Executive MBA Ranking - Financial Times - 2024

EADA Business School has positioned its Executive MBA (EMBA) among the 100 best MBA programs in the world, according to the prestigious ranking published by the Financial Times. This international ranking highlights EADA's commitment to environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, a commitment that has earned it 99th place worldwide, with special recognition for its high proportion of hours dedicated to sustainability and ESG (#42 worldwide), and for its notable female presence in the program (#36 in the world).

"The balance of the program, which incorporates a strong leadership and management development component, as well as a focus on sustainability and ESG criteria, has been a decisive commitment that is not only bearing fruit in the professional careers of our graduates, but also in the responsible and sustainable impact they will generate in companies and, by extension, in society," says Marjolein Overmars, director of the Executive MBA at EADA.

This achievement adds to other important recognitions for EADA Business School in various Financial Times rankings this year. In addition to its position in the EMBA, the institution occupies prominent positions in various categories: #94 in the world in the International MBA, #41 in the Master in Finance, #36 in the Master in Management, #16 in management training in open programs and #46 in custom programs. EADA's position among the best business schools in Europe will also be announced soon, where it currently holds the #30 spot.
EADA's presence on this prestigious list also reinforces Spain's position as a leader in senior management education, by including three Spanish business schools in the Financial Times world ranking (IE, IESE and EADA).

A programme geared towards sustainable leadership and comprehensive development

The EADA Executive MBA, aimed at professionals with more than 5 years of experience seeking to enhance their careers, offers training with a global vision of the company, structured into four key blocks: adaptation to a changing environment, business strategy and leadership, functional skills such as finance and marketing, and customer connection strategies. This structure allows participants to face the new challenges of today's business environment with a comprehensive perspective.

The training experience is enriched with innovative methodologies that include executive coaching sessions, outdoor training and an international week in which students participate in academic activities, company visits and cultural experiences. All of this takes place at the EADA Residential Training Centre, the largest experiential training campus in Europe for the development of leadership skills.

With this approach that combines academic excellence and a clear commitment to positive impact on the environment, EADA Business School reinforces its role as a benchmark in executive education in a world in constant transformation.
