Leadership
After a few years of experience, many Simon MBAs are tapped for leadership positions, either leading a group or a line of business—particularly if they’ve become knowledgeable about their industry or function and have developed their problem solving, communication, and team-building abilities. These roles require additional capabilities, such as drive/stamina, the ability to influence and inspire others, adaptability, negotiation skills, strategic vision, and delegation skills.
You’ll have many opportunities to develop leadership competencies while at Simon. These include student clubs, the Graduate Business Council, Student Career Leadership Board, Student Ambassadors, Student Career Advisors, Communication Tutor, Coach and Workshop Leader programs, and ad hoc Simon student advisory boards and task forces.
