Hi all,
I have received offers from IMD for a full-time MBA and HEC Paris for an Executive MBA. I would appreciate any help in making this difficult choice.
Post-MBA Goal:
Function: General management
Geography: Africa (all regions)
Industry: Energy/Manufacturing
Background:
I have over 8 years of experience in the oil and gas downstream sector. I am 30+ years old and come from the West Africa region.
Here are the pros and cons as I see them:
IMD:
Pros: High-quality training, potential opportunity to work in Europe before returning to Africa.
Cons: Limited or no brand recognition in Africa, except for Kenya.
HEC:
Pros: Well-known brand in Africa.
Cons: Very limited opportunities to work in Europe
*Please @Duncan, I will also need your valuable feedback.
