Advanced Management Program

The three-part program is designed for members of the board of directors, entrepreneurs, all C-Suite positions (CEO, COO, CFO, CIO, etc.), managing directors, executive vice presidents, general managers, division heads and managers who seek to prepare for one of these positions.

Concept

The Advanced Management Program is designed for executives who seek a short sabbatical to study the fundamentals of successful business development and to reflect. Top facilitators provide the most recent management insights. Participants are guided to build analogies to their own businesses. Course content is highly practical. Sufficient time is set aside for exchange of experience and personal contacts with fellow executives from various industries.

Participants are invited to address the faculty with pressing concerns from their own professional environment.

  • The first part of the program looks at strategic management, the focal point of the executive level.
  • The topics of unit two include financial management, mergers and acquisitions, financial leadership and controlling.
  • Unit three will cover all the relevant topics on leadership management.
