Executive Program in Strategy and Organization
Effectively diagnose and solve problems using proven frameworks for executing change in this multidisciplinary strategic management course.
Through pioneering multidisciplinary research from Stanford GSB faculty, you’ll learn how to think strategically for your organization, its culture, and the environment in which you compete.
Experience two academically rigorous weeks packed with lectures, exercises, case studies, discussion groups, talks with Silicon Valley executives, and visits from other notable guest speakers.
At Stanford, we focus on frameworks that help you think in new ways about the strategic challenges and opportunities you face. Rather than getting a checklist of best practices, you’ll come away with the skills you need in order to create powerful, winning action plans.
You’ll gain insight into why certain strategies work and others fail. And you’ll explore cutting-edge research on human motivation and economic incentives, game theory, and the role of power and influence. It’s a unique opportunity to learn things you won’t find in the news or in business books, and to see how researchers and your fellow executives look at business to spark new ideas.
