Our students and alumni share their experiences
“When I started searching for an EMBA program I had a clear priority: it should be at a leading business school with a culture that aligns well with my values. At Kellogg-WHU those conditions are fulfilled completely. I am privileged to be part of not only one, but two global reputable educational institutions where I have the chance to learn and advance professionally but also personally, as much as from my fellow students as from my professors. And, equally important, to be guided by their distinctive leadership principle, Low Ego High impact! Having just finished the first module I can only confirm this spirit is alive and… kicking! The transformational leadership journey has just started..."
“The option to have 1:1 coaching via Skype is incredibly helpful; my coach gave me an excellent opportunity to develop and not only learn the ‘hard facts’, but also take my soft skills to the next level! The professionalism and capabilities of the coaches were more than impressive and were an excellent fit for me...now it's down to me to continue the journey.”
“In recognition of my hard work as General Manager for Burger King Asia, I am now CEO for Popeyes as they launch the brand in China. I am truly excited about this new position and am thrilled to see a significant increase of my earnings. I am thankful to be a part of the Kellogg-WHU EMBA network and continue to be impressed that such career progression was possible even before completing the program.”
