About Linda Hagan

I\'m an academic and higher learning administrator who applies my corporate business background, love of learning, and interest in ethical and best business practices to develop students to be successful leaders and entrepreneurs.| I approach teaching business from an interdisciplinary foundation, that the best business education and leadership development comes from learning not only about business, but other fields, too.| I enjoy connecting students with professional role models and giving students opportunities to travel globally.| My skills include marketing, reputation management, public relations, crisis communication, and executive coaching.| Born in Detroit, and having worked in the automotive industry, I\'m a Car Gal.
