What our graduates are saying
Wayne Leevy
EMBA 1997
Vice Chairman
Mitchell & Titus, LLP
"Executive MBA professors encourage a lot of debate and discussion, and the interaction with professors and the other students was exciting. I felt the greatest impact from the human resource courses. They helped me understand other people’s point of view. They focus you on working as a team player, which is helpful even when you’re the boss.
I think the program is terrific. The way it brings together a diverse group of people and keeps them all interested in learning is incredible."

President & CEO
Parkway Clinical Laboratories
"At the conclusion of almost two years that are dominated, at different times, by varying sentiments, the EMBA program comes together as a powerful package that can potentially translate into sizeable opportunity of intellectual, social and financial success.
Besides academic excellence, the EMBA program also provides a unique opportunity to network with corporate icons through active participation in various affiliated programs, such as the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Institute, Irwin L Gross e-business institute, Institute of Global Management studies......
In summary, it is a tremendous experience of teaming up, as a cohort, with a select group of zealous peers who are committed to transform their notions of Covert Intrapreneurship into Overt Entrepreneurship........."
Agustin Legido
EMBA 1998
Section Chief of Neurology, St. Christopher's Hospital for Children
Professor, Drexel University College of Medicine
"The Executive EMBA Program at Temple (Fox Business School) was crucial to make me a more competitive physician in a business oriented high quality health care environment. In grand part because of it, I was promoted to Section Chief of Neurology at St. Christopher's Hospital for Children and to full Professor at Drexel University College of Medicine.
The academic promotions were accompanied by a substantial financial compensation. I understand now better how to practice quality of care-, customer satisfaction-driven medicine taking into consideration that financial resources are not unlimited. Good management implies responsible accountability. To me, good business practice of medicine equals to Hippocratic Oath-based practice of health care, there is no incompatibility.
Overall, it is clear that The EMBA Program was the best investment that I could do in this stage of my life. The Executive Program at Fox Business School provided me with the tools to continue to succeed and grow at a professional and personal level."
