I’ve been contemplating an MBA for years and at the start of 2022, I finally made up my mind to apply for a program. I had two important factors in mind: I wanted to keep working and pursue a part-time program, and I was also looking for an international learning experience outside of Hungary, my home country. This meant looking at schools easily accessible from Budapest.

The empowering message of music & role models: How they inspired me to study for Executive MBA

Tina Van Hoecke

Music is a universal language that has the power to inspire, empower and bring people together. As a young girl and teenager, I remember listening to songs by powerful female singers. Music has given these female singers a voice; it empowered them to seize any chance, face any hurdle and become the best versions of themselves, making them role models for many of us.

Healthcare is evolving at lightning speed, and the pandemic has, in many ways, changed the landscape of healthcare globally beyond recognition. Arguably, it is often for the better but has undoubtedly exposed the weaknesses of different healthcare systems, whether public or private.

How to achieve work-life balance while studying for your EMBA

Erekle Tolordava

As expected, one needs to invest time in Executive MBA education and should not assume a few hours a week is enough. An EMBA is more than just a degree – it's a lifetime opportunity to keep learning, meet like-minded individuals and keep your mind young. The question is, how does one perceive the time invested in it?

Ever present in the existential choices of adult life, ambiguity is certainly not new in fast-paced business environments. If the process of removing it has always been partial, as the world abandons the era of converging globalisation and becomes more geopolitical, removing ambiguity can feel more illusional than ever before.
