The Georgetown-ESADE Global Executive MBA program mirrors the complexity of the global business environment by integrating and packaging multi-disciplinary information within modules; incorporating participants’ diversity of experience into classroom discussions; using residencies as opportunities to extend and apply new skills and capabilities; and incorporating international perspectives in every aspect of the program.
COHORT AND LEARNING COMMUNITY
As a GEMBA participant, you will be challenged and stretched by both the faculty and your classmates. We carefully select seasoned, high-potential participants whose diverse careers, skill sets and cultural backgrounds complement your own, and one of the most vibrant features of the GEMBA program is the team approach to learning. You will work collaboratively on coursework and projects and be encouraged to draw upon the skills, knowledge and backgrounds of your teammates. This dynamic interplay of interests and strengths increases the value of the experience exponentially for the whole cohort. You will create friendships and professional relationships that will last a lifetime and you will benefit from an expanded worldview, a broader knowledge base and greater confidence resolving complex organizational challenges across functions.

INNOVATIVE MODULE DESIGN
Each GEMBA module is a "deep immersion" experience that integrates core MBA courses, a specially designed integrative course and a series of networking events and special topics and briefings. All elements of the module are developed to take greatest advantage of the residency location. While core MBA courses ensure that you master fundamental business disciplines and general management skills, the integrative courses combine these disciplines and challenge you to apply your "soft" management skills to live cases, industry simulations and consulting-style projects.
Every GEMBA module also gives you time to extend your personal and professional network and enhance your global perspective. GEMBA networking events will introduce you to local Georgetown and ESADE alumni as well as leading local business executives and government officials. During "Special Topic" and "Academic Briefing" sessions, you will investigate and discuss current business and management challenges with prominent authors, scholars and practitioners, and you will be positioned to succeed in three significant efforts: your Master's project, the LEAD program and the Conference on Globalization.

MASTER'S PROJECT
During the course of the program, all participants work with a faculty supervisor to define, write, and present a master's project. Typically, the master's project will be based on individual research, a business plan or a consulting project. The project is an opportunity for each participant to apply the knowledge they have gained in the classroom to a real-world problem. It is also a chance for each participant to examine a business issue, organization, or industry that will further their career and / or provide immediate value to their organization.

GLOBALIZATION CAPSTONE INTEGRATIVE
The program culminates with the Georgetown-ESADE Globalization Capstone Integrative, jointly delivered by the McDonough School of Business, the Walsh School of Foreign Service and ESADE Business School. The capstone is organized around a series of special topic presentations and roundtable discussions. Participants examine trends and forecasts for different regions around the world. They also examine topics such as national and multinational interventions, regulations, agreements, and international business diplomacy disputes.
