Executive MBA - pro and contra Print E-mail

Why is this program the  most preferrable to people who have already taken place in business? Well, first, not many Chief Executives from among those who can afford themselves training at leading western schools, will agree to leave for a long time the business and to go to study in other country for a year or even more. And secondly, the standard program of ÌÂÀ education  does not satisfy the requirements of Top-managers. And it is not surprising, after all to the people having enormous experience in administrative sphere, it is completely not interesting to be trained in those elementary things which are taught to yesterday's students, or the young managers not having yet very big experience in administrative activity.

Thus, ÅÌÂÀ fully corresponds to inquiries of chief executives of such level. MBA can be received in Russia also as Russian Universities are the partners of leading western business schools.

For example, partners of Institute of Business and Business Administration of Academy of national economy at the Government of the Russian Federation  are the Harward business school and Antverpen University.
You may ask, but what is the reason for the successful businessman or the manager, especially Top-manager again to take seat for a student's bench?

The answer is simple enough. Many chiefs alreadyunderstand necessity of continuous increase of own level of knowledge. Program EMBA gives the chance to managers of an average link to make career jump to an armchair vice-president or even the president of the company. And for the higher echelon, so-called Top- managers, ÅÌÂÀ is a unique possibility to rise to level of strategic decisions in management of the company, carelessly on certain specialisation.

If more in detail to stop on a classical image of listener ÅÌÂÀ we will see a portrait of the successful man of 40 (or about that) years, the owner of small or average business, or, on the contrary, before us the head of an average or the top echelon will appear.

Now, specially for businessmen, schools are ready to offer the modular form of training. For the chiefs who do not have possibilities to be out from working, and entirely to devote itself to training, an evening school is created. Concessions become also to public people - to stars of show business and leading sportsmen of the country.

School business explain growing interest to program ÅÌÂÀ to that on classes which are held  in «live dialogue» managers and businessmen can not only receive abstract knowledge of management, but also discuss sore problems of the business, and also to find by means of teachers and other listeners the optimum decision for the head.

Those who wishing to study under program ÅÌÂÀ should be ready to go through enough competitive selection. It is caused by the reason that if a groupwould have at least one lagging behind it can essentially affect quality of preparation of group as a whole. Many schools look at the general operational experience in administrative activity. For example, Alexander Gones, the head of program Executive ÌÂÀ at school "Mirbis" in the interview given by him for one of media editions, tells, that the listener having experience of the decision cross-country-functional of problems, that is the skilled manager is preferable to them who would have at least a group of divisions. Also at school "Mirbis" interview with the future "student" is necessarily held, allowing to reveal, whether there corresponds its administrative potential to requirements which are shown by school.

At Institute of Business and Business Administration, it is required, that the administrative experience of the listener of program EMBA was not less than five years.

At some schools you need to fill in addition the special questionnaire which will allow a selection committee to judge your psychological qualities more fully.

If you mismatch requirements which show leading Russian business schools, do not be not upset, probably, you should pass at first usual program MBA.

In general now the majority of domestic business schools aspires to catch requirements of entrants ÅÌÂA sensitively. Specially the new programs are developed for them, capable to satisfy to the highest inquiries. To listeners it is given the chance to choose courses which they wish to hear and make the individual plan of training.

Than essentially,does  Executive MBA program differs from standard training? Though a set of disciplines same, as well as in program MBA, but all lectures and a practical training are spent taking into account deeper level of knowledge of listener EMBA. Yes, you again will take the courses of  the corporate finance, the general management and accounting. Yes, as well as in standard program MBA a lot of time will be given to classes which set as the purpose to show and as much as possible to develop yours leadership qualities. But  Executive MBA program differs absolutely in other teaching of a material, there will be no exchange on small details, and explanations of the nuances well familiar to each skilled chief. EMBA program means training at strategic level. And the main thing, you can look at familiar difficulties under perfect other corner and to have an opportunity really to apply decisions of these problems in sphere of your business. As with a view of satisfaction of interests of heads of the large companies many business schools add in the plan of training the subjects, concerning such areas as: globalisation and cross-country-cultural interaction. The big attention is traditionally given to necessary ability of the manager to work in a team. For listeners EMBA lectures which are read by the business gurus recognised in the West specially invited by school became already habitual.

Now the majority of chiefs (already about 39 %), wishing to raise the qualification and professional skills, choosing between the second higher education, trainings and programs MBA choose program Executive MBA.
