Prof. Breitner says the design of the course draws from past experiences in successful teaching innovation in two of the faculty’s executive education programs – the International Masters for Health Leadership (where she serves as its international director) and the school’s International Masters in Practicing Management, founded by Prof. Mintzberg.
Both mid-career executive programs feature a mix of online and in-class instruction, with the emphasis on promoting personal and class reflection, peer-to-peer interaction and opportunities for participants to connect theory and practice.
