“In the Executive MBA classroom, there is an exceptional quality of people. They are willing to open up and to share their time and their knowledge, in order for us to grow and learn from each other,” Marc-André Beaulieu related at his EMBA graduation ceremony in February 2016. He completed the 15-month McGill-HEC Montréal EMBA program and, building on his new learning and his expanded network, he knew he was ready to move up the ladder.
Soon after, he was appointed Director of Worldwide Engineering Services at Dassault Systèmes, a French consulting firm that provides business and people with a virtual universes to imagine sustainable innovations. Marc-André’s career has developed at Dassault since 2003, and he is excited to take on the direction of worldwide engineering services.
Marc-André knows that in this new challenge, if he encounters difficulties, he can count on the expertise of his 39 EMBA classmates. “I think that while learnings, new tools, reflexes, and the self-confidence that we gain during the EMBA are wonderful, what will have marked me most and what I will keep with me for a long time is the network and friendships that I developed at the EMBA.”
