Advanced Management Program

In times of emergent digitalization, characterized by constant shifts in customer behavior and unforeseen events with global impact, the way companies compete is changing in every industry, and the future looks like anything but “business as usual”.

The quest for sustainable advantages will predominantly rely on constructing innovative business models, nurturing an enabling culture, laying out sound financial strategies, and promoting effective leadership.

Such challenges and mandates warrant the increasing demand for business leaders who are agile and resilient. Senior leadership must be able to develop a pertinent vision, communicate it, and motivate others while making advances in strategy and leadership.

The Advanced Management program is designed to enable a shift in leadership perspective and a reevaluation of strategies to unlock business growth. Participants will become more tuned into the dynamics of their relevant business environment and will acquire the ability and agility to seize upon fleeting opportunities inside and outside their organizations.

The program employs a mix of learning methods, weaving together real-world practice with state-of-the-art experiential learning sessions, peer learning, personal assessments, and individual and group coaching.
