NEOMA Business School

Individuals or organisations… we are all involved in unceasing transformations. The fact that the goal-posts are constantly movimg and crises come one after the other can be extremely unnerving. How then, can leaders create spaces for innovation and lead individuals and groups on new enterprises.

As a leading international school, NEOMA Business School’s self-assigned mission is to train and support tomorrow's managers and entrepreneurs, capable of acting as responsible leaders and going beyond prevailing models.

To be recognised for our innovative educational strategy, for training imaginative and responsible leaders, who will constantly adapt to an ever changing global environment... This is the vision that drives NEOMA Business School.

More than knowledge, we teach our students to develop their own leadership skills, to challenge orthodox opinions and reinvent established models, to take account of their emotions and cultivate a sense of empathy, to stay connected and utilise talents, with team performance as their main focus.

Through our programmes, our research, and our partners, we reconsider the very notion of leadership, preferring to talk of #Humanship. This philosophy guides our actions. It structures our mission. It represents everything we believe in.

In this constantly changing environment, four key values guide NEOMA Business School every day as it educates the new generation: Openness, Entrepreneurship, Respect and Excellence. We strive to share these values with our students, our graduates, and more generally with all the communitiesaround us.

In an increasingly international professional environment, multicultural management is both inevitable and essential. Managing in a genuinely global working world has become a real challenge.

As a business school, we face this challenge every day. Our role is to prepare our students to progress successfully through this complex, global environment.

In light of this, internationalisation is a central component of NEOMA Business School strategy. Our internationalisation strategy is crucial to the school’s identity and its overall, long-term objectives. It is central to the fulfilment of our ambition “to be ranked one of the best European schools and to be recognised as the preferred partner of business.”

Our strategy is focussed on maintaining and enhancing the school’s international DNA, especially by building strategic partnerships, recruiting high-potential international students and faculty, and promoting faculty and student exchanges worldwide.

NEOMA Business School is a genuinely global community. Its three campuses offer a vibrant international learning environment, an international study abroad experience is mandatory in almost all programmes and faculty are active in international research partnerships and frequently deliver courses at partner business schools abroad.

NEOMA Business School benefits from the support of an international governance body, the International Advisory Board (IAB), in planning and implementing its strategic development.

The IAB's members exclusively of members from the world of international business and it serves as an external consultative body to the School's senior management team. It offers an invaluable external perspective on the School’s development.

The recommendations and opinions given by the IAB inform the discussions and work of the School’s board of directors. It guides the School’s thinking on a range of different issues, such as its international visibility and relationship with the business world.

Our research and teaching activities are structured around these priorities. We will continue to push back the boundaries of knowledge in the field of organisational leadership and development.

Our creation of the Centre for Leadership and Effective Organisations, at the crossroads between leadership, agility, and teamwork, stands as proof of our commitment. This centre of excellence naturally reflects the mission of NEOMA Business School and transmits our expertise directly to organizations.

To remain competitive, it is clear that companies must navigate in a hyper-connected, global, constantly evolving marketplace. How to achieve this is less clear.

How can we constantly remain agile, and flexible and anticipate the future? How can we find leaders that are adaptable and consider change as an opportunity?

Our team of world-renowned researchers and professionals proposes operational, customized solutions, value-added solutions to serve organisational performance.

All NEOMA Business School’s programmes reflect the results of this research and our strategic focus in the form of innovative teaching practices. Thus, the structure of all our programmes is based on fundamental principles: development of an unconventional, critical view of the world; the ability to socialise and develop one's influence; and whatever your discopline, the ability to question what appears self-evident. Each student creates their own leadership style, adapted to their circumstances and refusing to mimic standard models.

With over 145 years of experience, NEOMA Business School benefits from the excellence of its founding Schools and international partners.

Since their foundation, in 1871 (Rouen) and 1928 (Reims), the two schools have been linked to the business world, with an international outlook but strong roots in their local territories, a network of united, committed alumni, and academic recognition from EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA...

Marketing, Finance, Business, Supply Chain Management... NEOMA Business School's research and teaching expertise is unquestionable in all these disciplines, and the exceptional careers of our many thousands of graduates are the best proof of this.

Today, in a rapidly evolving world where change has become the norm, ensuring sustainable employability, means considering change as an opportunity for development. More than individual success,it means harnessing talent and working towards shared goals.
