Professor Darby Sanchez is passionate about preparing students to compete in the real world.Her teaching is informed by more than 20 years of business management experience on 4 continents: North America, South America, Asia, and Europe.
Sanchez’s business career taught her a range of management skills: to develop products and services; to strategize business growth; to manage finances; and (not least important) to develop and lead people.
The management major’s appeal, says Sanchez, is its usefulness in all types of organizations, whether a government institution, a church, a multinational corporation, a family-owned business, or a non-profit.
Classroom engagement is important in Sanchez’s classes. She says, “I want my students to talk, to ask questions, to work on projects in teams. They can’t just sit and listen to me lecture.”
Sanchez believes her Texas Tech-CR students face limitless possibilities. “I grew up a Latin female in Miami, and I became a tech CEO in Asia, surrounded by men. If I could do that, my students can definitely do anything they want.”
