At MIT, leadership is not a person or a position. It is a process of surfacing and solving problems. At the MIT Leadership Center, your leadership development journey starts with self-awareness and reflection. Students can then better recognize how to identify the right resources to solve complex problems (or identify great opportunities) at the individual, the team, and the organizational levels. You learn to seek diverse opinions, manage conflict, and reflect on your experiences.

And true to MIT’s ethos, you test and refine your personalized approach to leading again and again. Our integrated method of teaching leadership combines science-based frameworks, personalized coaching, and practical application that develops highly effective leaders.

Through your MBA program, you can engage with the MIT Leadership Center to help solidify your leadership approach and to develop into the principled innovative leader we know the world needs now.
