The Executive MBA provided me with management capabilities and skills I didn't have. When job opportunities arose, I was prepared and could seize them successfully.
This program enriched my professional experience, contributing significantly to my development as a leader in many aspects, particularly in networking, negotiation, power, influence, as well as in developing a more strategic and global view of business. It boasts high-quality faculty and a very practical approach based on case resolution and analysis of benchmark companies.
El Executive MBA me ha hecho crecer en lo profesional y personal aportándome una visión global de la empresa y las últimas tendencias a nivel directivo, mejorando en la toma de decisiones estratégicas y consolidando soft skills fundamentales para una dirección de equipos óptima y motivadora
It gave me the perspective to tackle day-to-day problems within the organisation from the HR department, while also reinforcing my professional strengths.
An enriching experience. I shared experiences with professionals from very different fields who supported me in my work and with whom I still have a relationship. It was a good opportunity to expand my network.
El Executive me aportó una visión global del mundo empresarial mucho más allá de mi visión técnica y del sector en el que trabajaba. La interacción con compañeros con realidades profesionales muy distintas me ayudó, y me sigue ayudando, a ver la empresa desde otros puntos de vista diferentes al mío.
El Executive MBA supuso un punto de inflexión en mi carrera profesional. Aportó una visión general que me permitió evolucionar de las funciones técnicas relacionadas con mi área de formación a las funciones de dirección general. Asimismo, durante el programa pude compartir muy buenos momentos con los compañeros y generar una relación de amistad que aún se mantiene después de veinticinco años.
