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.

“At SDA Bocconi we take the GEMBA meaning seriously. It is a “global” executive MBA, designed to equip future leaders to manage global challenges: an indispensable prerequisite to prosper with your organization and reinforce your career development.”
"It is not easy to create truly sustainable value for a business — or for yourself. In this program, we teach you the former and help you achieve the latter, all with a truly global lens."
I had been working in very different positions over the years as well as in cross country and cross cultural business environments when I was encouraged to apply for GEMBA by my employer, Prysmian Group. I have been particularly excited with the international content and context of the program. The program has provided a more extensive understanding of international business environments, complexity and opportunities. I have found the program just the right add on to my existing professional portfolio and toolbox. It is important for me to be able to immediately take to work some of the ideas and methods learned during the sessions. These tools I will need even more, because Prysmian has just promoted me to a new position in a new county.
My expectation for the program was also to get to know professionals from other companies, by networking and learning from others. That expectation has also been fulfilled. My GEMBA class is a diverse and interesting group of people with different ages, genders and backgrounds. Even though following the program is hard work, as a group we do have a lot of fun!
