Benefits of Sponsorship
As an employer there are many benefits of sponsoring an employee as they pursue the W. Cliff Oxford Executive MBA program at Goizueta Business School.
- An Independent Study can be tailored by the sponsored student to evaluate an issue critical to his or her organization. With the consultation of a faculty advisor, that student can develop a set of actionable recommendations. This is an example of the ability to integrate professional and academic work, making the latter more real-world.
- Our students estimate that the EMBA program increases their managerial judgment by 7 to 10 years. A formal grounding in business principles across various disciplines leads to more informed decisions on issues of strategy through implementation, based on honed critical thinking and analysis.
- Executive MBA students do not interrupt their careers and do not need to leave their organizations. The W. Cliff Oxford EMBA is delivered in two formats, allowing students to remain on the job full-time.
- The program creates a positive ROI for both the employee and the organization. Our candidates consistently agree that their organizations do not have to wait until graduation to benefit from this ROI – there is immediate application of learning back to the organization from day one.
- Investing in higher education and growth sends a positive message to high-potential executives within your organization, leading to loyalty and retention of your best internal talent.
