There are as many reasons to \u00a0do a program like the McGill-HEC Montr\u00e9al EMBA as there are candidates to the program. We \u00a0asked the participants who started the program recently, all experienced managers and entrepreneurs, what \u00a0their own reasons were for doing the program. Here are some of their anonymous answers, \u00a0grouped into \u00ab10 very good reasons to do an EMBA\u00bb!<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Self Development<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cI feel humbled by what there is still to learn\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u00abFaire le point de mes connaissances et aptitudes, \u00e9valuer mon niveau de connaissances et de comp\u00e9tences dans le domaine de la gestion strat\u00e9gique \u00e0 une \u00e9chelle plus grande que celle \u00e0 laquelle mon exp\u00e9rience actuelle m’a expos\u00e9 – ceci me permettra de d\u00e9celer mes points d’am\u00e9lioration et d\u2019y travailler pour \u00eatre capable de mieux servir mon entreprise et l’humanit\u00e9 en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abPour moi, c\u2019est le besoin de me ressourcer tant au niveau professionnel que personnel.\u00bb \u201cI think that the EMBA will help me better understand myself and have a better perspective of how successful leaders face and overcome challenges.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2. Have an impact within my organization<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u2018Further strengthen my contribution to the growth of the company while increasing my knowledge of business management theory to become the global leader that I strive to be.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u00abFaire la diff\u00e9rence dans la livraison de mes mandats.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abLa compagnie que j\u2019ai fond\u00e9e il y a plusieurs ann\u00e9es a besoin d\u2019innover, d\u2019une nouvelle vision, d\u2019obtenir le nouveau pouls du monde des affaires.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u2018I want to adapt as many new concepts and procedures in our organization in order to keep it current.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u00abJe suis persuad\u00e9 que mon entreprise pourrait atteindre un autre niveau si mes comp\u00e9tences manag\u00e9riales et ma vision strat\u00e9gique atteignaient un niveau sup\u00e9rieur.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

3. Prepare for challenges ahead<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cI am a part of the succession plan for our company and I do believe that the EMBA program is the best way for me to get ready to lead the company strategically towards continued growth and success.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00abJ\u2019ai besoin d\u2019une plateforme pour \u00e9changer et perfectionner les outils n\u00e9cessaires \u00e0 la saine gestion de ce qui deviendra mon entreprise et ainsi pr\u00e9parer mon entr\u00e9e au sein du groupe de propri\u00e9taires.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abJe souhaite faire partie de la rel\u00e8ve de mon entreprise de fa\u00e7on \u00e0 assurer que sa vision et sa mission seront respect\u00e9es.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abJe veux d\u00e9montrer ma d\u00e9termination et mes comp\u00e9tences lors d’un rachat \u00e9ventuel de l’entreprise.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abJe compte utiliser l\u2019EMBA et mes nouveaux contacts pour m’outiller face aux nouveaux d\u00e9fis et opportunit\u00e9s du march\u00e9, analyser mon entreprise sous des nouveaux angles, d\u00e9velopper les strat\u00e9gies menant \u00e0 des changements durables et profitables.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

4. Refine skills and knowledge <\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00abJe veux m’exposer \u00e0 de nouvelles fa\u00e7ons de penser ax\u00e9es sur la strat\u00e9gie et mieux m’outiller afin de r\u00e9aliser des projets \u00e0 la hauteur de mes r\u00eaves et de mes aspirations.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u201cI need to refine my soft skills – ability to think, communicate and strategize like a manager.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00abTr\u00e8s instinctive de nature, mon objectif est de d\u00e9velopper ma rigueur intellectuelle et op\u00e9rationnelle pour \u00eatre toujours en mesure de soutenir concr\u00e8tement mes d\u00e9cisions et mes id\u00e9es.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00abJe veux comprendre la cha\u00eene de cr\u00e9ation de valeur de mes clients, saisir rapidement leurs d\u00e9fis op\u00e9rationnels et leurs enjeux contractuels et am\u00e9liorer mes capacit\u00e9s \u00e0 trouver des solutions d’affaires efficaces \u00e0 leurs difficult\u00e9s pour mieux les accompagner et les \u00e9pauler.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThe program will allow me to test myself and learn enough to be able to believe and demonstrate I am the best candidate when the time comes for me to further advance my career.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
