Professor Gilad Chen spent his first Chinese Teacher’s Day in Beijing at the Global Leadership Executive MBA class on September 10, 2016. The EMBA students and the staff of Smith office surprised Prof. Chen with gifts and a card signed by all students of the Cohort 9 to appreciate his guidance and devotion.
Prestigious business and management faculty (ranked #4 according to The Economist 2015) from the Smith School travels from home campus to Beijing every month, and delivers the world-class lectures to the EMBA students here with remarkable profession and great passion. Our community of scholars and practitioners is deeply supportive of learning while equipping students to succeed in an often contentious marketplace.
Happy Teacher's Day, Dear Smith Professors!
Thank you for continually inspiring us to do our best!
