“The time to reflect
is of enormous importance.
To analyze where my industry will
most likely be in five years. I found
people who try to
manage their business and live their
life based on the same values.
Putting the people at the center of
what you do and not only profit. An
executive education program gives
you the time to think about what you
want to achieve and the tools and
techniques to achieve that.”

TAILORED TO YOUR ORGANIZATION
Each program is based on a deep
understanding of your objectives and
your specific challenges.

designed for that specific organization,
the intention remains the same: to

of participants to drive immediate and
lasting change across the organization.

DESIGNING YOUR PROGRAM
A program director will work with you
to design the solution that precision-
matches your company’s needs. Your
program curriculum and methodology
are then created by an academic director,
who will lead the learning experience
and ensure that your needs are met. The
customization process is grounded on
three different phases:
Phase 1. Dream
Time to think big and outside the box to
identify the most inspiring and effective
ways to bring about the desired change
in mindsets and behaviors.
Phase 2. Design
What should and shouldn’t be in your
program? We’ll work together to ensure
the design is fully aligned with your
organization’s current reality and your
future aspirations.
Phase 3. Deliver
The culmination of the process: an
intense learning experience delivered
over the course of several months via one
or more face-to-face modules. Pre- and
post-program analysis and follow-up
deepen the learning and impact.
