Wisconsin Evening and Executive MBA Programs Speaker Series
LEARN and CONNECT
The Wisconsin Evening and Executive MBA Programs Speaker Series is a signature element of our MBA Programs for working professionals. Each quarter a leader who is out in front—someone who’s specialty reflects the best elements of industry and academia—is our featured speaker. The format features an intimate fireside interview, followed by Q&A from the audience. Opportunities to network, both before the featured talk as well as after at a reception, are available. All members of the extended Wisconsin Evening and Executive MBA Programs community, including current Executive MBA and Evening MBA students, faculty, staff, prospects and alumni are invited to participate. Events are archived as webcasts for later review, and as a way to reach out to those Wisconsin Evening and Executive MBA community members who are unable to attend.
