“Doing an EMBA is an all-round generalist training to enable students to become better general managers. This enables managers to approach issues from multiple perspectives such as from accounting, finance, marketing, human resources and strategy points of view. Consequently, students learn to put on many ‘hats’ when diagnosing problems and proposing solutions. All-in-all, doing an EMBA provides a platform for becoming a more effective leader. An EMBA is and will continue to be an invaluable qualification to highlight on a person’s CV and LinkedIn profile,” says Dr Gary Stockport.

Dr Stockport, in an article for The Pioneer newspaper, further discusses how an EMBA can help accelerate your career. “The goal of doing an EMBA is to help both career acceleration and career adaption. This includes the ability to speed up a manager’s career trajectory as well as seize transforming career opportunities as they come along.”

He also highlights the top 10 benefits of pursuing an EMBA in an article for Higher Education Review, a platform for students, colleges and industry to interconnect. These include:

  • Transitioning to a Generalist
  • Becoming a Leader
  • Study Whilst Working
