The IMD Leading Strategic Initiatives Program in the Cloud was an outstanding

experience for me. An intensive learning process combined with well selected real life

cases study, mixed with group and team exercises, lectured by great teachers and

executives via videos and supported by outstanding coached created a real value and not

only for my own skills, but also had a direct impact in my day to day business. (…)

It was very interesting to take some time to think differently about our traditional way of

looking at an industry. (…) It’s key to be able to switch off from our day-to- day job for

a few hours to better feel immersed in the program. Web learning when done properly

is a great alternative to instructor-led training in a formal class room.

It had been a long time since I have participated in a program as interesting as this. Honestly this program not only met but exceeded my expectations and learning objectives. What I liked most was the well-structured methodology, especially for the implementation phase. All support materials: book, cases, templates, etc., are very good, practical and helpful and complement each other.

(…) The material provided and discussions we have had during the course has trigger many thinking on my end for how to improve the execution of the strategic initiative which I am leading today. Learnings around stakeholder management and focus and alignment around key milestones and KPI's have already been included in my work. I also found it very useful to be able to take a course and do work when my schedule allows. The outline of work required and dates was well planned and achievable. Having the course go over an 8 week period also helped solidify the topics in my head which is sometimes difficult if only having a few days intense learning and then being back in the flood of day to day business.

Thomas SoerensenOperations Director

Grundfos Brazil

The LSI module was my first experience of a distance learning course and I was somewhat sceptical if this would provide value for me. But after completing the module I have gained some real learnings in the areas I was looking for improvements, in particular regarding stakeholder management and communication. This was a good experience and something I would recommend to anybody wanting to learn or refresh their skills on managing strategic initiatives.

Strategic partnerships are a must to compete in the real global economy and the IMD/LSP program drives you through a structured approach of the process of thinking, designing and implementing strategic partnerships.

Very well structured with a good balance of theory and practice. Prof Henderson guidance (…), and always very well structured comments on the individual assignments, contributed to my positive experience with the program. (…) The caliber of the participants speaks for themselves.

The program was offered to me at the exact moment in my career as I just took over the role of a team lead, during a time of change. I could immediately apply very relevant leadership concepts in my day-to-day activities and see the immediate positive effect in my team! The program not only helped me to establish myself as a caring team lead but taught me the importance of keeping a positive mind set, to see myself through the eyes of others and supported me to develop a clear leadership vision of who I’d like to become.

Christoph SchroederBusiness Manager

My biggest learning from this program is that leadership is not only about achieving targets but about continuously building relationships: bonding with people. Showing resilience and coaching as a leader is the best way to lead sustainably teams and even more so build strong teams. I had a great connections with my Buddy during the program, from whom I gained great insights and learnings which I could apply during the program in real business life.
