver, Colorado in small groups to create and launch a project of social significance. The project synthesizes key EMBA concepts: leadership, social responsibility, innovation and execution. The target is to provide at least $40,000 in real financial benefits to an organization or issue.
