Class champions
Each EMBA cohort will be assigned a champion, a well-respected business leader who will remain in contact with the group throughout the two-year program.
Champions engage with their cohort by leading discussions, providing mentorship and fostering network opportunities, all while serving as a role model and source of support for students.
