Formula

An MIT Sloan formula for success
The MIT Sloan Fellows Program in Innovation and Global Leadership is not time off from business. It is a period of intense immersion in a globally-oriented environment that gives participants the rare opportunity to strategize with international colleagues. The program's innovative team convergence paradigm maximizes the value of the intensive interactions between fellows. The class is segmented into small study groups of four fellows, but members of those study groups regularly work with members of the other study groups through this dynamic team model.

Building knowledge is important, but knowing how to use that knowledge to advantage is what distinguishes the most effective leaders. For this reason, the program concentrates on building a strong foundation of practical skills and firsthand experiences that students will draw on during the most pivotal years of their careers.

MIT Sloan Fellows will find that the curriculum invigorates their spirit of intellectual adventure and primes their minds for ideas and possibilities they would not have had time to explore in the day-to-day course of doing business.

The rigor of the program, combined with incomparable opportunities for global networking and experiential learning, translates into results, which is why the program draws immense interest from sponsor organizations, students, and the larger global business community.


“Fellows come from small organizations and multinationals. They are founders of companies and successful entrepreneurs. High-level managers working side by side with agile entrepreneurs produces a climate that is absolutely remarkable. And their extraordinary quality as individuals raises the standards of the class and makes it what it is.”
