Boston University Executive MBA Program What BU EMBA Sponsors Say “The Boston University EMBA was a great investment for our company. We were able to send a high potential executive to program who had limited P/L experience prior to EMBA. She was able to complete the program in a short period of time, maintained existing job performance, and came back to the business ready to take on more responsibility. We were able to move her immediately into a senior marketing role with P/L responsibility. She was able to perform at an extremely high level, achieving top quartile year over year sales increases in a very competitive market.” M. Crosby, COO Irving Oil, Sponsor of Kathi Webber, Director, Business to Consumer Marketing “I have been very impressed by the Executive MBA Program at BU. It has enabled Amula to enhance her global perspective on issues confronting our organization. In addition the program has afforded her the opportunity to strengthen her leadership abilities and begin to take a strategic perspective across the functional divisions of our business.” Joseph W. LeBon, Regional Manager Bayer HealthCare Sponsor of Amula Patel, Executive Surgical Sales Consultant, Bayer HealthCare
