Antonio Isa Sedán Murra

Antonio Isa Sedan Murra, from 1984 to the present, has held management positions in companies in Colombia, France, Slovakia and the United States, where he currently resides. As an executive, he has added, and must continue to add, shareholder value using his experience and the same knowledge that he has taught at the IE since 2006.

Professor Sedan has validated in his business practice that the theory and cases discussed within the framework of the MBA at the IE are fully applicable to the business world and constitute an advantage for the leader who applies them; when the leader knows how; and reaches the minds and hearts of the people in the organization. For this reason, his courses are focused on the effective application of managerial principles.

He has been a member of the Board of Directors of multiple companies and a university.

After long working hours, he often goes to the gym to recharge his physical and mental energy.
