Global Leadership in the Cloud
CAPRESE is supporting IMD in developing and delivering their new program offering, Being Innovative, which is a new type of distance-learning: “Global Leadership in the Cloud”.
With this approach, you do all of your learning and directly apply the concepts to your daily work, right from your own desk without having to travel and at low cost – a truly leading-edge alternative to traditional management development programs. The program brochure Being Innovative provides further information.
In the role of Program Coach, CAPRESE’s Dr. Joyce Miller, accompanies you over an 8-week Learning Journey where you gain the tools to navigate in a world of increasing change and uncertainty by mastering new approaches for thinking about innovation and crafting better strategy.
Each weekly module:
- Introduces you to a new tool or framework designed to deepen your insights and skills to develop innovative capabilities in yourself and others
- Enables you to tap into the diverse perspectives and experiences of other participants (through “group work” or “buddy” assignments)
- Gives you an opportunity to directly apply the tools and concepts to your daily work (through an “individual assignment, backed up with video input from IMD’s Professor of Innovation Bill Fischer, together with targeted readings as additional resources)
- Offers a framework for you to crystallize the relevant points for yourself (through the use of an online Personal Learning Journal)
- Uses an innovative “video” format to provide feedback from the Program Coach on your individual assignment, designed to stretch your thinking even further!
The program wraps up with a powerful consolidating challenge, which gives you a roadmap for innovation (through a Final Assignment, where you identify and develop an innovative idea, including 60-day Implementation Plan to assure its success!)
Joyce and Bill offer a live webinar under the title "Office Hours", in which they address questions submitted by participants
The 2015 programs launch on April 27 and September 14
As IMD Coach, Joyce would be delighted to discuss how Being Innovative could support you in your personal and professional development objectives and facilitate your application to the program. Just get in contact !
