Truly global, distinctly personal.
Il Rotman-SDA Bocconi Global Executive MBA (Master in Business Administration) è un programma modulare di general management, in inglese, della durata di 18 mesi, rivolto a professionisti e manager esperti che desiderano integrare le esperienze già acquisite sul campo con le conoscenze e gli strumenti necessari per affermarsi sul piano internazionale e progredire nel proprio percorso professionale.
I contenuti del Rotman-SDA Bocconi GEMBA sono studiati per soddisfare le esigenze di professionisti destinati a operare in contesti internazionali e a confrontarsi con realtà anche molto diverse fra loro.
Per garantire questa dimensione internazionale, il Rotman-SDA Bocconi GEMBA prevede la frequenza di alcuni moduli presso partner internazionali in Asia, Europa e America, al fine di stimolare il confronto e promuovere opportunità di networking. Inoltre, una faculty impegnata, oltre che in aula, sul piano professionale e della ricerca fa sì che i contenuti del corso siano sempre di grande attualità e bilancino teoria e pratica attraverso case study, progetti di gruppo e simulazioni.
In un mondo sempre più globalizzato, è indispensabile che chi occupa posizioni di responsabilità sappia operare e pensare in un’ottica globale pur mantenendo una sensibilità locale. Questo programma ha rilevanza trasversale per diversi ambiti professionali e prepara i partecipanti a raccogliere le sfide di un ruolo manageriale sul piano internazionale.
La struttura fluida del corso permette di coniugare l’attività e la crescita professionale con una formazione manageriale d'eccellenza, dando ai partecipanti l’opportunità di mettere in pratica da subito quanto appreso in aula.
Per le aziende che finanziano il corso per i propri executive, questo si traduce in un beneficio immediato per l’organizzazione e un tempestivo ritorno sull’investimento.
Imprese e organizzazioni hanno infine la possibilità di collaborare con la Scuola per sostenere le numerose iniziative che fanno parte a tutti gli effetti del Curriculum GEMBA.

Why did you choose to undertake the Rotman-SDA Bocconi GEMBA?
I chose Rotman-SDA Bocconi GEMBA for a strong motivation for personal and professional growth, without neglecting internationality as a driver.

How is this choice satisfying your needs?
It is a path that fits perfectly with my needs, I work in my family's company and a Full Time MBA would have been unthinkable. In this way, every two months I can devote a week to the MBA, and I can also combine business trips to the same destinations. Training + business.
What is your most important takeaway in attending international modules across the world?
This path has led me to get out of mental patterns, it has led me to a greater mind openness, it has led me to greater resistance and every time I return from a module I return to my company with a lot of positive energy and motivation.
