ESMT European School of Management and Technology is promoting women in leadership positions by awarding several scholarships. Two full scholarships are available for the Executive Transition Program as well as for the General Management Seminar. The scholarships are aimed at experienced female executives who have demonstrated entrepreneurial initiative and proven success in their area of responsibility.
ESMT also offers two partial scholarships for both the Executive Transition Program and for Bringing Technology to Market. Three of the partial scholarships will be awarded together with the 30% Club, a worldwide initiative with the aim to increase the number of women on company boards and in their talent pipeline. The partial scholarships for Bringing Technology to Market are for women in leadership positions, who are responsible for the marketing of products and services on global B2B markets.
“The Executive Transition Program is an intense development opportunity,” says Alexandra Strömberg, Director of the Service Center Europe of Klarna, Sweden, and participant of the Executive Transition Program in 2015/2016. “It has already supported me in an important transition that I’m currently going through professionally. The highly relevant program content, great facilitators – but most importantly the broad network of participants – help me to address some of my biggest challenges as a leader.”
