"Designing a program is a creative process: exhilarating and agonizing. We pull together a team of experienced faculty who work with the client‘s senior executives. We always ask ourselves what we‘d ask of the participants in the program: what will this - reading, exercise, discussion - mean for their organization? What can we do to help them ‘get it’?"
