ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — A new course at the University of
Michigan’s Ross School of Business Executive Education offers the chance
to learn about leadership by climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the school
announced Tuesday.
Professor Scott DeRue will lead the weeklong
course, which is scheduled to begin Dec. 29, the Ann Arbor school said.
The $14,300 cost includes tuition, climbing guide and park permit fees,
group gear and equipment, meals, ground transportation and three nights’
hotel stay in Tanzania.
Participants will lead the expedition, and DeRue will help translate lessons from
climbing the mountain to business leadership.
"Climbing
is the ideal experiential laboratory for learning leadership skills to
transform you and your organization’s performance," DeRue said in a
statement.
The course is designed to be suitable for beginners and
experienced hikers, the school said. It’s scheduled to be offered a
second time starting Sept. 9, 2013.
