Employers

Sponsoring organisations benefit

Companies that sponsor candidates for the Executive MBA make a huge investment in their employees. The benefits of the investment will be apparent from the start as students are encouraged to apply leading-edge concepts in their workplace.

The benefits to employers include:

  • Immediate returns on investment as students apply what they are learning directly back into the workplace

  • Becoming part of the wide and diverse London Business School network

  • Attend our annual Employers Event celebrating the partnership between the School and sponsoring organisations

  • Development opportunities available to other staff in your organisation

  • Management report - a significant piece of assessment undertaken by students concerning an issue, ideally in their own organisation

  • Electives which can be tailored to filter the latest management thinking on specialist areas back to the students´ organisations

  • Optional skills portfolio where students undertake workshops learning highly transferable business skills

The Executive MBA Annual Employer´s Event

The equal partnership between the sponsoring company, the Executive MBA student and the School is of crucial value to the Executive MBA programme at London Business School. The Employers Event aims to promote this partnership by saying thank you to the companies supporting students through the Executive MBA. It also gives the key person within the sponsoring company a real insight into the world-class Executive MBA education that students receive. More fundamentally, the event provides a valuable meeting and networking opportunity.

We spoke to organisations at our most recent Employers Event.  Watch our new video and see what they had to say:
