Leadership research shows the top skill that makes a difference between average and star performers: is social-emotional intelligence (SEI). Businesses say SEI is exactly the skill they need but don’t see it in most MBA graduates.
We know business education can do better , so we designed the MBA at Wright Graduate University’s Lyons School of Transformational Business for a different kind of leader.
What if you could…
- Study the inner game of leadership, developing yourself in order to bring out the best in others?
- Lead through high-quality rapport and inspiration, tapping into your team’s genuine desire and capacity to contribute creative solutions?
- Earn credit while you experiment, practice, and apply what you learn day-to-day and moment-by-moment in your business?
Experience an education that empowers you with the management skills today’s market demands, AND the human skills that empower you as an authentic leader.
Curriculum Applied to You
From day one you’ll direct your learning toward your own most pressing challenges . How? Wright Graduate University faculty have spent 30 years perfecting an applied educational format.
In the personally-applied curriculum, we call performative education, you’ll take on bite-size daily leadership and SEI challenges that you can implement anywhere, in any career and life path, from day one. You’ll also practice the critical management skills of coaching and leading groups, applying the skills you learn immediately.
Education Your Way: Online, On Campus, or Both
At times in your education, you may want an in-person community, and at other times you want to learn in your own space. That’s why we invested in technology to create a seamless hybrid learning experience for our students in all programs. You get to choose whether you want to learn fully online or meet your cohort and faculty in person.
Experience the freedom to have your curriculum adapted to your life rather than you having to adapt to the curriculum.
Learn Business by Doing Business
You wouldn’t learn a musical instrument or a sport by reading about it – you’d play. The same goes for business: you learn by doing business .
Chances are that if you’re thinking of undertaking an MBA, you’re already doing business - leading, coaching, selling, measuring, planning, monitoring, holding others accountable for results, and so on.
Imagine an MBA program where you earn credit for consciously applying your studies to what you are already doing, rather than contrived group work, far-off case studies, or anything other than directly impacting your life and business where you are.
Our MBA faculty are player-coaches who will give you feedback from the perspective they’ve honed on the playing field themselves.
Become a Master of Many Trades
Forget the idea that a jack of all trades is a master of none. Today’s workplace demands that you constantly learn, grow, and adapt to an ever-changing environment
That is why we take a transdisciplinary approach – diving deep into business, philosophy, psychology, educational methodology, and neuroscience to develop leaders who win the hearts and minds of those they lead.
