Benefits to sponsoring organizations include: 

Create a Leader: The University of Tennessee's Executive Education program is designed to create leaders who will add value to the organization from "day one" of the program through graduation and beyond. The comprehensive Leadership Development Program assesses everything from analytical skills and executive character to life balance and interpersonal skills, and a customized plan is developed by each student and his or her faculty advisor to enhance leadership acumen over the course of the 12 month program. The result is employees who are fit for life and fit for leadership.

Retain Assets: Companies that send executives to this program demonstrate a dedication to improving and retaining the leadership within their companies. This support for employee growth often delivers immediate payoffs including increased loyalty and productivity.

Tap the Think Tank: When a company sends a manager to the Executive Education program, the organization gains access to the resources of The University of Tennessee's internationally acclaimed College of Business Administration. This means the organization will stay on top of contemporary strategic thinking in lean manufacturing, customer value research, trend forecasting, industrial/organizational psychology and process design.

Catalyze Custom Solutions: Executives who enroll in The University of Tennessee's Executive Education Program immediately learn skills and principles that they can take from the classroom into their day-to-day business operations. From beginning to end, assignments are tied directly to their organization and industry. This allows managers to work on strategic initiatives to move their organization forward while earning their MBA.

Maintain Momentum: The innovative residence period structure and distance learning module condenses a two-year degree into a one-year schedule that creates less disruption to sponsoring organizations than any other internationally ranked, fully accredited Executive Education Program.
