Executive program

Executive Perspective The EMBA allows students to look at business problems and opportunities from a senior management perspective. Students will become knowledgeable about the important strategic concepts in key business disciplines, integrate this knowledge with previous background and experiences, and enhance management and leadership skills that are immediately applicable, allowing students to be even more productive and effective for their careers and their organizations. Collaborative Learning At the executive level, building partnerships, alliances, and other cooperative relationships is an essential element to success. Our Executive MBA program focuses on collaboration and its impact on sound strategic decision making. Successful Executive MBA students learn how to share responsibilities with each other and take advantage of the experience and knowledge each participant brings to the class and the program. Strategic Focus UNO’s Executive MBA program aims to provide the intellectual and applicable tools needed to manage a broad array of business functions in an integrated manner that advances an organization’s best interests. Reflecting the dynamic and challenging nature of today’s business environment, four unifying concepts have been incorporated into much of the Executive MBA course work: the impact of analysis, strategy, leadership and global commerce on business management and decision-making. Students complete a total of 33 core credit hours and 6 elective hours
