How do effective Colorado managers become successful leaders? Through the power-ful combination of management theory and practice that professionals learn in Olin’s Executive MBA (EMBA) program. Olin Business School, part of internationally recognized Washington University in St. Louis, brought its EMBA program to the Mile High City in September 2013.

The program is taught by some of the best minds in business. Olin professors bring their research models and methods into the classroom, providing real-time strategies students can apply to their organizations’ business challenges. As a result, the program creates immediate value, especially in a competitive market like Denver’s.

First-year courses build cross-functional knowledge. Second-year courses focus on important business themes: innovation and creativity, growth and sustainability, and global and emerging markets. Students also participate in a residency in Shanghai, where they meet with senior-level representatives from multinational corporations and tour high-performing companies.

“Olin prepared me for the next step in my career by making me a more effective leader,” says Casey Dugan, director of pharmacy services for Children’s Hospital Colorado and a 2012 graduate. “Now, I have a stronger skill set and a better under-standing of organizational behavior and change management.”
