OneMBA in Latin America — one of the greatest trips ever!
Let me say this to start. Mexico is not for sissies and Brazil is not for beginners. I just spent ten days in Mexico City, Sao Paolo and Rio de Janeiro as part of my Executive MBA program. On reflection this was one of the greatest trips I’ve ever been on. In between the festivities (I won’t lie -- there were a few) and some interesting lectures and company visits, it was a chance to engage with our fellow classmates from Mexico and Brazil and have an opportunity for them to share their home with us.
Isn’t supposed to be downhill from here?
When I first started this 21-month program, I used to round up and tell people it would take two years to complete. However, having finished one year and now having less than a year to go, I’m quick to point out to folks that we are on the way downhill. Well we would be, if it felt like it.
Beyond the Lecture
During my first year in the program, I’ve witnessed Kenan-Flagler’s commitment to innovative curriculum delivery that extends beyond lecture-based formats to include novel methods for teaching business concepts.

Month 3: My Beyond Begins
As the Evening Class of 2012 nears the end of its second set of classes, I think it’s a good time to reflect on my MBA for Executives experience thus far. Any concerns about whether what I’m learning in class would translate into value-added career enhancements have vanished.
