Theres and Kevin's Excellent Adventure

Theres Stiefer and Kevin Rose, director and assistant director of Executive Education, respectively, had the opportunity to spend three days visiting with business leaders throughout the state of Arkansas.

The purpose of the trip was to determine and discuss the role of Executive Education and to see how our center might better serve Arkansas in the area of professional development. Upon returning to Fayetteville, Theres and Kevin hoped to have successfully completed the following.

• Determine the evolving needs for executive education and leadership development programs


• Illicit ideas for new initiatives and improvements to existing programs


• Increase awareness of our services among the companies visited.

We also discussed our upcoming programs, including Disney Keys to Business Excellence, Emerging Leaders Program, and Supervisory Leadership Series, among others.
