"The Kellogg-Recanati International Executive MBA Program impacted my life in so many ways. It gave me the space and the tools to explore and create new opportunities for myself, and to forge deep and meaningful friendships for life. I was also incredibly fortunate to find my amazing co-founder in my KR23 class, and even our very first investor was one of our professors!"

"I have been practicing Israeli Antitrust Law for more than 25 years, and always wanted to take an MBA program. With four kids and a demanding career it took a little longer than planned.
Finally, I joined KR 23. I assumed the faculty would be top notch, but I didn’t know that some of the professors would have rock star qualities; I assumed the administrative staff would be supportive, but I didn’t know that they would be extremely diligent and attentive to my specific and personal needs; I hoped my classmates would be interesting and proficient in their fields, but I could not have dreamt that they would be such talented, intelligent and inspiring leaders. Friends for life. I have just graduated, and I already miss the program.The Kellogg-Recanati EMBA is an incredible ride. It was definitely worth waiting for."

"The space for higher education programs is packed with several choices, for me, when I realized it was the time to seek for studying MBA program, I wanted a world class degree, but also wanted to stay around, with these combinations of lacking the ability to travel abroad for long time, and the passion of having the best educational program, my choices became limited but still are many!!
After digging, reading and comparing, there was only one program that provided answers to all my questions, giving me the flexibility I need to do my work, see my family while enjoying the best eduction, gaining remarkable experience, and building a very special, diverse, extended and influential network. it was the executive MBA program at the Kellogg-Recanati global education program, where I learned and enjoyed networking with more than 470 students from all over the world, who studied with me at the Kellogg global network in 7 different campuses in major cities in the globe. joining and graduating from Kellogg-Recanati program has equipped me with a sharper vision and provided me with the needed knowledge, experience and network to achieve higher goals and to celebrate more success and achievements."

"I decided to join the Kellogg-Recanati program after many years of growing and managing my own company and staff. The opportunity to learn from the best professors in the world aside by learning in work groups with people from so many different areas was a great experience for me.
I found the Global elective weeks in Chicago, Tel Aviv and in other campuses from the Kellogg network very inspiring, studying with people from all around the world gave me great value and opened me up to a great network. The global perspective and studying together with business people from all around the world changed the way I thought and opened me up to many ideas and initiatives. I highly recommend the program, it was one of the best presents I could have given myself."

"Joining Kellogg-Recanati was one of the smartest decisions I ever made. I was able to implement the knowledge I gained in the program in my company within the first week.
I could never have acquired the new relationships I formed with people from various backgrounds without the program, and I am enjoying them to this day. I believe that the Kellogg-Recanati program is the most experienced, global and advanced EMBA out of all the available programs in Israel. It was a true connection to the global business environment."

Shira Levy BarkanGM Fiverr Business KR16, Class of 2013 Read more>
"I always wanted to study in an international program or at an Ivy League university so that I would be able to make an international, English-speaking business career for myself and experience the global business world.
Unfortunately, for personal reasons I was not able to study abroad, so the Kellogg-Recanati International Executive MBA program at Tel Aviv University gave me exactly what I wanted – a real global learning experience, ranked among the 10 best programs in the world, with the best professors, and the opportunity to analyze international business cases. The two live-in weeks in Chicago during the summer with senior managers from around the world, analyzing riveting international business cases, along with courses on subjects such as managing virtual teams, and managing intrapreneurship –entrepreneurship inside the organization, were invaluable to me as a manager and I still read the course material. Being able to host in Israel a group of managers from the partner programs in the Kellogg network was for me a good opportunity to present the Israeli market and the experience of living in Tel Aviv. Then, of course, there was the networking – the many lasting contacts I made during my studies opened up countless possibilities that I didn’t have before."

Ori LehaviGeneral Manager KR15, Class of 2012 Read more>
"KR has changed my life completely. After the first class I decided to attend tradeshows in the US and that is how my business has extended globally. The program has given me the tools, inspiration and most of all the network that changed me into a global CEO, and my company into an international brand. No other course, summit, or any other action had the same impact as the KR program had. Until today, more then 10 years later, I find myself quoting an amazing professor or checking assays in a KR marketing book."

Zvi VilnaiCEO KR15, Class of 2012 Read more>
"The KR program charged me with the energy, the knowledge and the courage necessary to make a fundamental change in my business career. This is in addition to the amazing experience I had through the team work with senior managers from different disciplines. Many of them stayed good friends, years after graduation. It was certainly a life changing experience."

Huda El JackCo-Founder;The International Peace Accelerator KR13, Class of 2010 Read more>
"I was looking for a “relevant” Ivy League quality program and Kellogg-Recanati was the perfect match. I was already a Senior Executive when I joined the program but I was missing some of the "science" behind "the art" and I got it, no question, at KR from some of the best in the field. But just as importantly - I got the “relevancy”. I attended class with top Palestinian, Israeli and some Arab minds and that was the biggest plus. For two years we worked together, agreed & disagreed, collaborated and competed, smiled and growled Some built lifelong lasting relationships, others chose to never communicate after the program but the experience is certainly hard to replicate - getting to know the other while interacting on a level playing field , unfortunately a rarity in this region. I highly recommend the education and experience."

"Going to KR was one of the best decisions I have taken in my career. Not only did it widen my horizons and exposed me to things I didn’t practice before, but it also gave me a network of friends who holds today key leading positions in the global industry.
I’m a great believer in KR and I really DO think it gave me a lot and helped me become who I am today!.."

"I decided to join an MBA program after spending several years in the Hi-Tech industry. I knew that in order to expand my business knowledge and skillset I need to get the right tools in addition to my intuition. After checking and comparing several options I have decided to join the KR program.
What I loved in the program is that you get to meet and hear excellent teaching professors that are not only interesting and exciting to hear, but they are also real industry experts who work with many top brands all over the world. In addition to the lectures, the experience I had with students from US, Canada, HK and Germany in addition to my great Israeli group, expanded my global knowledge and network and provided me tools to deal in my future career. I can now say that the KR program was a real diversified experience."

"As a veteran political journalist, I did not come from the typical MBA background, and many people asked me "what are you doing here." But two years at KR were an eye-opening experience. Through the program I gained exposure to people from different career paths, learning about their experiences and dilemmas. And the classes were an invaluable preparation for future management roles."

"
The Kellogg-Recanati IEMBA program is an excellent program, combining high academic standards, international exposure, a great atmosphere and a platform for creating relationships, business networking and new friends. The program provides the executive manager with relevant and updated professional information, case studies and, perhaps more importantly, tools to assist the manager in better understanding contracts and the legal aspects of running business, making better financial analyses and decisions, building strategies and marketing orientation."
