A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE
One of the roles of business schools throughout the world is to provide their surrounding economy with managers who know how to add value to their company’s projects. To do so, business schools need to listen to and even anticipate the needs of businesses and translate them into skills and competencies taught in their revolving program.
Over the last two decades, the exponential growth of globalization has brought about the need to produce and sell in networks, think in multicultural terms, be global and act local and set up international projects. This new economic setting makes fundamental management skills more crucial. A proficient command of management skills, an ability to work with partners from new horizons and an understanding of the cultural aspects of markets are assets when it comes to winning contracts, delivering products and services and setting up research and development projects.
With their expertise in teaching and research, their decades of experience in business teaching, HEC Liège Executive Education, Management School of the University Liège is well equipped to deliver an EMBA centered on the needs of businesses, whether local or international, large or small, and within European or on a worldwide scope.
