We are excited to announce the new Flex MBA. This program is designed to offer professionals like you the flexibility in curriculum and scheduling you need to reach your goals. It features the same courses in general management, leadership and strategy as the Executive MBA, including the innovative Drucker Executive Platform.

We will be launching additional programs for senior professionals and executives next year.


The executive of tomorrow knows that effective leadership requires keen judgment as well as the ability to inspire. With an emphasis on leadership and strategy, Drucker’s highly flexible Executive MBA (EMBA) program is an ideal learning environment for working professionals wishing to broaden their career options and learn to “see the future as it happens.” We aspire to create change agents and visionary leaders ready to lead their organizations to the future.

The EMBA program targets mid- to senior-level managers and entrepreneurs looking to hone their leadership skills and sound strategic decision making. Drawing upon the seminal works and ideas of Peter F. Drucker, you will undertake rigorous exploration of leadership and management fundamentals and apply what you learn in a variety of business contexts. The Drucker School setting allows you to do this in an environment that features flexible scheduling geared toward working professionals, innovative curriculum, award-winning faculty, and intimate class sizes. And, in contrast to other EMBA programs, you can enroll at any time and complete at your pace, as it is not cohort-based. The Drucker School is Southern California’s only customizable executive management program that prepares tomorrow’s leaders today to make a global difference.
