The virtual event was hosted by Harbert College of Business at Auburn University and brought together over 65 attendees. 

The theme of the meeting was ‘Reflection, Renewal, Reimagined.’ Kim Kuerten, Executive Director of Graduate Executive Programs at Harbert College of Business, guided the attendees along with smiles all around during the opening and closing of the three days of the regional meeting.

The first day opened with ‘Reflection: South to a Very Old Place,’ as session led by Dr. Wayne Flight (Dept of History, Auburn) along with Kate Campbell, a singer/songwriter in Nashville, TN.

The second day included several enlightening sessions. Jaclyn Conner (Goizueta Business School) led a session called ‘The EMBA in the time of COVID,’ sharing the school’s experience with preparing to launch a new ONE EMBA format in Fall 2020 and then came COVID. She shared how her team developed solutions to offset the abrupt move to online delivery. The day also included sessions called ‘Global Business Immersions in a Post-Pandemic World’ and ‘Holistic Admissions.’
