Supportive Professors 

Professors at Anderson University are highly experienced, with many having served as VP Executives for leading corporations.

Many courses in your MOL will apply the Case Study Method. Professors model the methods used to dig down to the heart of a problem, enabling you to understand different perspectives and make wise decisions as a manager in the workplace.  They will bring in a Biblical perspective into the course, providing the essential ethical platform needed for authentic and servant leadership. This will develop critical thinking skills to help you:

1. Identify Business Problems and Opportunities
2. Apply Business Tools to Solve Issues
3. Analyze Business Data to Develop Informed Strategy
4. Communicate Business Initiatives to Stakeholders
5. Lead based on Business Ethics and Biblical Principles

Paired with an expert understanding of business strategies and team dynamics, your influence has the potential to generate more than profit – you'll cultivate an empowered, thriving workplace.
