Welcome from the YU EMBA Program Director

Today, in a world where new technologies are bringing us closer together, the management of international businesses is growing in complexity on an exponential basis. Keys to success require executives with international expertise as well as political insights, cultural sensitivity, partner networks, a good sense of humor, and an ability to make informed and timely decisions.
If your achievements have helped you to advance in your current position and you wish to continue both with your professional development and education, then the Al Yamamah University Executive Master of Business Administration, YU EMBA, may be the right move for you to make advance your career.

The YU EMBA is designed for busy executives who have to juggle work, family and social obligations. Through evening study with fellow executives, one week each month, you will position yourself to take advantage of a fast paced, comprehensive program to develop your leadership skills, while still being able to continue with your current employment. In 20 months, our world-class faculty will help broaden your horizons, deepen your understanding of your role in the international market place, and arm you with the skills need to advance your professional and personal goals.

Our program is rigorous, intensive, and demands a high level of commitment from each participant. If you believe that international leadership requires world-class competency and that such competency requires dedication and hard work, then I invite you to join us. Leadership is a skill, and like any other skill, it can be studied in a book, but perfected only with practice.
