Coller School of Management Tel Aviv University It is relatively small - just 35 students per class - increasing knowledge transfer and specialized attention among the students and faculty alike.

"The course on the management of international business is smack in the core of the KR International Executive MBA program. While the KR curriculum covers quite a few 'MBA languages', this distinctive experience in the KR program not only introduces the language of international business development, but it also offers the participants an opportunity to actually talk in this language with the management of real globally oriented enterprises in a foreign business territory (India, in recent years). If most executives are six degrees of separation from the riches knowledge and influence contacts, the KR program will put you at two degrees of separation.” These challenging strategy discussions are unparalleled precious learning opportunities." 26 27
