determine what set of skills globally focused, multinational organizations look for when hiring or
promoting for a management position.
This program incorporates a cohort model of learning, meaning students will start and finish the
program together. In addition to the CityU faculty who have decades of real-world, business experience,
guest lecturers from leading Seattle-based multinationals help to enhance the program’s curriculum by
offering practical business leadership perspectives.

skills necessary to lead global teams, communicate cross-culturally, navigate and improve global
organizations, and make socially responsible decisions. You also will attain substantial industry and
leadership experience while establishing valuable professional networks in the process.
