SDA Bocconi School of Management (ranked #4 World Wide for Executive Education custom programs) and Babson College (ranked #1 school in Entrepreneurship education for 26 consecutive years) have joined their efforts to launch an exclusive and prestigious three day program in MIAMI that will engage participants in a deep dive on how leaders of luxury brands manage complexity, innovate, and push the boundaries of their industries.
The program will also explore the nuances of how innovative luxury brands leave enduring and indelible experiences for their customers, generating insights on cultural change, drivers and directions of growth, managing creativity and creating brand vision. It will provide a platform for executives to review and rethink their own market standards and strategies, looking at how to further develop and integrate ideas in the luxury business.
The program is taught by two world renowned professors in the field of Entrepreneurial Leadership & Luxury Innovation: Professor Gabriella Lojacono*, from SDA Bocconi and Professor Jay Rao**, from Babson College.
"The Luxury industry has dramatically changed in recent decades, by going through continued revolutions in digital technologies, international markets, and consumer trends." says Lojacono. That's why "great luxury brands' entrepreneurial leaders and innovators routinely change the game by going from clutter to clarity and getting signal from noise." concludes Rao.

She is the author of numerous books (Italian Beauty, Winning with Ideas, Made in Italy Industries) and articles on the subject of luxury and design as well as strategy.
