The Fudan University-University of Washington EMBA Program is an EMBA program jointly offered by the Olin School of Business of the University of Washington and the School of Management of Fudan University. In the 2022 Global EMBA Rankings released by the Financial Times (FT), the Fudan University-University of Washington EMBA program ranked 9th in the world, and its academic research ranked first in Asia for three consecutive years.
The Fudan University-University of Washington Executive MBA Program is a full-time part-time learning program taught entirely in English. The program pioneered a Sino-foreign joint teaching mode, in which American professors served as the main professors for each course, and professors from Fudan University served as joint professors. The syllabus is designed after the Olin Business School EMBA program, but it is also adapted to the specific needs of Asian business leaders, closely linked to the current economic environment, and focuses on the development of global management, leadership and innovation capabilities.
May 10-13 The program will be open for trial of the Leadership course if you have:
· At least 10 years of work experience, including more than 5 years of management experience
· Bachelor's degree or equivalent

Course Description
If there is one topic that spans across all areas of business—from accounting and finance to marketing and logistics (and, of course, people management)—it is leadership. Leadership is often implicated as the key factor that drives either the success or failure of an organization. And, accordingly, the factors that drive effective leadership have been the focus of a considerable amount of attention from researchers, businesspeople, and popular press commentators. Yet, despite the volume of interest in this topic, it often seems mysterious. People hold widely varying views about what makes someone an effective leader, what behaviors constitute effective leadership, and even the very concept of leadership effectiveness. That is, what does it mean for someone to be “effective” as a leader?
Leadership is a discipline that encompasses all areas of business, including accounting, finance, marketing, modern logistics, and talent management. Leadership is often considered to be the key factor that drives the success or failure of a team, so how to improve leadership effectiveness has been the focus of many academics, business people, and the mass media. However, despite the widespread attention that has been paid to this issue, it remains inconclusive. Everyone has different opinions on how to be an effective leader and what effective leadership is.
