What they say about EMMIO
"EMMIO truly captures the challenges of managing international institutions. It sheds light on contemporary management techniques and innovative approaches that are shaping the public and private sectors. It is a well-rounded and complete program that empowers professionals in a remarkable way and leaves participants enlightened by strategic management tools and paradigms. I recommend EMMIO to any highly-dedicated seeking to learn, grow and gain knowledge on the “art of management”.

EMMIO 2016
Working in the diplomatic service with the private sector on competitiveness and sustainability requires keeping your management of international organization skills not only up to date but focused on continuous learning for improvement. EMMIO provided that upgrade in my skill base for managing diverse teams, driving innovation and ensuring “A” team accountability and results based management. It unlocked leadership skills that were fit for purpose, with appropriate risk controls. The negotiation and project management modules awakened my listening and strategy skills to build new team management frameworks for winning impacts. The digital and cybersecurity module challenged my thinking on information management and accountability to build sustainable programs. The budget and financial management module, although challenging, shaped my thinking for developing ROI project activities. EMMIO empowers leaders to move from challenges to opportunities working with a community of cohorts committed to knowledge transfer that drives innovation. Thanks to EMMIO I shared these new skills with regional EU teams and foster more “what if, and why not” strategies. EMMIO led to the launching of a sustainable diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy in my agency and advanced this initiative in the private sector.
