Case Study: Finland’s National Emergency Supply Agency strengthens leadership and strategic thinking with Aalto EE’s Global Leader and Executive MBA programs

Finland’s National Emergency Supply Agency offsets EMBA costs in one go with Aalto EE

Jarna Hartikainen, Head of Unit at Finland’s National Emergency Supply Agency (NESA), sought a broader understanding of business to better align the different perspectives of the companies and public sector entities within her national preparedness network. To address this challenge, she turned to Aalto EE, enrolling first in its Global Leader program and then the Aalto Executive MBA.

The solution from Aalto EE provided Hartikainen with strategic tools, heightened leadership confidence, and a holistic perspective that clarified how complex entities interconnect. The measurable impact was significant; the Business Strategy Project (BSP) conducted for NESA by her Aalto EE team delivered so much value that the agency's CEO stated it completely offset the cost of the entire EMBA in one go, providing a return that would have cost at least as much if commissioned from an external consultant.
