The world-renowned Columbia Business School in New York City is introducing the Executive Challenge to this year’s MCM. High-power military and civilian leaders, who are registered to participate in the MCM, can compete against other CEOs, presidents, commissioned military officers, and other senior executives to earn bragging rights as the fastest executive.
So pass the word to leadership or, if this describes you, register for the MCM Lottery before March 29. Then, upon a positive confirmation on March 30, sign up to participate in the Executive Challenge.
In addition to all the great MCM participant benefits, runners competing in the Executive Challenge will receive:
- A chance to win a 2- or 3-day program at Columbia Business School Executive Education
- A subscription to exclusive thought leadership from Columbia Business School
- The official Columbia Business School Executive Challenge t-shirt
The Executive Challenge is open to business leaders across industries, fields, and functions. It’s free to join once a qualified runner has been successfully registered for the MCM. Contact Columbia Business School with questions.
A special leaderboard will be accessible in the live MCM results during the October 22 event to track the Executives along the course. The winner will be announced by the Columbia Business School in a newspaper ad on the day following the MCM.
