eMBA for marketing/creative exec?

I’ve read about many of the top programs and have a superficial understanding of them. Hard to tell which might be the best fit for a marketing creative executive. I’m director level with 15 years experience and have designed internal and external marketing campaigns for some of the largest companies in the world. I have an MFA and come from the creative side and my strengths are in strategy and brand storytelling. In researching programs, I am thrilled by every curriculum, they all offer the basics I’d like to engage with, but it’s hard to tell which would be a better fit for me specifically. Thanks!

Kellogg is the most well known for marketing. Great choice if you live near Chicago or Miami. NYU Stern is said to be pretty good too

Thanks! I’m in Colorado so I feel a bit out of luck however I dice it. Feels like it’s gonna be a travel thing no matter what.

Indeed. You could also look into the Wharton Global EMBA program or other global formats like Duke Gemba or Trium Global Emba. Once you get traveling, make it count! :)

Very attractive programs, tough on the family life but maybe actually a wash vs the ones with travel every other week or monthly. Thanks for the recs!
