Message from the Director

Silvia Bagdadli EMSHRM: how to address the strategic challenges of managing people in complex organizational settings.

Let me first thank you for the interest you have shown in the Executive Master in Strategic Human Resource Management (EMSHRM) and sketch the salient aspects of the Master Program.
EMSHRM distinguishes itself for its emphasis on strategic and international aspects of Human Resource Management, focusing on the role of HR executives in supporting the process of generating and executing corporate strategies. We aim at developing a professional profile with thorough business knowledge (strategy, finance, managerial skills), coupled with the ability to direct people's actions and behaviors towards the pursuit of competitive advantage.

EMSHRM relies on an Advisory Board which includes HR professionals from leading international organizations, ensuring that the course is aligned with the needs of the business community.

EMSHRM results from the collaboration of two leading Institutions, SDA Bocconi School of Management and Cornell University.

EMSHRM is targeted at high potential HR managers and professionals willing to make a significant advancement in their career, on a trajectory for HR leadership positions.

EMSHRM is designed for those organizations that believe in the strategic role of human resources and want to sponsor their talents through an ongoing process of acquisitions of new competences and improvement of existing ones. The learning process is enhanced by the development of individual assignments within participants’ organizations.

EMSHRM is a ten-month program with participants meeting eight times a year for 3-6 days sessions, covering advanced modules taught by internationally renowned HR faculty and executives. The learning experience will be supplemented by individual projects that require participants to apply key HR issues to their particular organizational setting and problems.

Our Executive Master is designed to equip you for a successful career in HR Management. We also aim at stimulating you intellectually via ongoing challenges.
My goal is to ensure that the Master experience will stay with you as one of the most valuable experience in your professional life.

Please feel free to contact me directly for further information or any queries you may have.

I look forward to seeing you here in Milan.
Best regards.
