In October 2010, as I contemplated the major shift that was underway in my
life I realized that I would need to become conversant in an entirely new
field. While my past experience in
leadership, change management, operations, and human resources would be relevant
and applicable this was an entirely new landscape for me and I needed ways to
come up to speed quickly.
I was led to the Pepperdine University Graduate School of
Education and Psychology (http://gsep.pepperdine.edu/welcome/mission/)
where I discovered a Master’s Degree in Social Entrepreneurship and Change
program that seemed to be tailor made to meet the needs of my transition. I was immediately interested, signed up for
an information session, and began the application process for the Spring 2011
Cohort.
The program brochure http://gsep.pepperdine.edu/masters-social-entrepreneurship-and-change/content/sec-program-brochure.pdf
provides a great overview of the objectives and content of the program, and as
I am now finishing up my third term and preparing for my Global Change
Experience (see Champions Education Alliance page on this blog) I can attest to
the quality of the program, and the incredible value it is providing as I
continue my immersion into the field of Social Entrepreneurship and Change.
