Leadership Inbox Simulator



Susan Ashford

Management &
Organizations

How does leadership emerge through daily activities, such as managing an email inbox? Students in Susan Ashford's leadership class take on the role of a busy executive about to leave for a trip who has to prioritize and respond to an inbox full of requests, complaints, and opportunities and lead while doing it! Student responses to this task are then compared with those of an executive panel, and to video commentary provided by former Business School Dean and University President, Joe White. The class of 2006 completed this simulation as part of their MBA orientation.
