Four Elements of the Weatherhead EMBA
Managers create the worlds in which we work and live. To best prepare executives for this task, the Weatherhead EMBA is organized around four elements:
- The development of leadership skills at the levels of self, team, organization and society,
- The sociopolitical structures in which leadership is most needed, including government, the world economy and the rapidly changing realm of technology,
- The language of business, with a special focus on how it is spoken in the boardroom, and
- The achievement of change in organizations by leading design-oriented teams.
These four elements create a leadership package that will prime you to assume a more responsible and influential position in an existing organization or to build a dynamic new organization. Together, these skills help leaders act with confidence and decisiveness in the face of uncertainty.
