Haas Offers EMBA in India
The Hass School of Business will launch a new executive education program for senior executives working in India. The program is offered in partnership with India-based Northwest Executive Education (NEE). The Executive Program in Management will apply core Haas and Silicon Valley principles of innovation and leadership to the world’s future home of the largest and youngest workforce ever known.
In its first year, the program aims to enroll approximately 50 director- and vice president-level executives, primarily from India, but also from neighboring countries in South and Southeast Asia, who are looking to improve their performance, advance within their organizations, and launch new initiatives.
The one-year program includes four weeklong modules taught by Haas professors that will focus on leadership, innovation, strategy and product management and communications. Participants will also complete multiple workshops and a capstone project. One module will be held in India, one online, and two in Berkeley. The two modules in Berkeley will be accompanied by visits to innovative local corporations, start-ups, venture capital firms, and incubators.
India is the world’s second-most populous country, 10th-biggest economy and is expected to surpass China as the world’s most populous nation in 2030, when its median age will be only 31. In a few years, India’s huge middle class will equal the entire population of the United States. India has already proven its ability to create world-class companies and Berkeley’s front-row seat to Silicon Valley represents a valuable opportunity for business leaders looking to the future.
The executive MBA program at Haas focuses on applying knowledge and skills to challenges that managers face in today’s workplace. For more information on the Haas EMBA as well as other EMBA programs in San Francisco, visit Metro MBA’s complete list of EMBA programs here.
