When you participate in a blended Executive Education program at Harvard Business School, you get the best of both worlds—a powerful learning experience that combines highly immersive in-person modules on the HBS campus with highly interactive virtual modules. The blended format provides opportunities to apply new skills and frameworks in your organization during the program.
Both case-based formats are led by HBS faculty, who share their latest research and engage you in a dynamic exchange of ideas with a global community of peers. Each module is carefully designed to maximize the impact, enable immediate application, and accelerate leadership growth.

Through faculty presentations, case studies, guest speakers, interactive simulations, and small-group discussions, you will explore diverse aspects of leadership, management, and organizational behavior. You will draw insights from timely research as you discover how other LGBTQ+ leaders have navigated their careers.
As an LGBTQ+ leader, you may have few people in your organization who understand the unique perspective you bring, as well as the particular obstacles you face. In this program, you will have the opportunity to meet an exceptional group of peers with whom you can share your challenges and opportunities as an LGBTQ+ leader.

This program comprises two modules:
You and your peers will have an opportunity for extensive in-person interaction with one another, with faculty, and with guest speakers. At the conclusion of Module 1, you will return to work where you will complete a self-assessment and apply your new insights in your day-to-day work.
Shifting to a virtual format, you will rejoin your peers to reflect on how you have applied your learning and bring your questions to the group. You will continue learning from faculty presentations and case studies while also benefiting from online exercises. This virtual module will consist of two fully packed half-day sessions over the Zoom platform. You should expect to spend an additional 2-3 hours preparing for each day’s classes.
Collaborative learning is an integral part of the experience. To maximize the benefit for everyone, you are expected to attend every session, complete all assignments, and contribute in the class and in small groups.
