Hi,

Wondering if anyone has any feedback on the St. Gallen & ETH EmbaX programme. It just started this year and I am considering to apply. I am also considering IE's Global EMBA and Columbia's Executive Masters in Technology Management.

I am from an IT Software background who is looking into strengthening my leadership skills. Currently based in Singapore but considering to relocate in Europe or N. America. I am leaning towards a Management programme that focuses on Technology/Digital Transformation/Innovation. I have zero German or French language skills, willing to learn but I do know that it would take years to have fluency. My Goal is to primarily learn, have international perspective/exposure, establish connections and have increase international mobility, not necessarily migrate to the country where I attend school.

I think we need a generic thread on this site about why you need to outline specific career goals before selecting options.

In terms of reputation IMD and Columbia are much more prestigious :)

Hi Duncan,

I am looking for a university that could help me:
1. Attain a bigger technology leadership role

3. Gain diverse contacts for future engagement/business partnership

My preference would be a school with:
1. Good reputation and is internationally recognized
2. High # of International Students & Faculty
3. Course content that is technology focused
4. Alumni network not too concentrated in a particular region

Any advice would be much appreciated!
