ESCP trains international leaders to design the world of tomorrow. Being an executive means making decisions in a world that is shaped by constant change. Increasing globalisation, geopolitical shifts and the emergence of new technologies and trends – such as Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and the Internet of Things – challenge traditional ways of thinking and conducting business.In a demanding professional environment, it is often hard to find the time to step back, analyze these trends in detail, and decide whether they constitute a threat or an opportunity for your company. Our Global Executive Ph.D. enables participants to look at their world through the lens of theoretical concepts and frameworks and gain a different perspective.

The ESCP Global Executive Ph.D. programme combines courses from world-leading Faculty, all conducting cutting edge research in their field of study. Over four years, each participant receives individualised feedback and coaching from a Faculty mentor, allowing her/him to explore in detail a new phenomenon or trend. In the process, the programme enables participants to acquire skills in reasoning and methodology, which can be applied outside of the scope of the Ph.D.. Participating in a Global Executive Ph.D. is a unique opportunity to become a world leading expert on a question you are truly passionate about and to create new knowledge that is of relevance for you, your organisation and for society at large.

In a world shaped by the economy, reorienting how this world evolves has become a duty of the sphere of business.

It’s by giving meaning to business that we will be able to nurture society in a positive and sustainable way. As a business school training leaders and entrepreneurs for more than 200 years, our role is central in teaching how to better anticipate change, and make decisions.

Because, in life as in business, everything starts with choices.

It is by making such choices that ESCP Business School upholds its values, its unique management style and its unique point of view on the world.

The era of responsible, augmented and collaborative leadership has arrived: a leadership aware of global issues, sustained by our values rooted in European humanism, our unrivalled worldwide diversity and multiculturalism.

Joining the international ESCP community is beyond embracing academic excellence; it is about learning how to make enlightened choices to be ready to meet the great challenges of our times with optimism.

Yes, with optimism because, like ESCP’s founding fathers in 1819, we believe in progress.

We constantly explore new knowledge territories from sciences to humanities, allowing our graduates to reach a new level of insight and to engage with intelligence and responsibility.
