Advanced Management Program Transforming Proven Leaders into Global Executives

Who Is Right for the Program

AMP is designed for an elite group of senior executives who are proven business leaders. Successful applicants will hold leadership positions one or two levels from the CEO, and will be identified by their sponsors as a key part of the company's succession plan.

An ideal candidate for AMP is:

  • A member of the executive committee
  • The head of a major business unit

"AMP has reinforced that I need to consider where my gaps and strengths are and how I want to improve as a leader. It’s also important to make sure my team complements what I bring to the table. AMP emphasized that a big part of leadership is not just what I bring to the table, but it’s about depending upon the team and working to align and mobilize the people and organization."
