Suffolk MBA EDGE – Ensuring Professional Development

When asked what they were looking for in a potential employee or an employee to promote up the ranks, corporate recruiters and executives indicated there’s much more to gaining a competitive edge than academics.

The Suffolk MBA EDGE program provides professional development workshops throughout the year, open to all MBA students, across all campuses. Executive Coaches and Corporate Consultants lead all sessions.

Recent Suffolk MBA EDGE events include:

  • Corporate Communication Day
  • Perfecting Your Pitch Workshop 
  • Dean's MBA Networking Reception
  • Tech Day--Excel Workshops 
  • MBA Power Lunch/How to Outclass the Competition
  • Breakfast with a Leader Series
  • Boardroom Leadership Series
  • Getting on the "Upward Spiral" in Your Post-MBA Role
  • Corporate Trips
  • Resume Writing/Cover Letter Workshop
  • Interview Skills Workshop
  • Executive Search Firm VIP Round Table

“As someone who earned my undergraduate degree while working full-time, I was expecting my MBA experience to be similar--no contacts outside the classroom, no sense of being part of the school, etc.  I was extremely pleased with the EDGE program and the many opportunities it provided to network with alumni, faculty, and other MBAs who are working professionals.”
