Introductions
I invite you to discover the valuable difference that a Master of Science in Strategic Leadership (MSL) degree from Roberts Wesleyan College will provide you! Having spent over 10 years working in human resources for one of the nation’s top employers, I hired graduates from some of the best MBA schools and quickly realized they were ill-equipped for servicing diverse customer needs and leading people. The traditional MBA program is designed to equip learners with knowledge on how to manage processes (accounting, marketing, finance, etc). What was needed was a graduate degree that developed emerging leaders and equipped them to provide ethical fortitude, inspiring vision, strategic agility, humble service, and a capacity to build effective teams and communities.
The MSL program was created for this very purpose – a cutting edge and challenging program where developing managers and leaders can engage the faculty, staff, and students from a diverse cross-section of industries and organizational segments that include for-profit, not-for-profit, government, church, military, and other organizations. Students emerge 17 months later as scholar practitioners that are equipped with the new knowledge and skills necessary to create significant value for themselves and their organizations.
At Roberts Wesleyan College we are committed to making a difference in the lives of our students and the organizations that serve our expanding community. The MSL program is designed to meet the call in the lives of life long learners and leaders that are looking to enhance their potential. If this describes you, then I invite you to join the Roberts Wesleyan College family of graduate scholars and begin today by starting the application process. We invite your questions and encourage you to visit our campus.
God’s blessings and my regards to you as you pursue your careers and dreams!
Sincerely,
Dr. Joel R. Hoomans
Director of Graduate Studies
