Objective: The Accelerated Management Programme (AMP) has been designed for senior executives to provide them with an overview of key managerial disciplines, including strategy, finance, leadership and change management, marketing, operations and technology. The AMP equips you with tools and insights to meet the challenges of increasing uncertainty,global competition, declining product cycles, rapid technological change and organisational transformation.

The learning process focuses on providing you with the opportunity to broaden your understanding of the total enterprise and to more effectively manage your business and lead your people. It also helps you understand yourself and gives you a chance to reflect on your experiences and reinvent yourself to succeed in a rapidly changing environment.

For: The Accelerated Management Programme has been designed for ambitious executives, who hold senior positions in a functional area but are moving into a position where firm-wide, multifunctional perspectives are required. With a typical experience profile of about 10 years, these executives have been identified by their companies as having the potential to assume greater responsibilities within the company. They usually have expertise in one or more functional areas or may be CEOs and entrepreneurs of smaller companies with rapid growth potential. Participants come from a wide variety of backgrounds including operations, marketing, manufacturing, project management, engineering, R&D, finance and human resources.

Contents: The AMP draws upon faculty from the world’s top business schools to develop fresh perspectives and broaden thinking.

The programme uses highly interactive, experiential learning to engage participants in active discussions and create situations in which to practice new skills. Apart from an overview of key functional disciplines such as strategy, finance, marketing, operations and technology, the AMP adds critical examinations of leadership and organisational dynamics.

Leading high impact teams: Topics covered will include: -

• You as a leader - self assessment
