#LearningForChange

The world of business is facing its biggest shift since the industrial revolution.

Businesses need to navigate not just new technology, emerging consumer trends, environmental changes and political instability, but also a switch to the purpose of the business itself – a purpose no longer serving just profit for shareholders, but a purpose that is beneficial for all stakeholders.

At a minimum, this means a big change for most businesses. It means total disruption for others.

With unbeatable insights from our FT journalists who daily are at the forefront of change, and our world-class professors from top institutions, we partner with our clients to empower people to lead and thrive, through and beyond, this shift of capitalism.

The role of leaders is being completely reshaped. While setting a clear business vision is essential, it is no longer enough. Every leader is different — and so are our programmes. Our leadership development programmes equip your key people with the skills they need to take your business to the next level.

Organisations globally have signed up to ESG commitments, but are they acting? As businesses have targets to meet, it is often hard for decision-makers to move away from a big deal despite ESG commitments. Having a clear purpose that meets stakeholders and investors' demands is essential. Our ESG programmes are designed to help you lead through this new reality. 

Digital innovation has enabled businesses to benefit from otherwise hidden opportunities. But it is not your technology that matters most - it's your people.  Our digital transformation programmes will help your teams to adopt a digital-first mindset, learn how to optimise user interfaces, turn offline process into digital workflows and transform satisfied customers into  brand ambassadors.

We believe executive education is a craft, not a commodity. With each new client, we develop an entirely fresh approach. Together, we ensure your learning journeys meet strategic goals and create value. 

Our work starts with understanding, empathizing with, and challenging your assumptions, vision and objectives.  For each client, we build a team of learning, impact and customer experience experts - supported by top professors and FT journalists.

To achieve real value-creation, our collaboration continues during and after the program as we work with you to ensure that learning outcomes are preserved in your business.
