Michigan Ross Alumni Club of Washington, D.C.

Welcome to the Michigan Ross Alumni Club of Washington D.C. where, as a leading Ross Alumni Club and former Domestic Club of the Year, we are proud to help connect the “leaders and best” in our nation’s capital.  Our mission is to foster an inclusive environment of engagement where we as individuals and as an alumni collective can pursue our professional and personal goals.

As esteemed Ross Professor Dave Ulrich stated in his 2014 Commencement Address, a great coach “often helps leaders move from the amorphous world of boundless choice to the actionable world of commitment. If you are to remain the ‘leaders and best,’ your next decades are less about what choices you have and more about the commitments you make by responding to three questions: What do I want? Who do I help? How do I build?” The leadership of our D.C. Club views our role similarly – it’s what we enjoy most about volunteering our time.

Whether by engaging socially, networking for your next role, connecting with a critical business partner, or more generally continuing your learning and development, we hope that the Michigan Ross D.C. Alumni Club can be a part of your Ross alumni journey.

Please reach out to me, David Erbstein with any thoughts on getting involved and/or about how we might serve our D.C. alumni, our “leaders and best,” best!


Thanks and Forever Go Blue!
David Erbstein
