Today, this column picks up Executive MBA program. This program focuses on more senior candidate than MBA program. I also graduated Oxford EMBA, and based on the experience, I can say EMBA is very strong experience for finance professional and recommend it.

Following three points are the merit I consider.

1. Strong network beyond industry and background
2. Broaden view exceeds finance and accounting field
3. Diversity and Inclusion

Finance field is quite professional, so network also tend to become the same field. However, EMBA helps to male a network beyond it.

Secondly, finance professional who would like to become “good” CFO, strong finance knowledge and experience are not not enough. The understanding on business and strategy is necessary and in order to achieve it, CFO also needs to know basic knowledge about HR, IT, Retail and Marketing etc. EMBA is the good course to cover these criteria.

Finally, “diversity and inclusion” and this is the key word for many big companies. Therefore, finance professional is required the skill which manages diversity and inclusion. EMBA program has group work and this is as if practice diversified situation.

If you consider EMBA, please use our career consulting service and am able to introduce the appropriate program.
