Message From the Director

Dear Prospective Fordham Gabelli Executive MBA students, welcome to our program!

Over the past 24 years I have served as EMBA director, and it has truly been an honor and privilege to introduce prospective students to a program that transforms their lives and careers in so many ways.

The 22-month Gabelli School Executive MBA is not simply an advanced degree, it is an academic journey—one that you will embark upon with dynamic, professionally diverse, and spirited individuals, as well as the support of our EMBA team members, who will guide you every step of the way.

The program was developed to provide the knowledge, skills, resilience, empathy, and integrity to lead in a constantly changing global business environment—one that poses unprecedented challenges and myriad new opportunities.

The powerful dynamic of the Executive MBA's vibrant classroom interaction, continuous exchange of ideas, and deeply purposeful approach to teaching and learning is best experienced by visiting campus and sitting in on a class. We would be delighted to host you and have you witness this thought leadership, energy, and camaraderie first-hand.

We are recruiting another amazing class of talented individuals who are ready to take the next step in their careers and would love to have you become a part of it!

Sincerely,

Francis Petit, Ed.D.
Associate Dean of Global Initiatives and Partnerships
Director of the Executive MBA
Fordham University Gabelli School of Business
