Notable Alumni
“I was surrounded by people wanting to be drivers of positive business change. My professors emphasized while business leadership is about making decisions, leadership in the community—considering the welfare of your family, friends, and neighbors—is about making decisions grounded in ethics and who you are as a person.”

“Chaminade’s MBA allowed me to build on my foundation of knowledge and focus on academic areas where I wasn’t quite as strong. I also found great value in the Hogan Entrepreneurial Program, hearing first-hand from Hawai’i executives about how they approach leadership, prepare for market ups and downs and set their companies up for successful futures.”

And in our classes, the faculty were able to bring in industry and community leaders—it was thoughtprovoking and it challenged us to think about business differently and how we can give back th Hawai’i.”
