This work contributes to a better understanding of how to develop emotional competencies of Management students, based on a review of the literature on emotional competencies, experiential learning and Outdoor Training. The results of this study were obtained through an experimental design pre-test/post-test/re-test with data from 108 students. It was found that most of those who participated in the program of Outdoor Training significantly improved their emotional competencies, both the personal and the social ones.
