The experience you gain on the GEBS Senior Management Programme will stay with you far beyond the five days of your educational experience. It is designed to be a learning journey that lasts a lifetime.

Your journey begins two weeks before your arrival on campus or the virtual classroom. You will be asked to map your key strategic encounters and the challenges that you have experienced to date. Each one of our programmes are different, and you as participants bring your own unique examples and challenges to the conversation. The solutions you create on the programme will stay with you for the rest of your life and will impact every part of your life’s work. 

During the five-day on-campus or live online programme, you will be coached to find solutions to your strategic challenges, while analysing your historical thinking patterns, and breakdowns will open up new possibilities for achievement and performance. 

You will reflect and receive feedback on your strategic challenges, facilitated by expert the GEBS faculty. You will work both individually and, in order to leverage the wealth of experience of your peers, in carefully selected groups comprised of senior executives facing strategic issues.

You also work on your “Generative Leadership Technique” (the other unifying element of the Advanced Management Programme) with the support of coaches, faculty and fellow participants. You will continue to make progress on this in the six months following your time on campus. This will support you in moving beyond your past habits, assumptions and breakdowns while developing a new context for performance.

Once you have completed the five-day programme, you will have the opportunity to engage in follow-up coaching through which to continue the process of reflection that began on the course, deepening your ongoing learning and personal development once you return to the workplace.

The full breakdown of course modules is as follows:

• Day 1 : Strategic thinking leadership, and change
• Day 2 : High-performance leadership and results-driven stakeholder engagement
• Day 3 : Creative leadership, innovation and problem solving
• Day 4 : Communication for action and coaching for performance
