Leadership Experience

Expert-led programming for Executive MBA students

Become the leader you need to be.

Leadership is the most sought-after job skill for employers and recruiters. That’s why leadership skills are woven into your MBA experience at UNC Kenan-Flagler.​

Leadership coursework

You’ll build a strong base of leadership knowledge through coursework and team-based projects in courses, including the required Leading and Managing and Ethical Leadership, as well as many electives that build your negotiation, people management, and decision-making skills. ​

Leading with Impact series

In addition to coursework, Executive MBA students have access to cutting-edge leadership programming that provides practical insights you’ll leverage immediately in your work. The hands-on programming includes interactive workshops prior to Impact Weekends, in-person leadership sessions scheduled around some class meetings, and virtual sessions several times a year. ​

Personalized career coaching

One-on-one and small-group sessions with experienced career coaches will help you reflect on the leadership skills you’ve gained and how to tactically leverage them to meet your individual career objectives. ​
