BBA Fast Track and MBA Executive Skills Workshops

Dear Ross Students,

What does it take to succeed? Research at the Stephen M. Ross School of Business has identified a set of key skills that characterize the most effective leaders worldwide. Although analytical skills and technical competencies are essential, it is increasingly evident that skills that enhance your personal productivity, social competence, and leadership perspective are essential to any successful career.

Because we believe that all students will benefit by learning critical key skills, eight workshops are offered to the BBA class this year through the BBA Fast Track Workshops.

The Ross School of Business Fast Track and Executive Skills Programs offers a series of workshops that provide you with a set of critical skills that you can leverage throughout your career, regardless of the path to success you choose. The 2008 fall workshops will cover a variety of topics including Business Etiquette, Managing Team Dynamics, and Speed Reading.

Each workshop, taught by experienced education faculty, lasts two to three hours and provides a variety of skill-building strategies in a lively, interactive format. For a complete listing of offerings, schedule, and registration information, please see the list of Workshops.

With best wishes for your success,

Paula J. Caproni, Ph.D.
Director, Executive Skills Program

Scott A. Moore
Director, BBA Program

Sara A. K. Tan
Program Manager, Executive Skills Program
