«I chose the MBA Change & Innovation because of its diversity, this was the key differentiator for me. The MBA experience was a total personal change, a strong asset in my life. Not only it impacted my leadership style, I am also at ease with distance management and multi-cultural teams. I even created a specific and personal methodology to position a brand and to develop adequate brand strategies that I am still using for companies.

Here are companies that have worked with the IAE Aix in both careers and projects:

«Recruiting an MBA participant means hiring a ‘all inclusive’ executive, not only grounded in his/her technical skills, but above all with a top level leadership capability. What is unique with people coming from the MBA Change & Innovation is their holistic view. In a world of specialization, it is crucial to have multiple perspectives, different references, i.e. a global approach. The IAE Aix brings this openness to the MBAs they train, and the real business plan and consulting project give them concrete and real life experience. Recruiting those executives is the assurance of getting adaptable and comprehensive people at both strategic and operational levels.»
