Strategic management. Organizational theory. Personal leadership. The Executive Program in Strategy and Organization focuses on all three. Through pioneering multidisciplinary research from Stanford GSB faculty, you’ll learn how to create a strategy that aligns with your organization, culture, and the environment in which you compete. Experience two academically rigorous weeks packed with lectures, hands-on exercises, case studies, and discussion groups.
At Stanford, we focus on frameworks that help you think in new ways about the strategic challenges and opportunities you face — why some strategies work and others fail. We’ll examine the different aspects and approaches to strategy, while engaging in topics such as economic incentives, game theory, organizational culture, and being a successful leader. Rather than getting a checklist of best practices, you’ll come away with the skills you need to create powerful, winning action plans.
It’s a unique opportunity to learn things you won’t find in the news or business books, and immerse yourself with fellow executives in a learning environment that cultivates an innovative mindset to bring back to your organization.
