Transcript of MIT SLOAN FELLOWS PROGRAM
The MIT Sloan Fellows Program is a one-year, full-time
MBA or MS program for executives of exceptional
promise. Alumni say this global leadership
laboratory is unequaled in the world today. For more
than 80 years, in fact, some of the world’s most
infl uential leaders have relied upon it. There’s a reason
for that. Read on.
A year of profound consequence.
It all starts with three powerful pillars.
The program’s rigorous curriculum is created on the
foundation of three interdependent pillars—leadership,
innovation, and global perspective.
1. Leadership
MIT defi nes successful leadership by impact, not position.
Our program has educated generations of leaders who
have gone on to shape the futures of organizations. We
integrate the teachings of the most infl uential experts on
leadership—researchers and practitioners—to give you the
knowledge and experiences you need to:
› enhance your global leadership skills so that you are
confi dent and effective in any environment
› leverage and build your own leadership abilities and
know how to address your limitations
› manage, develop, and motivate people to innovate and
embrace change
2. Innovation
If the 25,000+ companies founded by MIT alumni formed
an independent nation, it would have the 11th-largest
economy in the world. As an MIT Sloan Fellow, you are
positioned to tap this ecosystem to develop a new
enterprise or drive productive change at an established
organization. You will leave the program equipped to:
› champion innovation within an organization or across
society
› lead the innovation process knowing how to optimize
systems
› understand the many factors that determine whether a
new enterprise succeeds
3. Global perspective
Working shoulder-to-shoulder with fellows from 30+
countries, you share strategies, hard-won wisdom, and
successes—as well as your most stubborn challenges.
After one year in the MIT Sloan Fellows Program, you will:
› view the world through a broader lens with a greater
understanding of how economic, social, and political
factors can impact an organization
› acquire the skills, credibility, and confi dence to conduct
business globally
› rely on a network of trusted advisors working in every
region of the world
“What you need are the essential tools, network, and
environment to develop and drive new ideas into the
world, and MIT gives you all that. In this program,
you learn to think.”

Welcome families into the network.
The partners and families of your peers
are key members of the personal and
professional network you build in the
program. They are fully integrated into
the MIT Sloan Fellows community,
participating in community-wide activities
and cultural events.
By graduation, families have forged lifelong
friendships within the MIT Sloan Fellows
community and beyond. Many look back on
their year in New England as one of the best
of their lives, an invaluable bonding
experience, a year of pivotal growth for
adults and children alike. As Scott Gutz,
SF ’08, remembers, “My family had an
MIT Sloan Fellows experience that was as
precious to them as mine was to me.”
Absorb a wealth of
collective wisdom.
Immersing yourself for one year with 100+
gifted leaders from across the global manage-
ment spectrum is like spending a year with
100+ living case studies. As your peers share
perspectives gained and lessons learned during
their careers, their experiences become your
experiences—how a South African entrepreneur
has transformed the national mobile telephone
marketplace, for example, or how the marketing
director of a Brazilian cosmetics giant launched a
successful campaign in Asia.
During 12 months together in study groups
and team projects, you will develop a global
knowledge alliance that stretches across
industries, cultures, and continents. Years later,
when your company is poised to enter a
competitive sector for the fi rst time or your
agency is initiating a coalition with a foreign gov-
ernment, you will have infl uential advisors
in place who can answer crucial questions
and open closed doors.
“Your fellow students are the best of the best. I remember looking across the classroom and thinking: just the dozen of us in this room could change the world.”M A R C E L O B A L L E S T I E R O , S F ’ 1 0 \ B R A Z I L

Build a dynamic global network.
A G L O B A L C O M M U N I T Y
“I strategized with the world’s top aeronautics scientists,
explored pivotal technological innovations at the MIT
Media Lab, learned from leading security experts in
political science—even tapped the latest thinking on
defense policy at Harvard Kennedy School. If it was
essential to me as a leader, I could reach across the MIT
universe and get it.”

Explore the potential of teamwork.
Working together in fi ve-person study
groups created for maximum diversity,
you will address every challenge through
a broad range of academic, professional,
and cultural lenses. By reaching beyond
what you know and incorporating the
perspectives of others, you will fi nd yourself
thinking about yourself and the world
differently—and achieving what you never
could have achieved on your own. In this
global forum, you will exercise collective
leadership and decision-making skills, while
building confi dence in the strength of your
own contributions.
At the conclusion of the summer term, you
will fi nd that you are well prepared for the
required and elective courses that will follow
during the fall and spring terms. Equally
important, you will have developed strong
bonds among your Sloan Fellows peers—
a foundation of trust that is essential
for deep personal and professional
development. These experiences are
augmented by several hours of one-on-one
executive coaching throughout the year,
a compelling tool that will assist you in
fi ne-tuning your professional objectives
and personal development.
Expand your knowledge.
In a global arena where the shelf life of
trends is unpredictable and best practices
are in a continual state of fl ux, you must
develop deep knowledge that you can
leverage in any situation. That’s what the
12-week summer term is all about. After an
eye-opening week of orientation, you and
your peers will build a common foundation
of essential management topics, forming
the groundwork of your study at MIT.
As a close-knit group, you will advance
your skills, investigate the latest break-
throughs in business, and earn the practical
wisdom necessary to excel as leaders in an
increasingly volatile world. You will explore
tested theories and frameworks, exercising
your collective knowledge in team projects
and working closely with internationally

“This program is a strategic integration of soft skills and hard knowledge. The economics of information technology. System dynamics and how complex organizations work. Using data to analyze trends and predict outcomes. Negotiating contracts and navigating diffi cult situations. I use this knowledge every single day and in ways I never could have predicted.”

Map the program to your goals.
Building upon the summer foundation,
you now have the opportunity to tailor the
program to your own professional goals.
The feeling of momentum is palpable as you
begin to leverage the full range of resources
available to you as a Sloan Fellow at MIT.
During the fall semester, you choose
from electives offered at MIT Sloan, across
MIT, and at Harvard University. You also
will be able to choose from an array of
action-learning courses that combine
management theory with hands-on projects
in existing organizations.
“The professors at MIT are the best of the best in their fi elds. I found their insights illuminating and their knowledge bottomless. You know that what you’re learning is the very latest thinking in the technology and management arenas.”

Put your leadership skills into action.
By the fall term, you will fi nd that your
interactions with peers, the faculty, the MIT
environment, and the wider community have
begun to transform the way you think about
yourself, the world, and your role in it. With
a formidable storehouse of new knowledge
and a more sophisticated global perspective,
you will fi nd that you have developed greater
confi dence in your own abilities and opinions.
You also are ready to investigate leadership
in action. As a cohort and in small groups,
you will meet with international business
and government leaders for candid, face-
to-face conversations. You will meet other
infl uential leaders during a trip to New York
City—the fi rst of three business trips during
your MIT Sloan Fellows year.
The month of January at MIT is a community-wide
knowledge fest called Independent Activities Period
(IAP)—a long and much celebrated Institute tradition.
Members of the community share with one another
what they know best, from nuclear physics to
chocolate science.
IAP offers you a choice of 700+ learning experiences,
including intensive academic courses geared to
building expertise related to the program’s three pillars—
leadership, innovation, and global perspective.
Without the usual distractions of the academic
semester, you will have the luxury of concentrating fully
on courses like social entrepreneurship, negotiation, and
the human side of enterprise—or branch off and study
Italian, environmental design, or the art of the Japanese
tea ceremony.
Tap our vast resources to achieve your goals.
Push the boundaries of your learning experience.
Exercise your options.
You have the option of conducting an
in-depth analysis of solutions vital to your
future or to the future of your company
by embarking on a thesis project or an
independent study—efforts that many
fellows leverage for professional advance-
ment. Or you might opt to participate in the
MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition
as a member of a team of interdisciplinary
innovators who pool their expertise to
launch a new product or service.
Spring also means travel—to San
Francisco and Silicon Valley to explore the
power of innovation and to Washington, DC
to examine global controversies throughout
the world that threaten the health of
markets, economies, and populations.
Many of the leaders you’ll meet during the
capstone trip to Washington will personify
the triumph of leadership, innovation,
and global perspective—the three pillars
of the MIT Sloan Fellows Program at work
in the world.
Reach across the community.
By the spring term, much of the
foundational knowledge you have gained
will be second nature to you. You will have
worked with it, relied upon it, and used it
to solve real management problems. You
will fi nd yourself weaving together the
myriad elements of your Sloan Fellows
year, combining knowledge, skills, and
experiences as the challenge requires.
And you are now fully part of the MIT
community. You know how to access
the resources at your disposal, such as
faculty and research centers, campus
organizations and conferences, entrepre-
neurial competitions and new enterprises.
Then there’s the Kendall Square Innovation
District, the neighborhood that surrounds
MIT Sloan. Here, new enterprises rub
shoulders with some of the world’s most
infl uential corporations—from Microsoft
and Google to Novartis and Pfi zer.

“The intellectual climate is exhilarating. You are among global movers and shakers, adding your own perspectives to the mix. I talked frankly with faculty and global leaders I had admired for years and knew I was contributing to dialogues that were shaping business.”

Leverage a lifetime of benefi ts.
You are not an MIT Sloan Fellow for just one year.
Think of this as a continually growing and lifelong
relationship. MIT provides a steady stream of
opportunities to update your knowledge, learn
about late-breaking developments in management
and industry, and connect with the people and
resources you need. And you don’t have to travel to
Cambridge to take advantage of many of these events.
Often, we bring them to your region or provide an
online platform.
“Every day, I feel the impact of my Sloan
Fellows experience. I am more innovative, more
strategic, more global in my thinking. The value
of the program is integral to everything I do
and everything I am. I keep waiting for that
sensation to abate, but it doesn’t.”

A note to company sponsors.
Can I spare this pivotal employee for a full year?
That’s one of the most frequent questions we hear
from organizations deciding whether to send one of
their most talented mid-career managers to the
MIT Sloan Fellows Program. The fact is, that year at
MIT can be every bit as impactful for the organization
as it is for the fellow. Many global organizations rely
on the program to prepare their most promising
leaders for executive suite positions or upcoming
challenges—particularly when those challenges are
complex, multidimensional, and global in nature.
Reach out to us to discuss how you can integrate the
MIT Sloan Fellows Program into your professional
development strategy.

Meet your network.
The network you enter as an MIT Sloan Fellow is a personal and professional
asset of incalculable value. It extends from your 100+ close colleagues in the
program to the larger network of 3,500+ Sloan Fellows alumni, 20,000+ MIT
Sloan alumni, and 120,000+ MIT alumni. It reaches across every continent but
Antarctica—and is attainable by no other means than through your experience
as an MIT Sloan Fellow.
As a graduate of the program, you will count the following leaders among your
alumni network:
mitsloan.mit.edu/fellows/MIT Sloan Fellows Program | MIT Sloan School of Management
Massachusetts Institute of Technology | 50 Memorial Drive | Suite E52-255 | Cambridge, MA 02142-1347 U.S.A.

“Dedicating 12 months to this program is one of the
most strategic investments you can make in your career.
It’s a year that pays off in ways you could never imagine.
I have a better head for fi nance, negotiation, and global
business practice. I have greater emotional intelligence
and cultural awareness. I am a more effective leader and
a better person. And I have trusted business advisors—
my fellow alumni—on the ground all over the world. Yes,
you would improve during those same 12 months on the
job, but you would never approach the level of growth
you achieve as a Sloan Fellow.”
