Executive M.B.A.

Already involved in an entrepreneurial enterprise, Sean Flaherty brought background knowledge as well as enthusiasm to his studies in Simon’s E.M.B.A. program. He knew he needed to deepen his understanding of business, especially as it pertained to entrepreneurship, to prepare himself for the challenges of larger businesses than he had experienced so far. Simon exceeded his expectations. Most impressive to him as he worked and studied was the immediate applicability of what he learned to his business environment. Sean‘s company, ITX Corp., is an award-winning web technology and hosting firm in Pittsford, NY.

“My Simon education helped me create product offerings, structure acquisitions and grow the business in many ways. Some of the tools we built in classes I have actually modified for real-world use in my business. The balance between the necessary theoretical components and the practical application of that theory through real-world examples and case studies is unique at Simon.”
