Hey - looking to hear advice from anyone who has done an Executive MBA.
My title is outdated (not at Accenture anymore), I’m 33 and now a Director in Strategy/Ops at a smaller health company making ~230k all-in. Not sure of rankings exactly, but I’d hope to end up at a 5-10 ranked EMBA program.
Just wanted to hear folks experience in similar situations and any recommendations you may have. Appreciate it!

I’m in EMBA currently at Kellogg.. experience has been fantastic (and Miami campus is great
). As with anything you’ll get out what you put into it when it comes to networking and academics.. feel free to PM.
