Course summary

Three continents, two years, and one unmissable opportunity — delivered by Nottingham Business School (NBS), and in partnership with South Africa’s Stellenbosch University and Brazil’s Insper Institute of Education and Research, our Global Executive MBA sheds new light on the fragmented landscape of international business. Delivered for and by business experts from around the world, the programme will significantly enrich your knowledge, networks, and professional prospects. The course is designed around three key themes; Developing Mindset; Leading Agile Transformation; and Building and Leading a Resilient Organisation. You’ll study mainly online at a time and place that fits in with your work/social/home life. Each online module includes two live webinars to facilitate further discussion of the related academic materials with your fellow students and module tutor. We then supplement this with three one-week residentials in three different countries, where you will travel to the UK, South Africa and Brazil and put into practice and participate in change management, strategic business planning and global consultancy projects with local businesses. As your confidence and insights grow, you’ll fundamentally challenge the ways you think about business, innovation, and leadership. More than just an elite developmental experience, the GEMBA is a transformative cultural one; you’ll join a high-calibre, multinational cohort of likeminded business leaders, and collaborate on live consultancy projects. You won’t just be learning about the nuances of international business practice — you’ll be living them. Achieve your goals and transform as a leader. Apply new knowledge and insights in your own organisation. Become a better, braver, more sustainable leader. This is a challenging, exciting course, developed for bold and dynamic thinkers — business visionaries with innate leadership skills, a history of excellence in management, and the appetite to better-understand the global business environment. If that’s you, we’re here to take your career to the next level. Nottingham Business School is proud to have achieved the prestigious triple crown of international accreditations with EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA. This is the highest international benchmark of excellence for business schools.
