Leading Change and Organizational Renewal

Who Is Right for the Program

Because no industry sector is static, Leading Change and Organizational Renewal is designed by HBS Executive Education with a range of participants in mind. Executives in diverse roles from companies of all sizes and stages—from current market leaders to fast-growing midsize competitors to dynamic emerging companies—will benefit from greater insight into the strategic, cultural, and leadership processes that characterize a nimble company.

Delivering invaluable new perspectives from peers around the world, the program's heterogeneous peer discussion groups give you the opportunity to explore common problems, diagnose performance gaps, and develop action plans. You will take away a rich mix of ideas for applying the program's frameworks to your own challenges.

To encourage outcomes that will have positive impact across your organization, admission preference is given to senior management teams composed of four to eight individuals.

"The program gave me the chance to get away from day-to-day pressures and really think through the challenges and opportunities confronting my business. After hearing the latest thinking from leaders in the field of business transformation and innovation, I was able to share my views on strategy and change management with a diverse group of fellow attendees. It was an enormously positive opportunity to refresh, rethink, and test my ideas with the best."
