Stories of success

To really know what the IMM program is like, and how it can propel you towards your career goals, take a look what our graduates have to say.
“The IMM program was great. During my third module, I was promoted to managing director, which gave me a great chance to apply my enriched knowledge from the IMM. The program is carefully structured to enable executives to take part in it, even if they are in a challenging part of their job career. For me, the IMM was a bridge between my engineering studies (along with 12 years of management experience) and a more expansive global approach to business.”
—Torok Laszlo, General Manager, Grundfos Hungary, Tatabánya, Hungary
“This program offered me a perfect mix of academic content to form a new foundation in my career path, excellent professors to enhance the content, challenging assignments to put theory into practice, and, most of all, an inspiring international environment of equally motivated students who bring in their diverse backgrounds and experiences. The focus on teamwork as well as discussions within the classroom and beyond accelerated the learning curve and made it possible for me to apply new knowledge directly into my job.”
—Mirjam Lemaire, Sales Manager, Info Support, Veenendaal, Netherlands
“I decided to go to the IMM Program to expand my opportunities to international commerce. My work as an attorney inside a corporation greatly raised my interest in working further in other operational areas and I felt I needed the credential of an MBA from a very reputable program. I selected IMM after evaluating many alternatives. These were the factors considered: reputation, cost, schedule and staff/faculty interaction. There is a sincere desire by the faculty and staff to help you succeed so the process of considering the program and starting the program was very pressure free and positive.”
—Susan B. May, Associate General Counsel, American Health Network Inc., United States
“One only gets out of an MBA what one is willing to put into the program. It is an individual investment of time, money, energy, and enthusiasm. Being surrounded by other professionals with similar goals, with a challenging curriculum, guided by renowned faculty, in an international environment is a recipe for success. The IMM program has lived up to and exceeded my high expectations of what I wanted from an MBA. I have already recommended it to friends and colleagues.”

“As the person responsible at Compaq Financial Services for underwriting risk in the newly created Structured Finance Division for banking, the Internet and telecommunications industries, I regard the participation in the IMM Program as a great benefit in conducting my daily job. The focus on international business, the demonstrated excellent reputation of the partner business schools in quantitative methods, finance and economics, and the great flexibility of the modules have been the main reasons that convinced me to apply.”
—Luca Sommacal, Credit Manager Structured Finance, Compaq Financial Services Holding Ltd., Italy
“The IMM program has given me the opportunity to create a strong international network of decision-making managers. The ability to visit and study in different countries served as an opportunity to work with a varied group of individuals with different professional backgrounds and nationalities, while being able to learn from their experiences. The program challenges every individual on a daily basis and constantly encourages you to test and prove your abilities, while being able to obtain a great education without leaving your current job. This has been one of the best decisions that I have made and I strongly recommend it to everyone.”
