Who We Are

4. When the world is your office, we believe that
the only security in global careers is the
ability to change. We help students develop
the essential skills to advance continuously
in their careers in global and competitive
environments. We aim to create awareness
and deliver knowledge to students about
‘the global playing field’ – the job markets
and requirements, the employers, and
opportunities for launching a global career.
Reflecting these needs, we designed the
‘International Competitiveness Program’,
covering the following comprehensive skills
modules:
Module 1:
Career Strategies
Knowing yourself is a prerequisite for a successful
career start and advancement. Based on a
variety of proven methodologies, we help
students take stock of their core competencies,
functional and industry preferences,
motivations, values, skills, people preferences,
and working conditions. Focus is the key to
a successful pursuit of a career path. We,
therefore, support students in the creation of a
strong career vision, goals and action plan.
Module 2:
Global Applications & Social Media
Finding a fit within an organization is a
major challenge for most students. We help
screen target employers or an individual
path as an entrepreneur or freelancer,
offering a broad range of global research,
contacts and networks. Expanding global
coverage with a personalized social media
strategy (Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook) allows
students to be found by global headhunters
and recruiters.
Module 3:
Application Material
Knowing how to create a unique footprint with
exceptional application materials is crucial.
HR professionals and recruiters decide in less
than four minutes if a candidate’s application

makes it or breaks it. We help students apply
for jobs in their preferred job markets and
industries, and fine-tune their application
materials to be aligned with specific job
requirements and cultural standards.
Module 4:
Global Personal Branding in Interviews
Being able to stand out in a crowd is a major
challenge. We help students tell and sell their
stories successfully to their global target
employers, by:
–
Defining a Unique Selling Proposition
–
Teaching Cultural Branding Tactics
–
Preparing a 90 Seconds Pitch
–
Providing awareness of different global
communication styles and behaviors
–
Imparting interviewing skills and
easy-to-apply survival techniques
Module 5:
Building Social Capital
The way of the world is meeting people through
people. We help students understand the
spectrum of successful business relationships
and establish business networks supporting
their professional visions and goals.
Module 6:
Reflect
Career coaching is one of our core services -
strongly related to individual topics that lead
to a realistic and well-developed self-portrait,
supported by an action plan. This module is
always highly rated by our students all over
the world.

EMBA students, and other Masters Studies, in

program of MayCoach Company. Focused on the
priorities of our global MBA clients, the training was

Wim Zwanepoel. Associate Director Career Services, Instituto de Empresa, Spain
Module 1:
Orientation
The initial question for many students is
simply one of curiosity: what’s it like to be
an entrepreneur? What spectrum of
entrepreneurial careers is there? What does
it take to develop an idea into a profitable
business? What personality, attitude and
skill set are necessary to develop as an
entrepreneur? This module is designed to
help students answer all of these questions.
Module 2:
Entrepreneurial Strategies
This module examines ‘blue business strategies’
as the crucial aspect of successfully starting a
new enterprise. Taking the most innovative
companies worldwide as an example, the
module reviews the areas of business model,
services/products, branding and customer
experience. Students learn the essence of
entrepreneurial activity – to conceive a long-
term business vision, create a powerful business
model that will convince and motivate
potential customers and partners to join in, and
to focus on bringing it into reality step-by-step.
Module 3:
Business Model Innovation
This module will help students invent, design,
and implement innovative business models,
creating value for customers and society.
Students learn about the nine building blocks
of business models, business model patterns,
design thinking, and strategies for
implementation.

Module 4:
Personal Branding Social Media
How do we leverage the incredible power of social media to make a
difference? How do we use it to support a clear, single, focused goal?
This module is designed to create awareness for Social Media and help
students design a social media strategy for the business idea.
Module 5:
New Business Coaching
New business coaching is strongly related to individual entrepreneurial
topics from idea generation to business modeling and implementation.
It helps students develop the right attitude and skill set to become
successful entrepreneurs.
This program is designed for Global MBA and EMBA students and other
Masters Studies, in which students particularly look for careers in
entrepreneurialism. The program can be delivered in modules of 1-2 day
workshops or as a 5-day program. Length of this module depends on
class size and can be added as coaching days.
