The program

Executive Master's in Leadership

Organizations change as they grow and develop. Sometimes, this change is planned and caused by internal forces, but events and outside influences can also provoke it.

The need for organizations to understand and deal with these changes, constantly following them and adapting requires an innovation culture, (re)definition of strategy capabilities, negotiation, alignment, and mobilization of the whole. These capacities are fundamentally stimulated by leadership.
