Another fantastic Executive Crunch, courtesy of the GSU Executive MBA Alumni Association!

They also discussed the challenges they faced in leading these transformations, providing attendees with real-world examples and strategies to navigate their own leadership journeys.

👟 🏃‍♀️ Walking for connection and a cause!

Last week, the Robinson EMBA team, current students, and alumni met up for the Alpharetta Chamber of Commerce "Community Walk on the Loop". Proud supporters of the chamber's Women Excelling initiative, we joined nearly 100 walkers to traverse the Alpharetta Loop, contribute clothing donations in aid of The Drake House, and forge meaningful connections within Alpharetta's dynamic professional network. It was an inspiring display of community spirit and collaboration!

There's a compelling reason to get an Executive MBA with a clear pathway to the C-suite on offer and higher salary, but when the average cost for a top 10 program is nearly $200k, that seems daunting. Luckily, Robinson's EMBA is top 10 in Poets&Quants' latest list of ranked b-schools under $115k.

We scoured the top EMBA programs in the United States to find the gems that won't cost you an arm and a leg.

Just two more days until the Robinson EMBA Class of 2024 walks across the stage! Today's compilation comes from the "business" portion of international residency, showcasing hands-on learning, businesses that elevate local communities, and finding fulfillment and joy in the work we do.

Day two of the Class of 2024 celebration!

We amassed so many photos from the Class of 2024 International Residency in South Africa, that we had to organize the photos by topic. It's impossible to do the trip justice with a handful of photos, but here's a (very) small sampling from the "Social" folder!
