INSEAD Global Executive MBA
INSEAD is the only school that offers a modular Global Executive MBA programme (GEMBA) in fully integrated campuses across three regions: Europe (France), Asia (Singapore) and the Middle East (Abu Dhabi). The GEMBA offers experienced executives an intensive 14 to 17-month fast-track to the top via one of the world’s most prestigious and multicultural business schools.
Each class has an unparalleled diversity of nationalities and business backgrounds, enabling participants to learn from each other and build a close-knit yet globally distributed network. Another unique feature is the Leadership Development Programme (LDP) which includes a programme-long schedule of group coaching, 360-degree assessments and team activities, designed to develop a leadership style that is authentic to you, thus accelerating your career progress even further.
HIGHLY RANKED AND GLOBALLY RECOGNIZED
Take it from the Financial Times. The INSEAD GEMBA is their highest-ranked, single-school Programme while the Tsinghua – INSEAD EMBA (TIEMBA) is ranked in 1st place.
GLOBAL YET INCREDIBLY CONVENIENT
The GEMBA is one exceptional programme. But there are three ways to start it depending on what works for you: Europe (1–2 week modules), Middle East (1-week modules) or Asia (mostly long weekends).
A UNIQUE FOCUS ON LEADERSHIP
Our Leadership Development Programme is one-of-a-kind. Combining 360-degree assessment, group coaching, team activities and peer work shadowing, it runs throughout the programme, evolving along with your own leadership skills. As a result, your career progress is accelerated.
LEARNING THROUGH DIVERSITY
Most EMBA programmes claim to be diverse. But, unlike other schools, INSEAD has never had a dominant national culture. This has enabled us to turn diversity (over 50 nationalities in the Class of 2016) into a powerful learning tool.
INTENSE AND EFFICIENT
With only 51 to 60 days needed away from work over a period of 14 to 17 months, depending on your choice of starting campus, the GEMBA is one of the most efficient routes to a top business degree. Of course, that makes the experience intense too – which is an added benefit, according to our participants.
