COMMENTS

At the Kellogg School we believe that executive education is the most effective way to make a direct impact on the practice of management. A special initiative at Kellogg is designed to ensure that each executive education participant at Kellogg gets the greatest possible value from the program for themselves and their organization. The initiative includes specific recommendations about what to do before, during, and after the program to prepare an action plan for putting what is learned to work as quickly as possible.
