"You are not a number that is lost in the group; professors and staff give genuine care to students. This is an extremely important piece in helping me fulfill my professional and personal goals."

From her time at EMS, Sewards notes the “great listening skills” and “that peace ethic and conflict resolution [that] rippled through every class.”

"I chose EMU’s MA in Organizational Leadership program because of its unique emphasis on business with purpose. I came out of it understanding how to lead that purposeful business with your true self … that combination has had a huge positive impact on me personally and professionally."

“The program jump-started my career and enhanced my personal and professional development. The curriculum is practical and enjoyable while the EMU community is inclusive and supportive. I made lifelong friends in our tight-knit cohort."

“As leaders, we are always embracing organizational changes. This program has helped me to better understand the differences between ‘change’ and ‘transition.’ From my studies, I believe I am becoming a more compassionate leader."
