Hmmmm, very interesting. Because of the nature of my online PhD, I've just been invited to join a Leadership Center affiliated to the management school of the university I'm studying at. This really helps me, because it means that some of my study will be in company of like-minded PhD students, and because the center is likely to be affiliated to other, more prestigious centers around the world.
The most exciting thing is to study with other people who have achieved things in their industrial careers, but now want to look to back up their experiences with some of the present theory, and turn their practice into theory that will help to inform the managers of the future. Co-operating online will be one of the major advantages, as we are all working in organisations or doing consultancy ourselves.
Amazing what you can sign up to when you elect to study an online degree.
