My personal experience of the Executive MBA

Nina Duft

I have a demanding job and often work long hours so I was unsure if lecture times, preparation and assignments could be integrated without risking performance at work. I have been lucky to be surrounded by people who encouraged me, and now being somewhat halfway through the program I learned that this can actually be done.

Why I Applied Early for the Executive MBA
Mike Thaler
The early bird is not only around saving money, it's also about taking advantage of the free leadership coachings and access to the free pre-courses in accounting, finance, and quantitative decision-making.
At least once a year I usually go to a place I have never been before in order to experience and learn something new. This summer I decided to go on a digital journey and head back to my Alma Mater, Frankfurt School, for the Lifelong-Learning Module Applied Digital Transformation.

Why I commute to Frankfurt from Ghana for the Executive MBA
Benjamin Russel Frimpong
As firm believer of the notion that “the illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn” by Alvin Toffler. Thus, the pathway to be relevant in the changing competitive environment was to pursue a higher education.
We were full of enthusiasm and eager to learn when arriving at Kedge University, China, ready for the Digital China international module. The day began with a short introduction of ourselves and discussions about what had most impressed us about China so far.

Why I chose an Executive MBA
Arun Wadhawan
After being a Team Lead (Professional Service) for many years I realized that if I want to develop further to a senior management position and become a C-Level manager, I have to acquire business knowledge in order to progress in my career. It is essential to have the right know how and to speak the same language as other C-Level managers.
About 6 month after my graduation with the Executive MBA Class of 2018, I would like to share some thoughts about the questions above, how my journey went and what happens in a life after EMBA graduation. I remember attending several QS MBA Tour fairs before deciding for the EMBA @ Frankfurt School. I have compared Schools in the Netherlands and Stockholm, their programmes, peers and approaches.

Creating New Ventures at the Startup Capital
Karthik Vastare
Even for small projects, getting started and taking them to success is itself a difficult task. So, starting a new venture and making it a success should definitely be daunting, right? We learnt during our Executive MBA course on New Venture Creation at IDC, Herzliya from Dr. Yossi Maaravi that it need not be the case.
What’s this Design Thinking fuss all about? I had heard about design thinking, but like many I didn’t had a clue what the fuss was all about. For me design was applied to furniture, appliance, cars, and yes, sometimes too, to a web interface or a computer program.

How Lifelong Learning at Frankfurt School helps to hone your skills

Martin Krumbein

When knowledge and practicing this knowledge is a cornerstone of your professional career, then lifelong learning is a major success factor for making your career futureproof. This comes even more true, when we bring to mind that due to new technologies and digitization, the life cycle of skills is shorter than ever before (The skills revolution 2017).

Why an MBA makes sense even as you are pushing 50!

Olav Glorvigen

Woah, what a ride it has been! Committing to spending most weekends and numerous evenings for something that is “…strictly not necessary…” for the next 18 months was, for me, a serious commitment although being uncertain as to exactly what it would entail. Graduation is special, and today my 87 years old mom came down from Norway to take part.

Back to School: Lifelong Learning in the Executive MBA
Nadine Greulich
After 18 months of dually working and studying in the EMBA classes, my first thought after handing in my thesis was that I would now take the time to make up on lost spare time, foster my friend- and relationships
Handprints on cave walls, painted shapes on rocks, the slogan “Kilroy* was here” (*name interchangeable) and love padlocks on bridges – humans have always had a tendency to leave their mark.
