Entrepreneurial Companies
This general management program enables you to develop the strategic thought processes and skills necessary to successfully grow your business in today's dynamic global marketplace.
The Executive Program for Growing Companies offers a general management curriculum customized for organizations facing the opportunities and challenges of growth. While strategic leadership is the key theme of the program, the broad curriculum also covers all major functional business areas in depth. For example, finance sessions cover topics such as debt financing, leveraged buyouts, and initial public offerings; marketing sessions examine global market entry strategy, brand management, and customer relationship management; and human resource sessions explore management and measurement systems in growing organizations. The program also incorporates leading research from Stanford's world-renowned Center for Entrepreneurial Studies.
- Development of strategic competencies for leading and transforming growing companies
- Interdisciplinary frameworks for managing growth across all functional areas
- Tools to foster and sustain an entrepreneurial organizational culture
I gained specific tools for sharpening my organization's strategic focus. Robert Burgelman's presentations alone and their impact on my thought processes were worth the price of the program. The quality of the program in all areas―faculty, lectures, accommodations, food, staff, etc.―far exceeded my expectations. I will definitely consider these 14 days one of the best investments I have ever made!
