Advisory Board members provide valuable input in curricular, entrepreneurial, strategic, community engagement, and overall performance regards to the School of Business, with clear allegiance to the School’s mission. The board consists of individuals who have diverse experience in business involvement, from being founders and leaders of their own businesses, to fulfilling important roles in established business organizations.
Members of the School of Business Advisory Board schedule office hours each week, sharing insights and experiences, counseling on Shark Tank-style elevator pitches and responding to student queries in their respective areas of expertise. The rotating Executive-in-Residence program is housed in the School’s Center for Entrepreneurship.
The rotating Executive-in-Residence Program is a result of the School’s efforts to augment business connectivity and provide real-world guidance to undergraduate and MBA students. The program augments Woodbury’s active internship, mentorship, and civic engagement efforts, bringing business acumen to campus in a personalized, compelling fashion.”
The “Creative Minds Conference,” is a major opportunity for students from throughout the Woodbury community to interface with local business executives. The School’s Advisory Board members invite business relatives to join them in meeting with our students and providing career advice in a broad sense.
