Program Format
Team-Based Learning
Our Team-Based Learning Model
The Cornell-Queen's Executive MBA program uses the power of teams to create a highly supportive and collaborative learning experience. Teams function just as they would in the workplace, drawing on the diverse skills and experiences of all team members. Teams are formed at the beginning of each program and remain together for the duration. Each team is comprised of five to nine members, with an emphasis on diversity of background. Teams work on projects and assignments together, providing a practical model for coursework and facilitating outstanding academic results.
Dedicated Team Facilitators
Team Facilitators work closely with each team, assisting in the process of team building and the creation of high-performance teams. They also provide coaching and lead teamwork-enhancing exercises. You will have the added advantage of learning new team and leadership skills that you can apply in the workplace. Not only do we believe that this is a better way to learn, employers also recognize that the team-based approach is superior to the approach of traditional MBA programs.
Corporate Learning Teams
The ability to create Corporate Learning Teams provides an exciting opportunity for program participants and their sponsoring employers. Corporate teams can be created whenever the number of managers from one organization reaches the size needed to form a Boardroom Learning Team. Like any other team, this group of managers from a single organization would be connected to the videoconferencing network for boardroom sessions. This concentration of managers would allow all of the team assignments and projects to be focused on that organization, resulting in greater value added by these participants and faster payback for the sponsoring organization.
