Abstract | This study examined the effectiveness of the Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) degree program in terms of transfer of knowledge and leadership practices. Based on a review of literature related to adult learning theories, EMBA programs, the importance of evaluation practices, and leadership practices, this study was designed to determine whether an EMBA education can lead to the transfer of knowledge at workplaces to demonstrate and facilitate an employee's leadership skills. Findings from this study showed that the curriculum and the transfer of knowledge were the most significant predictors of the use of leadership practices. Age and gender were found influential in the development of leadership skills. A significant finding was that curriculum was the most salient factor in determining the effectiveness of the transfer of knowledge and in promoting the use of leadership practices.
