Testimonials
Tomorrow's experts
“Futuristic Supply Chain is a whole new terrain for the Supply Chain professionals. The young supply generations needs to be equipped with a great sense of self initiative and innovative ideas to match trend markets. My experiences with ISLI gave me an impression that these new generation of Supply Chain experts are indeed prepared and equipped with such skills and mindsets.”
ISLI gave me all the tools I need to become successful
“Being part of one of the best companies in the Supply Chain world I am constantly challenged with difficult problems to be solved. The proximity and velocity to respond to Customer demand, meeting promises while ensuring the minimal potential investment is just one of them. The distribution of the volume across countries and warehouses, ensuring the right transportation method to the customer is just another. The Supply Chain world can be challenging, but also exciting and ISLI gave me all the tools I need to become successful.”

Adapt to complex situations and thrive in an international environment
“I am an Area Export Manager (Germanspeaking countries), in charge of sales and business development for a wine trader specialised in Bordeaux grands crus. Cultural and multicultural diversity in the International Business MSc programme was a real plus. The teaching was delivered by top-class faculty and we had the best tools to work with. Today, I am able to adapt to complex situations and thrive in an international environment.”
A fantastic experience in a widely multicultural environment
“I entered the International Business programme with just the zest for challenge and desire to learn all I could and what followed was a fantastic experience in a widely multicultural environment. Team work with fellow classmates from different countries, lectures from professors with hands-on experience in incubation, geopolitics & consulting, study trips, courses through interactive gaming-like simulations etc., made the journey a true experience rather than just another academic curriculum. I now work for Global Purchasing in DELPHI Automotive in Luxembourg, where I look after large scale procurement in the EMEA region. Dreams ahead, miles to go and very happy about the good start now.”

This network helped her to land a permanent contract in the sector
Maeva initially trained in finance, so the world of culture was not an obvious career path. But that wasn't going to stop her! Her passion for music drove her to persevere, and as soon as she joined the Specialized course "Management of Arts and Creative Industries", she wanted to find a music label. Sociable and ambitious by nature, she soon met many people working in arts and culture in Bordeaux, and it was this network that helped her to land a permanent contract in the sector.
Couldn't have made it without Kedge
"Kedge was rated top #10 business schools in France. Loved the campus when I came in for interviews and loved the hospitality and the city of Marseille which became a second home for me. I discovered marketing while at Kedge and made it a lifetime career. Has been working in the function across CPG and retail for more than 20 years across 5 countries and 4 continents. Couldn't have made it without Kedge. I was also one of the first promos to benefit from the 'Contrat en Alternance' where you spend 3 days in school and 2 in enterprise. This enabled me to learn fast how to work in a corporation and be able to adapt and bring immediate value to the company that hired me after graduation. Kedge created a sense of community for me that I try to bring in any new role and city I move to. It helped me to adapt to different situations, be more open-minded and emphatic.
Lifetime friends. Sense of community and belonging and a love for the city of Marseille and its iconic soccer team."
Since starting the MBA, my life has completely change
"I started the Executive MBA last November. I was extremely apprehensive. I didn't know what I was getting myself into but I knew I needed a change. I've been in middle management for a long time. I've been a found raiser for the past 12 years of my life and I was looking to become a leader, more than just a manager. Since starting the MBA, my life has completely changed. My skills of growing, my soft skills, have come along leaps and bounds. I'm actually starting a new job in leadership, back in London, in January to say that the cage MBA has been transformational. Seems like an understatement when I consider all the changes and the journey that I've been on. I couldn't recommend it enough, just do it !"
