The program is designed for carefully selected promising mid-career executives with substantial experience in management. The typical class has representatives from firms of various sizes — from leading multinational corporations to small businesses — and from public and non-profit organizations. This diversity creates a stimulating learning environment. What makes Kellogg-Recanati program so special is the composition of the students. I found myself learning from my classmates and from members of my study group as much as I was learning from the teachers. The Kellogg-Recanati program is the nearest thing in Israel to the best of the business schools in the USA. Kellogg-Recanati isn’t just theory, nor is it just the first-rate teachers. It’s a relevant and powerful connection to the evolving business reality". Guy Rolnik Deputy Publisher, Haaretz Group Founder & Editor-in-Chief, TheMarker Media KR01   Over the years, the student body has included participants representing a wide variety of nationalities. A typical class profile includes up to 25% non-Israelis, of which Palestinians are the majority. Participants are expected to be approved or sponsored by their employing organizations. Unlike traditional MBA students, Executive MBAs work full time while earning their degrees. The benefits of this ambitious schedule are clear: Executive MBAs don’t have to wait until graduation to test classroom strategies on the job — they can do it on Sunday morning.

 

The essence of the program for most of KR participants is an opportunity to gain depth in the managerial disciplines with which they are already familiar. It's not easy to be a student again – especially in such a demanding program – and it requires a significant commitment to personal growth. Our role is to challenge our participants to constantly develop their professionalism. When these newly acquired skills become apparent, it gives the participant – and us! – a wonderful sense of achievement”.

Study Groups The Kellogg-Recanati program emphasizes teamwork as an essential part of the IEMBA experience. In general, each class is organized in groups of four to five students who meet to discuss current coursework. Many class projects and case studies are assigned to study groups and require a significant amount of teamwork. Study groups are designed to maximize the diversity of skills found among teammates and create opportunities for peer learning. The study group experience is further enhanced by the rotation of groups in the second year of study. This allows for broader acquaintance and affords an opportunity to exercise insights about effective group processes.
