With at least five years of managerial experience behind you, now is the time to accelerate to more senior leadership positions. This Executive Master’s is purpose-designed to strengthen your leadership toolbox – with flexible study which means there’s no need to give up your present role.

At the program’s core are four leadership-focused distance learning modules of 12 weeks’ duration each.

They are:

  • New Frontiers in Hospitality
  • Driving Financial Performance
  • Delivering Operational Excellence
  • Leading the Transformation

Each module incorporates a specialized Masterclass, covering the Metaverse and its impact on the industry; blockchain technology; crisis management in hospitality; and retaining talent – new challenges.

Once you’ve completed the taught curriculum, you will have a further six months to undertake a Capstone Project or Applied Business Project before you earn a Joint Diploma from ESSEC and Glion.

Flexibility is at the heart of this program, allowing you to balance your learning with the demands of your professional role.

You will have 14-18 hours of study per week. These are split between self-study, project assignment forums and case studies, as well as recorded live sessions with faculty and peers.

Executive-level networking is a key element of the learning process, as the Executive Master’s has a minimum age of 27 and requires applicants to have accumulated at least five years’ managerial experience.

You will also enjoy free access to smart learning tools and applications throughout the program.

A unique and exceptional feature of this Executive Master’s offers you the chance to spend a week on campus in Montreux, Singapore, London and Paris.

During these four carefully-curated Residential Weeks you will:

  • attend face-to face classes delivered by international faculty members
  • enjoy behind-the-scenes tours of leading hotels and other hospitality businesses
  • meet with visiting experts
  • get to know your fellow participants as you build a strong team dynamic

You will also have the opportunity to meet and network with locally-based alumni from both Glion and ESSEC.

A pioneer of business-related learning since 1907, ESSEC Business School’s mission is to respond to the challenges of the future.

In an interconnected, technological, and uncertain world, where the tasks are increasingly complex, ESSEC offers a unique pedagogical approach. This approach is founded on the creation and dissemination of cutting-edge knowledge, a blend of academic learning and practical experience, with multicultural openness and dialogue.
