Hi guys,
I am from Georgia (country), living and working in a consulting firm in Germany and planning to do an EMBA in the next year. I am kind of puzzled and my question(s) might seem odd, but I have heard different opinions whether:
a) Kellog-WHU EMBA has the same (perceived) value and will potentially render similar benefits as the EMBA programme run independently by Kellog business school (to put in another terms, will WHU increase or decrease value / potential benefits of the programme, considering that I will most likely continue my career in Germany)?
b) Would you prefer INSEAD EMBA to the one offered by Kellog-WHU?
I understand that there are a bunch of factors that have to be considered, but I merely need to know your general personal preferences / "feelings" with respect to the above mentioned programmes.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hello Kvirik, who are the sources of your opinions?
I feel this all relates to location and if you plan to continue in Germany, WHU makes sense. There will be fellow alums there you can connect with. Are you aware that EMBA is part-time? So, you need to be fully employed and I imagine it might be easier to work out Kellogg-WHU than Kellogg EMBA in the US (at least, for Chicago, however Kellogg Miami EMBA meets once per month.)
I think INSEAD EMBA sounds like an equally viable idea however really, I would survey fellow executives where you live in Germany. It's very well ranked.
If you feel that you might move on from Germany, in Asia, Africa, MENA or Europe especially, or NYC, then INSEAD EMBA might make more sense.

Dear Farrell,
Many thanks for your feedback - very much appreciated.
To your questions:
- The sources of my opinion are my current and former colleagues (peers as wells as Partners), friends and alumni of WHU, Frankfurt School, etc.
- I am very well aware of the entire structure of the programme as well as of the rankings (FT, Economist, Forbes, Bloomberg Businessweek, etc.)
I did not want to overload my question with the details, since I more needed people's opinion how these schools / brands are perceived by recruiters, company executives, etc. I do understand that Kellog-WHU is the most viable option, but considering that I have already been graduated from WHU and in terms of connections it will not bring that much, I need to know (disregarding all practical/geographical factors and assuming that I will be able to study in Chicago, France, Oxford or wheresoever):
- Whether Kellog alone / INSEAD / Oxford Saïd will look "stronger" in my resume than Kellog-WHU?
- Why is it better to get an EMBA from INSEAD rather than from Kellog-WHU, if I decide to continue my career in the US? Will not M7 will make more difference rather than INSEAD (although I totally understand that it is very highly ranked and considered as one of the best business schools in the world)?
Thanks a lot once again.
