Coronavirus has severely hit human health and economic growth, but executive MBA alumni and courses emerged from the initial peak of the pandemic in robust shape, according to data from the FT’s latest survey.
Privately, many business schools were nervous this year about even canvassing the views of students and alumni for fear of distracting them at a time of frustration over disruption to timetables, teaching, travel and earning power.
Yet, a poll of more than 3,000 alumni of the leading global schools conducted by the FT in June and July found they were willing to answer questions, optimistic in their views and comfortable in their circumstances.
