It is ranked as one of the top EMBA programs in the country, is located close to my place of work, and has a great and diverse curriculum that provides both strong foundational classes as well as a wide array of elective classes that offers numerous specialization areas.

Excerpt from TODAY -- "If we think of being a good person as being without blind spots, never making a mistake, we put ourselves in a very tight corner with no window. There's no room to grow there. And what we know from years and years of psychological research is we all have blind spots. There's things we don't notice in our own behavior. Let's give ourselves room to grow: what I call being 'good-ish.'"

Excerpt from Financial Times -- "At New York University’s Stern School of Business, Jonathan Haidt, professor of ethical leadership, applies moral psychology to the way ethics is studied and integrated into the business curriculum.

Excerpt from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung -- (translated from German using Google Translate) "Cecchetti and Schoenholtz make three suggestions in their conference paper. [Their] first suggestion should be self-evident, but it is not yet: Central bank statements should be written in understandable language. This includes making a dissent among the decision-makers clear without getting lost in endless statements. Although it may be difficult to surpass the volubility of the members of the Central Bank Council of the Deutsche Bundesbank in the 1980s and early 1990s, there is now an increase in public statements by monetary policymakers to an extent that does not promote the dissemination of a clear message. The independence of from central banks is an important achievement, but in troubled times it is not sacrosanct. It is therefore not bad for the leadership of a central bank to be perceived as a capable team, rather than and not as a chronically quarreling bunch. Secondly, Cecchetti and Schoenholtz recommend clear statements from monetary policymakers regarding how they would change course as economic perspectives change. This is a very demanding proposal that is more likely to come to academic economists than practical monetary policy makers. It is not only difficult for monetary policymakers to communicate clearly how they would, for example, respond to an intensification of international trade conflicts. An overly detailed scenario analysis could also give monetary policymakers an excuse to be too active in responding to changes in the environment."

Excerpt from Business Insider -- "'The point is that power moves people in some predictable directions on average,' Joe Magee, a New York University psychologist who studies the psychological effects of power, told Business Insider in a phone interview. It's not so much a bias, he's careful to note, but a cognitive tendency or propensity."

Excerpt from Barron's -- "There could be reason to break up tech giants—it is just not antitrust-related. The antitrust debate aside, a spinoff approach might be a boon for investors. Scott Galloway, the serial entrepreneur and New York University marketing professor, says that Facebook could unlock value by spinning off its Instagram and WhatsApp units, while Google could do the same with YouTube."
