I am in the process of the EMBA selection, and I would like to ask your help. I have finance background, middle manager position, and more than 10 years of experience. I am based in Switzerland, and I would like to continue my career here. As my next step I would like to either lead transformation/change management projects or move to CSR domain (I know those are two far from each other). I would like to use my EMBA as a career boost for the cross functional move and move toward career lather.
I am currently admitted to IESE (Munich campus) and ESCP (various campus). I applied both as they provide very good value for money programs. I like more senior profile of ESCP and its international cohort. Further more ESCP has certain curriculum linked to CSR.
IESE is a traditional business school with up to date curriculum based on the case studies. Also I feel that IESE has better post career services and much closes to the business. On the other hand their program is not flexible and seems to offer the curriculums for someone without finance/business background.
I am concerned that despite both school/programs very well rated, their names are less known than some other schools. I checked that both IESE and ESCP has relatively limited network in Switzerland. Shall I consider other business schools? LBS or INSEAD? However their tuition fee is twice of ESCP/IESE and I don’t want to move to consulting field.
Last but not least in Switzerland there is EPFL - famous technical university. As of recently they started to offer Technology EMBA. The university itself has a very strong brand, not sure about EMBA thought.
Thank you a lot for your assistance, I would appreciate any advice!

Hi MarieD
Both IESE and ESCP are good schools. Why not also look at IMD as an option? Hard to beat that within Switzerland!
