After joining RSM’s EMBA programme, student Marius Zuurbier quickly saw a shift in the way he approached his role as product manager. Not just in his knowledge, but in his mindset.
With prior hands-on experience in business, Marius’ goal was clear: build a stronger foundation in finance, marketing and strategy while gaining a holistic view of company dynamics.
What made the difference for Marius?
💡 A highly motivated, international peer group
📚 Open, experience-driven discussions with faculty
💼 Immediate application of frameworks to real business challenges
Concepts like Net Present Value and strategic analysis didn’t stay in the classroom, Marius could apply them directly within the organisation. He also initiated ongoing conversations with senior leadership.
“It’s not just about frameworks,” Marius said, “it’s about how you approach business differently.” His noted result: stronger strategic thinking, broader internal networks, and a clear ability to contribute at a higher level.
