Global Business School network

In collaboration with the University of Connecticut Global Business Programs and Global Business School Network (GBSN), Women Emerging is running a virtual expedition for global business schools across the world. The 20 members represent seven institutions from North America, South America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia. Diverse in terms of generation, specialism and background, over the 7 month expedition they will explore what leadership means to them individually and collective of women studying in global business schools.

Julia Middleton, the Founder of Women Emerging and Katie McEvoy, the Chief Operations Officer at Women Emerging will co-lead the expedition. Fjona Mema will support their efforts as the Community Manger.

As the expedition progresses, participants from across the world of business will learn from one another and be guided by established leaders who will share their experiences and insights.

Expedition members will emerge with a clear individual approach to leading and work together to produce a common expression of leadership which can be shared with women across their institutions and with the wider global business school network. After completing their expedition they will join the Women Emerging Expedition Alumni community which will continue to support, connect and nourish them as they move forward in their journey leading
