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. I was particularly interested in specialized classes in leadership and strategy.

'They gave me a living stipend and a lot of flexibility to work on my start-up… they took me on a trip to San Francisco where I got to meet angel investors that ended up investing in Pepper,' Winograd said. 'We built out a business plan as a part of a competition, and that pushed me to get into the streets to talk to customers, which helped my co-founder and I to get to different insights.'"
