Executive Coaching To Enhance Effectiveness

After you join the Executive MBA program, you will be assigned an executive coach. You and your coach will work together to enhance your interpersonal skills and your career prospects. The coaching process emphasizes a sophisticated personality profile assessment, The Birkman Method. Students have the option of working with their coach on a formal leadership development program designed around theTransformational Leadership Model..

Our Executive MBA program has been recognized by the International Coach Federation (ICF), the professional association for professional coaches. In 2006 ICF awarded the UT Dallas Executive MBA program the prestigious International Prism Award for its leadership in executive coaching.

"By working with my own executive coach I gained a better understanding of myself and others. As a result, I became more effective with peers, subordinates and superiors. With my coach's help, I also identified three areas of personal performance I wanted to strengthen. We created an action plan, I implemented it, and I am very pleased with the results."
