Learning Environment

The program’s integrated learning environment creates an unrivaled opportunity for individual development, ongoing exchange with peers, and action learning.

Teaching Methods Faculty will use a wide range of teaching methods including, interactive discussions, individual learning challenges, cases, peer coaching, role play and group exercises.  Using a combination of learning methods allows for participants to have more memorable experiences, resulting in more impact on the organization from the educational experience.

The case method is long-recognized as an incredibly powerful business education tool. The program faculty’s leadership and expertise in case writing and teaching add a powerful dimension to the learning experience. Participants engage in an interactive learning process that replicates executive decision making in actual business situations. Incorporating both written and “live” case studies that offer multiple levels of learning, the program compels executives to identify relevant issues and to apply practical business lessons to their own situations and companies. 

Dynamic Interaction All program activities are structured to foster formal and informal interchange among high-level peers from different backgrounds, companies, and industries, as well as with the faculty members from the collaborating business schools. Classroom discussions, case studies, team projects, and study groups promote the exchange of ideas and experiences; stimulate fresh thinking; and encourage different points of view. This shared learning creates a unique opportunity for participants to reexamine and reformulate their goals and strategies, both professionally and personally.
  
Action Orientation The program’s action-oriented team approach, driven by the case study method, helps participants to apply their personal experience and new business knowledge to generate solutions in real time. While examining strategic issues, CEOs are encouraged to consider specific areas for application, particularly how they can leverage structure, processes, culture, and incentives to implement strategic change within their organizations. Participants will apply strategic learnings to individual projects they have identified prior to the beginning of the program & forums of discussion and review will support in the further development of these projects.
