Engage fearlessly. Learn by doing. An environment that encourages bold, unconventional thinking and the opportunity to try new things. Kellogg coursework and team projects challenge you to make critical connections between academic theory and real-world practice, and then to put your best thinking to the test. In close collaboration with faculty

10


members and fellow students — and often with alumni and corporate partners — you will explore innovative management concepts and how to apply them to critical business issues. Such teamwork exposes you to new ways of thinking about problems and cross-functional approaches to solving them. It creates a dynamic curriculum and a learning experience directly relevant to your professional life. Team efforts strengthen the communication and interpersonal skills essential to working with and influencing others.

these are distinctive characteristics of the Kellogg MBA and reasons why organizations consistently rank our graduates highly on their ability to lead and inspire. 11


Discover options that align with your values and goals. “Kellogg’s collaborative environment encourages us to build something bigger than ourselves.” Over the course of my career at IBM, I’ve advised Fortune 500 executives, government leaders and military generals. And I’ve observed firsthand that many of the world’s greatest leaders rely on collaboration to generate and exchange ideas, and to achieve something aspirational. As someone who advises corporate stewards and government leaders, it’s important for me to understand the complexities of an ever-changing, interconnected world. So when I was considering business schools, I knew I needed a place where I could interact with professionals committed to better understanding the transforming world. Kellogg is exactly that place. It fosters a culture built on collaboration. And it attracts engaged faculty and students who are driven by collective innovation. Kellogg has helped me become a better version of myself. I came to the program experienced in writing speeches for notable politicians, government leaders and corporate titans, but have been challenged by faculty to communicate messages with less words and more conviction. And even though I have helped Fortune 500 clients and government agencies achieve sustainable growth, the Kellogg community has pushed me to strive for higher standards of managerial excellence. Here, business leaders learn how to influence culture, build businesses with entrepreneurial zeal and pioneer unchartered territories. Kellogg’s collaborative environment encourages us to build something bigger than ourselves.

do more with a kellogg mba.

“If I were to pursue something entrepreneurial, I’d pursue it with someone from Kellogg.” I’ve been a neurosurgeon in private practice for more than 10 years. I’m not the only physician in Kellogg’s executive program — there are eight of us in my class. We come from different medical disciplines, but we all want to see health care improve. I first noticed opportunities for business streamlining when I was a resident, and again when I joined a private practice group. In medicine, if you really want to encourage change, you have to understand the fundamentals beyond patient care and hospital protocol. My practice runs well, but I still have a lot to learn. I knew I could do more with a Kellogg MBA. I couldn’t be more pleased with this program. My field is very self-specialized, so the emphasis on collaboration is very refreshing. The program requires a lot of work, but I’ve already learned so much from my classmates. I can always run ideas past them, and they come up with ideas and concepts I wouldn’t have considered. I do the same for them. I can apply class material almost instantly to my practice. I’m currently talking with classmates about business ideas that combine technology and medicine. If I were to pursue something entrepreneurial, I’d pursue it with someone from Kellogg. We have the work ethic, skills and talents to make it happen.

Think more strategically. Negotiate more effectively.

“The team environment works beautifully. It promotes open dialogue and helps team members develop strong relationships.” I wanted to move my career ahead. I saw the many positive attributes of an MBA degree and how it would open doors in my organization. When a good friend told me about the Kellogg Executive MBA Program in Miami, it motivated me even more. At Kellogg, I knew I’d be sharing a learning experience with a great group of professionals. On my first day of class, I learned that “diversity” takes on a whole new meaning at the school. No one has the same profession or home country. That alone is an incredible experience, as it helps you develop sensitivities that are necessary for working in a global environment. The team environment works beautifully. It promotes open dialogue and helps team members develop strong relationships. My peers have told me that I’ve definitely become more assertive. It’s a great compliment coming from a group with such high standards. At work, I’ve become a more strategic thinker. In meetings, I know how to deliver a stronger message. I’ve learned how to negotiate better with clients. I’m more effective when communicating with clients, meeting face-to-face with people and engaging in strategic negotiations — which are key to my success.

Analytical skills. Managerial thinking.

“I’ve discovered tremendous value in learning how to see things from different angles.” Simply put, Haiti has an unsteady environment and faces enormous risks and challenges. Years of business experience have provided me with good instincts, but we all know good instincts alone don’t guarantee success. It became imperative for me to reinforce my practical learning with a more formal knowledge of analytical skills and a true understanding of the latest thinking and ideas. I chose Kellogg because of the flexibility of the schedule, the convenient Miami campus and the appeal of the collaborative approach. The combination of outstanding professors and the ability to learn from fellow students is one of the most attractive facets of this program. Working together enables us to spend time openly discussing issues and sharing important ideas. I now realize there are no absolute right answers to business problems. Each person can have a different take on a problem and can offer a perfectly acceptable solution. I’m already a more patient and better listener because of the Kellogg experience. For me, the focus has always been on the bottom line. It’s been very refreshing to see how classmates from other walks of life — for example, physicians or those engaged in nonprofit organizations — approach business issues. They are more “people-centric.” I’ve discovered tremendous value in learning how to see things from different angles. 18

Kellogg has forged partnerships with other leading business schools in Asia, the Middle East, Canada and Europe to offer students an authentic global perspective. With our U.S.-based campuses and these partnerships, Kellogg students have opportunities in six locations worldwide to learn and interact with faculty experts and fellow students experienced in local markets and business practices. Executive MBA students may complete up to four electives at Kellogg’s international partner schools.

Kellogg School of Management, Evanston, Ill. and Miami northwestern university

In 2006, Kellogg opened its second US-based campus, with facilities modeled on the Allen Center, in Miami, the financial center of the southeastern United States and the gateway to Latin America and other international markets.

Locally grounded. Globally attuned. Businesses thrive by organizing their resources in a way that is locally grounded but globally attuned. Kellogg prepares you to manage in a global economy by helping you develop a broader, more fully informed view of the world along multiple dimensions. This expanded view is woven throughout the academic curriculum. It is embodied in the diversity of our faculty and student body. It comes to life through our relevant global initiatives, our integrated portfolio of courses and global electives, and our worldwide academic partnerships. Regardless of your perspective now, your view will become clearer and more practically relevant at Kellogg.

A local global community. International Live-In Week, a signature Kellogg event, is a worldwide student gathering that spotlights the global nature of our Executive MBA Program. All Executive MBA students, during August of their first year in the program, join together on the Evanston campus with students from all of Kellogg’s other international partner school programs for an intensive academic, networking and cross-cultural social experience. With their incredibly varied professional and cultural backgrounds, countries of origin and national perspectives, students often say they learn as much from each other as they do in the classroom. The atmosphere of this unique Kellogg experience extends into rewarding social interactions and valuable networking with peers from all over the world.

By immersing myself in the global network that defines Kellogg, I now have a greater appreciation for a broad diversity of perspectives and insights. Donald “Blue” Jenkins, Kellogg MBA ’09

vice president, northeast /mid - atlantic origination, bp energy company

Leaders for the world. Perhaps your company is considering global expansion. Maybe an international career path intrigues you. Or you have a strong interest in the economy of a particular world region. Whatever your motivation, Kellogg offers an intriguing array of global electives — taught domestically and internationally — that will expand your view of the world.

Global Initiatives in Management (GIM), for example, begins with classroom study focused on business issues in a particular country or region. You then travel there on a 10-day international journey that will deepen your understanding of cross-cultural issues and give you first-person insight into the local marketplace and its position in the global economy.

Global Elective Options in the second year of study include up to six classes taken at one of our global partner programs. Electives can range from “European Culture and Management” at WHU’s Otto Beisheim School of Management in Germany and “Deal Making in China and Asia” at HKUST in Hong Kong to “Venture Capital” at the Recanati School in Tel Aviv and “International Strategy” at York University’s Schulich School in Toronto.

Application The Executive MBA program admissions committee considers numerous factors, including work experience, academic history, recommendations, company sponsorship, personal interview and the content of the application itself. Most candidates have a minimum of eight years of managerial experience. A majority of the Kellogg Executive MBA students have 12 to 15 years of work experience. All candidates for admission to the Executive MBA Program must visit kellogg.northwestern. edu/emba to apply. A complete application for admission consists of the application form, two letters of recommendation, the honor code pledge, the application fee, official transcripts from all previous schools attended, a completed interview and a letter of sponsorship from the appropriate officer in the applicant’s organization. Applicants applying to the Kellogg Executive MBA Program may choose one of four options: September Evanston, January Evanston, September Miami or January Miami. Admissions criteria are identical for all four.

Sponsorship //

Sponsorship is an important component of each application and consists of two elements: 1) time away from work to attend classes and 2) financial support. A letter of sponsorship on company letterhead is required for every applicant and should spell out both kinds of support in detail. Financial sponsorship is not required, but every company must provide the necessary time away. An organization’s sponsorship commitment also should involve working with admitted students to establish a career progression plan and to develop a strategy for the student’s continued growth in the organization after graduation.

Transfer credit //

The Kellogg School does not accept transfer credits or prior learning credits from any outside institution.

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) // Applicants whose native language is not English must either take the TOEFL (IBT format) and obtain a score of 100 or better, or take the equivalent of English Composition 101 and 102 at an accredited U.S. college or university. Students who have completed graduate studies at a U.S. college or university may have the TOEFL requirement waived upon the approval of the Admissions Committee.

30


Rolling admissions // The Executive MBA Program has a rolling admissions policy. About 30 days after the Executive MBA Program has received the completed application and all supporting materials, an applicant will receive by mail a decision regarding acceptance to the program.

Timing // The following application guidelines are recommended. Because of the competitive nature of program admissions, early application is encouraged. For September start dates in Evanston and Miami: by July 1. International students must apply by June 1 to allow time for visa processing. For January start dates in Evanston and Miami: by November 1. International students must apply by October 1 to allow time for visa processing.

Letters of recommendation // The program requires two letters of recommendation from supervisors and/or peers who know the applicant well, preferably from someone within the applicant’s current organization. Extra recommendations may be submitted at the applicant’s discretion. Requests for letters of recommendation are integrated within the application.

Official transcripts // The Executive MBA Program requires applicants to provide official transcripts from all universities and colleges attended in the United States and abroad, whether the applicant graduated from the institution or took just one class. Each transcript should be submitted in a sealed envelope with the signature or seal of the university registrar. Kellogg does not accept copies of any kind. All transcripts for credits earned outside of the United States should be translated course by course into English by a university-approved agency and submitted directly from the agency. Approved agencies are identified at naces.org/members.htm.

Honor Code //

Applicants should read the honor code carefully and submit the online form as part of the application. Please indicate agreement or disagreement with the code.
