Today, I sat down with Executive MBA candidate Srilakshmi Amarnath, Senior Manager at BNB Paribas Fortis, and asked her a few questions about her experience at Solvay Brussels School Lifelong Learning.
After almost 17 years in the banking and the financial sector, I felt my career was no longer moving forward and the day-to-day was beginning to get monotonous. This was a bit of a wake-up call for me. I decided to take action, challenge the status quo and invest more time in my professional development.
I felt I was part of the "family" the moment I started interacting with Solvay Lifelong Learning. The course curriculum is well thought and well organised and combines the basics – finance, accounting, etc. – with such hot topics as innovation, global entrepreneurship and digital enterprises.
The schedule was perfect as it lets working professionals like me to combine work with an executive education. The international faculty are always helpful and go out of the way to assist you in your work.
I feel the Solvay Executive MBA excels at providing us, participants, with a holistic view of today’s business challenges while equipping us with practical solutions for addressing real-world issues.
I would strongly recommend anyone who wants to invest in themselves to pursue an Executive MBA. Combining your work experience with an Executive MBA will give you the skills you need to tackle any problem with confidence. An EMBA is also a place where you can meet like-minded individuals and grow your professional network.
