The ranking considers IE’s Executive MBA as one of the best in the world based on criteria that include graduates’ subsequent professional development, fulfilment of participants’ expectations and the international experience offered by the program. The result further consolidates IE’s position as a leading international business school for senior management training programs.

Espero que um "toque" técnico no texto, para além de chamar a atenção,
vos recorde dos bons momentos do MBA e incentive a vossa presença...

The initiative forms part of the Global Consulting Practicum (GCP), an international consulting project run by Wharton School for the last 30 years. Wharton School run the GCP in collaboration with schools from China, India, Israel, Chile, Peru and, since 2007, Spain, after signing an agreement with IE Business School, the only European Business School to participate in the initiative.

The IE Business School-Wharton School project team comprises a mix of 11 students from the two schools. Participating students from the IE Business School International MBA Program were Carlos Raventós (Spain), Marco Guarda (Belgium), Rafael Angélico (Venezuela), Tom Schapira (US) and Andrew Reader (UK). All worked for 6 months alongside Wharton students and the directors of 5 companies that are members of the CIM -Centro de Innovación en Movilidad (Innovation and Mobility Center), co-financed by Microsoft and the Castilla y León to provide assessment for their entry into the US market, their search for funding for international expansion plans, and their search for synergies.

In the course of the project students interviewed the senior directors of participating firms to gather relevant information, and have worked with professors from IE and Wharton. Thus students put into practice their consulting, marketing and entrepreneurial skills, and the knowledge of strategy, internationalization and technological development acquired during the MBA programs. Finally, students presented their proposals to the senior management teams of the participating firms at a workshop on US Mobility Trends held at the Wharton School campus in San Francisco (US), and attended by the Dean of Wharton School, Thomas Robertson, and executives from companies that included Google, Salesforce.com, Benchmark Capital, Accel Partners and Clairmail. All participating companies visited technological firms in Silicon Valley to meet management teams and explore potential areas of collaboration.

The ACCESS MBA Tour will be in Portugal for the third consecutive year with top ranking MBA programs.

“March 2008, and here I am in Madrid studying at a top business school. After five months of blood, sweat and fiestas there are plenty of things to write about, but I may as well start by explaining how I came to land in the capital of Spain, full of motivation, and a fair amount of trepidation if I’m honest. At the time I felt a bit like a football player poised to strike a decisive penalty kick in a world cup final, although right now I feel like a marathon runner who still has half way to go.

I’m originally from France, where I lived most of my life in a town on the French-Swiss border near Geneva. Much as I loved living in France, I felt the need to broaden my horizons both professionally and personally speaking, so on completion of my degree in mechanical engineering studies I headed to Sweden to specialize in solar energy engineering in a place that makes up for what it lacks in sunlight with boundless imagination and knowledge! This decision wasn’t just a case of realizing how important all the energy issues could be in the near future, but also of wanting to gain a better overview of technologies and their implications. Hence I did my MSc. in Sustainable Energy Engineering at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH/RIT) in Stockholm. I then had just enough time for one last fling with “solar” energy in the form of a masters thesis at the Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne (EPFL), before ending up in Brussels working for a leading European technology consulting group.

To give you a brief idea of my professional background, my work over the past years has consisted of creating, developing and structuring an energy team. The team, which was dedicated to providing innovative solutions and services in the fields of energy efficiency, sustainable energy production and on-site continuous energy management strategies, rapidly grew from two to eight consultants, and that’s when I found myself wanting a deeper knowledge of management.

Meanwhile, explicit signs of a booming market have led me to believe that I am going to see a growing demand among my clients for expertise in the field of energy. At the same time, there is a distinct lack of qualified people and experienced managers in this sector.

Hence the decision to take an MBA program. I needed to learn, understand and assimilate the best management skills available, and I needed to do it in the near future or the opportunity would pass me by, and I knew I would regret it for the rest of my life.

Personally, I strongly believe that the added value of an MBA program is particularly noticeable if it is from an outstanding school of management. Hence I did the same as most of you, I looked at the FT rankings and compared fees, minimum GMAT scores, deadlines for submissions, etc But by far the most useful thing I did was to meet alumni from these schools. It really helped me to understand the areas in which one or another school was better. We all have different reasons for applying to one school in particular and that is why it is very important to understand what you expect and how a certain school can meet your needs.

IE Business School has a reputation for being the world’s best school for entrepreneurship and the most international in terms of number of nationalities on campus. That was exactly what I was looking for. One of my bosses had done his MBA there a few years ago and he confirmed this for me. He also advised me specifically to contact the Centre for Eco-Intelligent Management at IE, because they offer the kind of courses I was seeking. Moreover, my partner is Spanish and improving my Spanish was one of my priorities.

So all in all my first choice of school was a given. I think that’s what it boils down to, making the right decision for YOU. And if the first few weeks are anything to go by, it would appear that I have got it right!”
