The executive MBA is a full-fledged MBA program for experienced managers, who are either already in top positions in their organizations, or are aspiring future top managers. Most EMBA programs require that participants have a minimum of five to six years of managerial experience (EMBA classes often have age ranges of 30 to 50+

years).

Why EMBA?

Why does the executive MBA program maintain its popularity? After all, the program requires a considerable investment of time and money from both employer and employee. For IESE Business School’s EMBA alumna Ana Paul Reis, General Manager at Selplus, a company specialized in sales management services, the impact of the program was felt immediately. She says, “I am amazed at how much I learnt in the first week alone. It has changed my view on business and the way I look at the world. I’m making some changes to my company as a result.”

Participants walk away from each class with immediately applicable skills and knowledge, as well as a holistic approach to understanding and solving business problems. Moreover, professionals and experts from other industry sectors also benefit from the general management skills gained from the EMBA experience, and add to the diversity of today’s EMBA classrooms, enriching the cohort experience.
