The Daniels Difference
Can a classroom be on the water? Can a teacher be a boat? The Executive MBA Team Sail Challenge occurs up front—just five weeks into our 18-month program. This unique gateway experience is a leadership laboratory, where students practice concepts learned in the classroom. Team dynamics, continuous change, resilience, reliance on others and shared success relate directly to business. The bonds that form on the water act as a catalyst for collaboration in the EMBA classroom.
Conducting business outside the United States involves a unique set of challenges: diverse cultures, ethical frameworks, business expectations and language barriers.
The Executive MBA global challenge is about developing a mindset in two countries of your cohort’s choosing. The Global Business course affords you a hands-on understanding of global markets, to conduct industry analysis, and to identify strategic opportunities.
Secondary research conducted on campus is paired with primary research in-country. You will experience a transformative change in global perspective that will impact your domestic thought as well.
