International Course Experience
ESCP Europe: One of the few business
schools worldwide to have attained the
triple accreditation
ESCP Europe Business School was established in 1819 as the
World’s First Business School. It was an innovation in education,
creating the means for managers to gain the skills and knowledge
to lead the organisations of the future. Since then, generations of
leaders have been educated at ESCP Europe, many heading up the
world’s leading companies, and others setting up new ventures as
successful entrepreneurs.
Through its history, our school continued to retain its innovative
spirit, the benefits of which we see today. ESCP Europe was the
first to offer multi-country, cross-border business degrees some 40
years ago, and now does so across its five urban campuses in Paris,
London, Berlin, Madrid and Torino, together with more than one
hundred global academic partnerships. The School is one of only a
few in the world to be triple-crown accredited (EQUIS, AMBA, AACSB).
Our Executive MBA takes full advantage of our unparalleled
international reach and faculty, many of whom have had extensive
industry experience. Together we have designed a cuttingedge programme combining general management courses with
specialised electives and a range of international seminars.
We give managers the opportunity to engage fully with the fastchanging and growing business environment, giving real insights into
international business and the challenges it faces from managing
diverse workforces, to economic shifts and regulations, both within
and beyond Europe.
In addition, we help our students to learn about themselves, and
to discover as-yet-untapped skills and personal resources that will
transform them and take their careers to the next level.

On joining our Executive MBA, participants become a part of our
international community: 40,000 Alumni from 200 nationalities in

The ESCP Europe Executive MBA is an exceptional experience that will change your
life and way of thinking. It is an intense intellectual and emotional journey, providing
a perfect combination of hard- and soft-skill courses. Its international dimension
goes beyond its European identity, addressing as it does emerging markets and the
US. Besides professional and personal development opportunities, you will have the
chance to meet many exceptional people that will stand by your side throughout the
programme’s challenges.
When I began my Executive MBA in 2010, I was a sales support engineer based in
Laupheim, Germany. Directly after finishing the programme I started in my new position
as head of quality and infrastructure in Jinzhou, China. The international exposure I
received during the programme, including the intercultural team projects we carried
out, is helping me tremendously in my work today.
After graduating, I set up a consultancy company in Dubai that provides assistance to
foreign companies looking to develop their business activities in the Middle East. Quite a
jump from my former career in banking, and one I would not have achieved without my
Executive MBA! I don’t regret committing to 18 months of study that gave me both the
knowledge and the confidence to launch myself as an entrepreneur and realise my
dreams!

My goal for the Executive MBA was to experience the globalised world from a European
standpoint. The five campuses gave me the opportunity to travel and experience five
different worlds within Europe alongside a mix of international students. The flexibility
of the course structure accommodated our diverse schedules and geographical bases: I
was able to travel from India to attend the classes every six weeks.
If you want a world-class Executive MBA in an international environment while keeping
your job, a programme that combines academic theory with the real world application,
and to improve your leadership and strategy skills, then the ESCP Europe Executive
MBA is the right choice and right place to be.

Let’s be practical: which Executive MBA in the world has regular courses in five
different countries? Which MBA gives you the real opportunity to network with so many
nationalities? I know of just one: the ESCP Europe Executive MBA. It will offer you an
unforgettable experience travelling around Europe, meeting up with Germans, British,
French, Italians, Spanish, Chinese…
Coming from a legal counsel background, I had an exceptional experience studying
for the Executive MBA. The financial and strategy takeaways were particularly strong.
My company was very supportive of taking my career to a global level, and the
Executive MBA’s international seminars were a great help in better understanding
the many ways of doing business.
After working as an R&D engineer for 15 years, I wanted to increase my business
exposure, particularly in the area of sales and business development.
My classmates had positions similar to the one I wanted and came from different industry
sectors. The Executive MBA was the door-opener that allowed me to make my career
change.
The ESCP Europe Executive MBA is a great opportunity to understand how
corporations work and how you can best contribute to them. It also helps you to
challenge your assumptions, to meet with people from other business fields and
other countries, and to interact with them and improve your skills. The programme
is above all a great human experience, allowing you to learn not only about others but
also yourself. It is something you should not miss.
When joining the Executive MBA class, I had been working as an internal auditor
for five years. I wanted to improve my career path and gain a better understanding
of business and managerial skills. In the middle of the programme, a headhunter
called me about a new position for the Spanish subsidiary of a German company.
When she found out I was taking the ESCP Europe Executive MBA, the offer
suddenly changed to Compliance Senior Manager. The international exposure and
managerial toolkit I gained during the programme were key success factors in
getting this new position.

I started as a General Management Programme participant and followed 9 Core Courses that helped
me appreciate the cross-functional aspects of my new job. My company was so thrilled with the
experience that they encouraged me to go on with the Executive MBA programme. The 30-month length of
the programme was convenient for my busy schedule, and split the cost over the period. I can now benefit
from a larger network including two intakes: GMP 2013 and MBA 2015 classes.

The International Strategy and Structure elective’s academic framework took the class way beyond the core
strategy courses, and at the same time maximised the Executive dimension of the Executive MBA. Through
its interactive structure, it leveraged our professional experience for the study of case studies, such as joint
ventures in China, outsourcing in Eastern Europe, and minority shareholders in the retail industry, amongst
others. Not only did we explore ten strategy development frameworks throughout the elective,
but also the challenges and opportunities they offered from an inside perspective.

integrating the skills and knowledge
acquired during the programme through
case studies and testimonials focused on

and leadership styles.
Getting genuine insights from the diversity in the Brazilian culture in São Paulo and Rio de
Janeiro was a real privilege. Speakers and professors from outstanding academic partners
gave me a true understanding of the current business practices in the region. From a personal
standpoint, it combined concerns around my core business and my passions: supply chain
challenges in an emerging country with infrastructure growth opportunities, and sports management
with the 2014 FIFA Football World Cup and the 2016 Rio Summer Olympic Games.
I was absolutely thrilled.

Designed to provide participants with a collaborative, multi-disciplinary and often intercultural work
experience on a real-life strategic challenge, the International Consulting Project (ICP) puts into practice the
concepts and theory acquired during the Executive MBA.
A few ideas for
your International Consulting Project
In groups, participants are expected to perform an in-depth analysis of a situation or an issue faced by a
company and to make recommendations for actions that can realistically be implemented by the firm.
> Analysis
As soon as I started the Executive MBA, I began putting into practice the programme’s business
and managerial insights and seeing tangible results in my work. This was the advantage of doing an
Executive MBA: we could apply the learning on a daily basis within the workplace.
I worked on the business plan for the Women’s Worldwide Web within the frame of the International
Consulting Project. The ICP was an ideal opportunity to work on setting up this online philanthropy platform
dedicated to women’s empowerment through microfinance, education, mentoring and networking.
In 2014, I was nominated for the ‘Women in ICT Role Model’ prize by the Digital Agenda of the European Commission.
The prize is part of their ‘Every Girl Digital’ campaign which aims to promote female participation in ICT.
My career has taken a quantum leap thanks to the ESCP Europe Executive MBA. It enabled me to develop a
refined toolbox of both hard and soft skills, as well as self-confidence and a sense of the possibilities of
management and leadership to embrace this ambitious social venture.

that works for women
By bringing women upwards where education, debate and

in the business world and sit at the head of the table, the ESCP
Europe Executive MBA is a valuable tool for gender balance in the
workplace.
EDUCATION
• Enabling women to get an executive degree with a dedicated
scholarship for women who demonstrate leadership potential.
• Coaching sessions and gender diversity courses to raise
awareness collectively and individually.
DEBATE
The learning curve continues with dialogue and connections
within a community of like-minded women who aspire to lead.
The Executive MBA Women’s Network provides a space where
women share creative ways for life-balance and discover their
assets in leadership.

The ESCP Europe Executive MBA enabled me to develop
my entrepreneurial project with the help of my female
and male peers. The programme is an amazing tool box
to better understand how to manage a company as a female
leader, but is also a talent catalyst. It encouraged me to create
a communication agency specialised in events material production called SOUN in 2012; and in March 2014, FEMMES PHARMA,
the 1st French pharmaceutical network for women offering
female executives the tools to create new models of leadership,
while implicating their male peers.
