Global Executive MBA

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.

Capstone Project

The capstone project is the cornerstone of the Global Executive MBA programme. It accommodates various types of real project developments: existing business, not-for-profit, new ideas. The project aims to provide the participants to put together their expertise and working experiences along with the knowledge and competencies gained throughout the programme, to shape the project’s strategy and its development stages.

Social Project

The social project promotes ideas that tackle social problems to develop purpose-making technology-based solutions that are economically sustainable.

Industry immersions

Participants will gain insights on how firms in specific industries are strategically dealing with the challenges raised by climate change and spikes in energy prices. The seminars mix company visits, lectures from experts and discussion with top management.

Two international seminars to offer a global outlook

The Global Executive MBA includes two one-week modules held abroad called International Learning Experiences (ILE). Each ILE offers immersion based on the following subjects:

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.).

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.
