In today's economic climate, corporate leaders in multidivisional and multinational companies face a uniquely broad set of challenges. While putting in place the systems, relationships, and strategies that foster business unit success, you also must lead the business as a whole, optimizing financial strategy in a turbulent global economy, generating synergies across units, and creating opportunities beyond the current business. The Corporate Leader explores this multifaceted role in depth, helping you balance competing demands while maintaining the big-picture focus that positions your organization for future success.
In an intensive, learning-packed week, you will gain a thorough grounding in your unique role as a corporate executive in a multibusiness company. You will leave the program with a critical new perspective along with proven, career-enhancing tools you can use immediately.
This leadership development program addresses four fundamental activities of the corporate office: leadership, strategy, finance, and governance. In a comprehensive, case-driven learning experience that explores each of these areas in depth, you will learn how to prioritize objectives and make the most effective contributions to corporate success.
Designed for corporate executives from midsize to large multidivisional or multinational companies, the program is also suited to business unit managers working in, or planning to join, the corporate office. Prior experience with the case study method is required.
