EMBA Programs directly benefit organizations because they offer the knowledge and tools that managers need to excel on the job. The EMBA experience supports students as they:

• Bring best practices and new ideas to the organization
• Work more effectively throughout the organization
• Consider the impact of decisions on the organization as a whole
• Generate new sources of revenue
• Apply their new knowledge to improve the effectiveness of current projects
• Take advantage of international opportunities

As a tool to further develop organizational talent, the EMBA degree grooms talent to assume greater responsibility in less time, assists in the retention of high-potential leaders, and helps increase motivation and confidence. EMBA students often can tackle more complex assignments because of their EMBA education, which benefits the organization, and EMBA students apply their knowledge to the bottom-line benefit of the organization, both during and after the program. Many EMBA Programs also make it easy for students to increase their contributions at work during the program by requiring projects to solve real-life business issues.

In addition, because students in the EMBA also are working full time, they are able to bring their concerns into the classroom – and in front of a group of experienced peers and faculty for consideration – and return to work with new approaches. They often develop ties with peers and faculty and can turn to them for insights throughout their career.
