“Deepening the knowledge, personal development and a step forward.”

This years generation of MBA students, from MBA program that is following the example of the best of the programs and is carried on the Faculty of Economics in Ljubljana, are already achieving goals that the designers of MBA and the students themself have set at the beginning of the  program.  In one place we can meet medium and higher managers whose goals are set high and who want to deepen their knowledge. MBA program is a meeting point not only of great potential and ambitions but also the core source of new business ideas and knowledge sharing.

Because nothing describes this program better than its participants, they have been willing to dedicate their time at the break and answer a few questions for EF news.


Ažman Jaka, Generali Insurance d.d.

Why did you decide for MBA program?

»The MBA program I chose mainly because it offers the opportunity for personal development and is essentially an investment for the future. Besides it gives us a lot of constructive knowledge that I can use in subsequent function or I can use in case of my own business. I believe that this is the only investment that pays off, which is no doubt refunded more than if you would buy some other means, so that this is an investment in knowledge forward, for life.
I think the candidates, so I as the others, have decided for an MBA program mainly because it is something new and I have also objectively assessed, that it is truly a quality program.

Does MBA meet your expectations?

»Yes it meets expectations. I think MBA is an excellent case, in particular, that it evokes a certain competence or talent in certain individuals, because the program is not standard and is mainly for talented or a little more capable individuals.«

Andrej Vihar, Kolektor d.o.o.

Why did you decide for MBA program?

»MBA was somehow logical choice to help me on the way to reach my goals. I am a technician by training, that is, a mechanical engineer and MBA gives me an excellent opportunity to acquire certain economic skills and managerial skills. Given that, the program is brand new and this was the main reason.«
What do you think this program will teach you what others could not?

»Since we can not try all the programs I can only anticipate. I think that here, to some extent, our investment in the program itself, because we are the first generation. I assume that we will obtain certain management skills and get to know some experience of people who have been in practice for a long time

Klemen Mišič, Office of the Information Commissioner

Why did you decide for MBA program?

»For a long time, I was looking for some study program, partly because of changing careers, and the reputation of the Faculty of Economics in Slovenia and Europe, I decided to do an MBA. The reason for it was also because I know that here are good teachers, the program is quite diverse, including foreign skills and foreign professors, and the whole effect is that I eventually decided for MBA.
When I heard that they will introduce the MBA program, I first inquired about it a bit and then decided, after all, the price also played an important role. «

What knowledge will you gain in this program that by other programs you would not?

»Given that I’m a lawyer as my basic education and not an economist, I of course first need some economic knowledge, that I wanted earlier, in addition, the MBA focuses more on practice than on theory, which was also a plus for making this decision. «

Erika Braukyliene, Studio Moderna d.o.o.

Why did you decide for MBA program?

» Well to begin with, I wanted to deepen my knowledge and as well  that would be some added value for my work and my career.«

Where do you see the benefits of an MBA program?

» Probably the main benefit is that in class we are actually exchanging our knowledge between the class so we can see how different managers are dealing with specific cases.«
