Based on your career goals in Saudi Arabia, considering the schools' presence and brand recognition in the region, here's my analysis:

ESADE offers strong advantages for your goals:
- Established reputation in Saudi Arabia
- Solid career outcomes in the region
- More face-to-face networking through monthly campus visits
- Strong general management focus
- Regular in-person interactions build deeper connections with peers

IE provides similar benefits but with less in-person interaction:
- Strong brand recognition in Saudi Arabia
- Three campus visits limit networking depth
- Good general management curriculum
- Online format may impact relationship-building

Alliance Manchester via Dubai campus:
- Very well-known in Saudi Arabia
- Dubai location enables regional networking
- Quarterly visits balance flexibility and connection
- Local presence through Dubai campus

Imperial:
- Excellent global brand but less established in Saudi
- Limited campus visits (2)
- May require more effort to leverage for regional growth

Given your focus on career advancement in Saudi Arabia, I recommend ESADE or Alliance Manchester. ESADE's monthly format would build stronger networks, while Alliance Manchester's Dubai campus provides valuable regional connections. Both schools' strong regional presence would support your executive-level aspirations.

The online options from IE and Imperial, while flexible, may not provide the same depth of relationship-building that typically aids executive advancement in Saudi business culture.

I am highly skeptical of online MBA's. I tend to think they have little or no value. An MBA should not be done fully online at least this is my opinion (ok to combine it with work and not lose income) but an MBA is a full experience and I can't believe it can be done part-time (and even less fully online)... Plus, I believe schools that have this, use it as a way to get a lot of money from this...

The outcomes shown by the FT online MBA ranking show that they work for some people.
