What they say about EMMIO

The students’ network, professional advice from faculty, coaches and staff, along with SDA Bocconi’s brand paved the path to my transition from the private sector. I couldn’t be more excited!

Jess Martin
EMMIO 2021

As an Education development professional with UNICEF growing into leadership and management positions, I needed a course that would give me notions on programme management in particular managing people and making sure that teams are focused on achieving results. EMMIO equipped me with a toolbox on how to leverage the peoples skills to achieve development results in broader ways. Being able to anticipate risks and designing risk mitigation measures and internal controls is another skill I learnt that is helping me in my career, not to forget the whole aspect of innovation especially how to use innovation as a strategy to achieve organizational effectiveness.
