Owner/President Management Program

Addressing the Unique Needs of Owners and Entrepreneurs

As an owner and entrepreneur, your relationship to your business is very different from that of other executive leaders. Managing equity stakes, transition planning, and strategic and professional growth all require special consideration on your part. Owner/President Management (OPM) is an unparalleled opportunity to step back from your daily challenges and acquire the skills, insights, and vision you need to sustain a profitable enterprise in the new economy.

What You Can Expect
This Executive Education program is taught in three-week sessions over three years. OPM enables you to assess your company's position, develop long-term strategies, create practical action plans, and connect with members of the extensive HBS network for advice and support.

Who Is Right for the Program
