IESE/Wharton Joint Program – Business Strategy and Operational Execution: Bridging the Divide
Two of ACI’s long-time partners, IESE and Wharton, have joined together to present a unique and innovative course for Senior Executives. Business Strategy & Operational Execution: Bridging the Divide joins faculty from both institutions. Participants will explore and understand strategy execution, operational excellence, marketing metrics, and change management. The course focuses on understanding the factors that create value for their organization in a global setting.
Executives will study:
-Strategic planning from concept through implementation
-Innovation through different business models
-Identifying beneficial trends in the global marketplace
-Calculating the lifetime value of customers
-Preparing a company for growth
-Effectively leading cross-cultural teams
Companies are encouraged to send cross-functional teams of Executives to participate. Teams typically consist of Executives with 15 or more years of experience who are responsible for strategy, business development, innovation, R&D, product development, sales and marketing, mergers and acquisitions, or finance. Often these executives lead across cultural boundaries in a wide range of industries.
The first half of the course takes place in San Francisco, and the second in New York City. The first week focuses on technology and competition in the digital age. A highlight of this portion of the course is a visit to the Google offices. The second week focuses on operations and strategy, and includes a visit to a major media company. The San Francisco segment takes place from June 22-27, 2014, and the New York City segment takes place from September 15-19, 2014. It is mandatory to attend both segments. The total cost for the course is $21,000.
