IESE's custom programs offer focused solutions to leading companies all over the world. The programs are designed to deliver knowledge on a specific business area or examine a complex problem relevant to the organization. IESE's international faculty lead the programs, which are typically held at the school's world class campus in either Barcelona or Madrid. Programs are intense and highly interactive, featuring casework, small group discussions, simulations and other hands-on learning techniques and approaches. Upon completing the program, participants will possess a concrete action plan to implement when they return to their companies.
Leading companies with which IESE has partnered to offer custom programs include the following:
Results-oriented programs
The programs are results-oriented. They provide hands-on, applicable knowledge challenging you to consider strategy and operations and the markets in which you compete in radically different ways.
For these special programs, we are able to draw on the expertise of leading partner institutions. These include Harvard Business School, Stanford and the University of Michigan Business School. We have run company specific programs together with Harvard, Wharton and the University of Michigan. Our unique, joint-venture approach to custom programs affords you the best of U.S. and European thinking on relevant business issues.
IESE's company specific programs are highly dynamic and interactive. The methods used include case studies, simulations, class discussions, presentations, small-group learning activities and break-out sessions. Case studies normally form the centerpiece of the programs. They engage faculty and clients in an interactive process of analysis of business issues and in-depth discussion to facilitate problem-solving and enhance decision-making skills.
If your company requests it, a member of the program faculty will write a case of specific relevance to the organization, in consultation with you and your colleagues.
Our experienced team of Executive Education managers will assure that all matters pertaining to program management and logistics are carried out to your satisfaction.
Most programs take place at IESE's campus in Barcelona. We have, however, held programs at our campus in Madrid, and others in China, Africa, the United States and Latin America.
