One of the strongest attributes of the Executive MBA is the highly acclaimed faculty of the McCombs School of Business and Escuela de Graduados en Administración y Dirección de Empresas (EGADE). Leading professors from McCombs travel to Mexico City to deliver 80 percent of the program course content, and the remaining 20 percent – adapted to the Mexican and Latin American business environment – is delivered by EGADE Business School faculty. The academic reputation and industry experience of the faculty have earned these institutions rankings among the top business schools in the world.
The Executive MBA is taught by highly-acclaimed scholars representing all of the major management disciplines and functions. In addition to excellent teaching and academic credentials, they have a history of helping companies improve operations, refine strategies and translate contextual experiences into a powerful knowledge exchange across the MBA classrooms. They conduct leading-edge research; all are creative and dynamic teachers, passionate about teaching and always challenging students with real-world, timely issues and problems.
James Nolen, president of a consulting company and one of the anchors of McCombs’ renowned entrepreneurship curriculum, brings an acute understanding of how small businesses work into the Mexico City classroom. Accounting Professor David Platt serves as the Director of the McCombs School’s Center for International Business Education and Research, which develops partnerships with schools and businesses around the world. Professor John Daly helps students develop and hone their leadership and executive skills. He is a prolific author and consultant who includes among his clients the White House, the Mexican government and multiple Fortune 500 firms. Distinguished faculty from EGADE include Macario Schettino, a well known expert and opinion leader on Mexican economics and politics. He has also served as an advisor to major political parties. Alfredo Capote, who teaches Information Technology Management, has a distinguished business leadership career and served as president of IBM, Mexico from 1995-2002 and as vice president of strategic initiatives for IBM Latin America. In addition to serving as program director at the EGADE Business School, Michael Sanson is an internationally renowned executive coach and also serves as a consultant at two of Europe's top business schools. He brings his leadership development and executive coaching experience from Europe and the U.S. to Latin America and specifically to this program.
