Testimonials

"I have been a competitive athlete for most of my life and even after some injuries forced me to stop, my plans to remain in the sport industry didn’t change. KEDGE ISEM offered me the opportunity to learn from professors that are actual sport industry professional and to combine theoretical and practical learning thanks to the many projects that students are asked to work on throughout the master. Studying in France, and in Marseille specifically, allowed me to experience a unique and multicultural environment. Additionally, Marseille offers a multitude of sport viewing opportunities for someone that is passionate about sport. Currently I’m the Brand Project Manager for AS Monaco in Ligue 1. As part of my role, I work on all those project that involve the club’s brand both from a management side and from a strategic development side."

“The history of the programme shows that our School did not choose to go for a Sport specialisation out of opportunism, but out of conviction. In over 20 years of existence, it attracted many internationally recognised sport industry insiders as guest-lecturers. Concerning the “business management” side of the curriculum, the steady progression of our School in the rankings proves the quality and dedication of our faculty.”

“Since 2001, the Sport Carriere recruitment company that I have founded and I run assists the students of the Sport MSc. The courses given by KEDGE Business School combine academic and professional expertise in a very competitive market and requires differentiating skills. The professional expertise of teachers and speakers who turn out to be key players in both the academic and professional life in the ecosystem of the sport business makes the apprenticeship of sport marketing and management jobs special. The educational choice to train future professionals of sport marketing and management by integrating high level courses in sport law also meets a strong demand in the job market. The value of a diploma is measured by observing the future career of graduates and the reputation of trainers. My job as a recruiter for many French and international sport organizations leads me to work with these people even outside the class rooms and demonstrates the notoriety of an high-profile degree in the French and international scale.”

" I started my career twenty-four years ago with a master in IT. After the University, I quickly found a job in a medical device company, where I had for couple of years some technical roles. Quickly after, I moved into management position. Last June, I decided to leave that company and after couple months of deep reflection, I started to define what I didn't want to do anymore and what I was expecting for my second part of career. I started the Executive MBA program for two reasons. The first one, I wanted to be out of my comfort zone and wanted to strengthen some of my hard and soft skills with the goal, at some point in time, to have a professional experience abroad. The second reason would be, eventually, to start my own company at some point in time. With this MBA programme, I add an opportunity to meet with great teachers and professors but also fantastic people from different and various background in various countries. This was a great experience so far after one year working with them, having fun with them, but also sometimes having difficult moment, because this journey is not like an easy one. If like me, you have a reflection of what your career will look like in the future. Do not hesitate. I strongly recommend you subscribe on an Executive MBA program and you will not be disappointed."

"Four years ago, I decided to pick up my career and started working at Suez. I'm at the procurement department, I operationally manage 100 million euros portfolio of energy expenditure. I am in a team of four people and we manage yearly up to 18 thousand contracts. A year and half ago, I decided to do an Executive MBA. After meeting the team in Paris, KEDGE became the obvious choice. 

The two main reasons I have decided to do the KEDGE Executive MBA is…One, for my personal growth. I've been a year now to the program and I get the chance to improve my soft skills, my communication negotiation and put in leadership into practice. The second reason is to acquire new competencies, that I didn't get the chance to get while I was in an engineering school. For example, finance and also design thinking that I got the chance to do in Portland State University. I also did the digital China in Shanghai. 

I have met very interesting people and very skilled people that helped me improve my soft and hard skills. The whole journey has been a very transformational experience. I've got the chance to meet brilliant mind. If you are hesitating to embark in this new journey, just don't!"
