Personalized leadership development is integral to the Ross Executive MBA experience. It's a key differentiator of our program for a reason: In October 2009, Ross was ranked No. 1 in leadership development by Leadership Excellence magazine.
EMBA's Professional Development Program (PDP) fills the gaps between the analytical and strategic skills necessary for you to lead and drive change in your organization.
The Ross PDP is customized to address your unique attributes and skills. You will create your own development plan for leadership through guided self-assessment, individual coaching, 360-degree feedback, and more.
We integrate PDP activities into your traditional business coursework throughout the 20-month executive MBA curriculum. The goal is to maximize your general effectiveness as a leader and to ensure your specific success in such practical areas as building teams, working with boards of directors, interfacing with Wall Street, and managing the media.
