| Wharton MBA for Executives ProgramEvaluating EMBA Programs MBA Program for Executives Vice Dean Peggy Bishop Lane offers advice and criteria for evaluating executive MBA (EMBA) programs. The factors include academic quality, selectivity, and program format. What kinds of things should you be looking at when deciding whether to apply to a particular EMBA program? I'd advise you to look at several factors. First, what is the equivalence of the program to a full-time MBA? How does the curriculum compare? Second, how selective is the school? Third, what about the program's schedule and overall learning environment? Also, how big is the alumni network and what do the alumni do? How do you get a sense of the quality of an EMBA class? The selectivity of the school is one factor in determining the skills, abilities, and experience of the peer group you'll work with throughout your studies. The best way to get a sense of the school is to visit. What about the class schedule? Ask yourself whether the program fits your lifestyle and your schedule.

MIT Is Something Wrong With the Way We Work? Summing Up Fixing the Way We Work There is a lot wrong with the way we work, but very little of this is due to new networking capabilities or communications technology. But ultimately the primary culprit is us. As Dean Turner put it, "Clients increasingly have an expectation of reaching their attorneys at any hour of the day (or night) and getting responses in near-real time," he writes. The costs of this always on culture are high. Many felt that the real problem is us. Technology may be part of the solution. If the problem is us, the solution may lie with us. How can we fix what's wrong with the way we work? Original Article This month's topic was triggered in part by the information (not fact-checked) that in several European countries where vacations are mandated, most employees take their prescribed amounts of time off. Then several books having to do with how to get control of our work lives and our personal networking technologies hit my desk within a matter of days. To Read More:

The breadth of electives, I think, is the largest of any top school. Follow your own path I was born and raised in Belgium. After school, I worked for two years, then took a year off and traveled the world and did some volunteer work. More than just finance Wharton does have a reputation as a finance school but it’s so much more. A Wharton AHA moment After my Welcome Weekend, I sent an email to Dean Kembrel Jones, our Dean of student life, to thank him for the amazing time and also give some ideas for next year, things that I thought could be run differently or better. A life changing experience Just being here, having this eye-opening experience as a student has allowed me to grow in my personal and professional life.
