Overview

 

In a world that is changing continuously and at a rapid pace, with implications at all levels - economic, political, socio-demographic - intertwining with digital transformation and the development of artificial intelligence, top managers find themselves facing increasingly complex and multifaceted challenges.

In this context, to stay relevant and drive positive change, it becomes essential for them to broaden their perspectives and approach the new challenges from unique angles, redefining their leadership skills and influencing abilities.

Through the contributions of highly prominent speakers, SDA Bocconi’s new Global Leaders Program engages participants into economically and geopolitically significant topics that are central to the contemporary discourse, at the same time focusing on the most pressing managerial issues related to digital and sustainable transformations.

The program draws its strength from the combination of robust managerial knowledge and one-to-one interactions with peers in other industries, creating a diverse ecosystem that engages senior executives in a high-profile multicultural network. Equally integral to the program is the opportunity to immerse in the culture and environment of Italian excellence, by directly experiencing realms of excellence in art, culture, design, and fashion.

 

 

Target

The program is for a selected pool of top executives from around the world who spent significant time in the role of senior managers, entrepreneurs, or company officers in leading organizations.

The goal is to build a diverse, inclusive, and high-profile learning experience.
