Bridging Distance, Time, and Culture in Executive MBA Education

This article summarizes student and instructor experiences in an innovative MBA program designed for working executives. We describe the social aspects of this learning process, especially with regard to learning in the distance mode. We note the challenges and opportunities of distance learning for students and faculty, and we identify critical components of learning success in programs that aim to link traditional university education with corporate life at an international level.
