Global Executive MBA

Objective: develop a strategic and societal vision for creating value

The Global Executive MBA at NEOMA offers Level-7 RNCP certification: “Executive Manager”.

This certification is intended for executives or experienced middle managers who want to access or enhance their executive manager, company director or managing director position in an existing company or plan on creating their own.

Executive managers create and implement strategic company guidelines and guarantee the financial conditions to ensure the guidelines are successful. They mobilise teams to drive change and incorporate intercultural diversity and social impact awareness into the company’s actions.

Examples of job titles: member of executive committee, entrepreneur, SME manager, subsidiary/division/unit/department manager, profit centre manager, function manager, operational unit manager, project manager, general secretary, external or internal consultant (often titled project manager), etc.

Skill fields: executive posture in an age of disruptions

NEOMA Business School created a curriculum that covers four skill fields:

• Creation and implementation of a company, business unit or function-based strategy.
• Development and management of financial decisions for supporting the organisation’s overall strategy.
• Identification and distribution of development opportunities for an innovative activity, product or service.
• Leadership of a company, business unit or function and management of employees and teams.

NEOMA offer the possibility of selecting only one skill field out of the 4 skill fields to develop an expertise and obtain certification.

A curriculum focused on Personal Development and Leadership

Personal Development is a key element of the programme. The participants receive individual and collective support:

• A MBTI evaluation
• A module on Resilient Leadership, dedicated to strengthening the interpersonal leadership of each participant
• Personalised coaching

Capitalising on the synergies of two regions with major economic heritages

Regional anchoring is a central component of NEOMA BS: in the Global EMBA, it is embodied in the seminars devoted to the Champagne-Ardenne and Normandy regions, allowing participants to discover promising sectors of activity (company tours, case studies, etc.).

For example, participants meet with decision makers from the luxury sector (prestigious champagne houses) to discuss circular economics or discover the most successful entrepreneurial stories in Normandy (Ferrero, etc.).

Joining a powerful, supportive network

The alumni network of NEOMA Business School includes 68,700 graduates in France ans 127 countries. NEOMA Alumni is the 4^th largest alumni network among French Business Schools.

Evaluation procedures

The programme is recognised through a dual validation:

• Ongoing assessment: evaluations conducted throughout the length of the programme in the form of individual or collective reports to be submitted
• Capstone Project: submission of a written document and an oral defense before a jury made up of 2 tutors

At the end of the programme and after a validation of 90 ECTS credits, the level-7 Senior Executive title is awarded to participants. If some modules were not validated and thus no credits were earned, the programme participant can redo the evaluation during a period set up for this purpose.

Middle East and Asia Tracks

The NEOMA Global Executive MBA programme is also available in Asia and the Middle East: in China, in the city of Shanghai, an international financial centre and in Tehran, Iran, renowned for its culture and excellent higher education.

We offer these tracks to executive and middle managers and to local entrepreneurs who want to develop executive manager skills.

Just like the programme in Paris, the GEMBA tracks taught in China and Iran aim to provide participants with strategic vision for executive leadership in a digital age faced with new societal issues.

Moreover, meetings with executives as well as visits to renowned companies are organised so the participants can have an in-depth look at the special features of the local ecosystems.

Those participating in the China and Iran tracks can attend modules in the France track and thus meet the participants in the Paris programme.
