Difficult times require outstanding leaders. Columbia Business School Executive Education programs can help you develop the leadership and interpersonal skills you need to succeed in insecure environments and successfully manage staff and cross-functional teams for maximum performance through times of change.
In an unpredictable economy, true leaders make the best possible decisions, even under tremendous pressure. A highly practical two-week program, Transition to General Management demonstrates how general managers become leaders, prepared to take on greater responsibilities.
An incomparable 26-day experience of intellectual, personal and professional discovery and growth, The Columbia Senior Executive Program is focused on providing you the tools, insights and the ambitious learning environment necessary to maximize your potential as a leader within your organization.
When organizations become leaner, executives must have a broader knowledge base. A two-week program, Columbia Essentials of Management delivers critical business foundations in strategy, marketing and finance—always with an emphasis on leadership effectiveness.
Strong leadership defines the success of an organization during recessionary times. High Impact Leadership provides a profound understanding of how you are perceived as a leader, and enables you to develop an action plan to lead others to improved performance.
In just two days, Leadership Essentials strengthens leadership abilities in such critical areas as team leadership, emotional intelligence, conflict management and managing change—issues that organizations are facing more often, and more intensely, during the recession.
As organizations stretch to meet the demands of today’s economic climate, negotiations take on an ever more importance. Negotiation and Decision-Making Strategies allows executives the opportunity to learn to negotiate more effectively with various parties, from clients to internal constituencies.
Mastery of persuasive skills can add tremendous value to one’s executive profile in a competitive marketplace. Persuasion: Influencing Without Authority covers the range of interpersonal and intergroup persuasion challenges, focusing on practical skills and immediate application to participants’ real-world situations.
Becoming an effective leader during challenging times requires a solid foundation—not just in organizational structure and business functions, but also in self-awareness.
