Promoting INSEAD´s principle of life-long learning, the INSEAD Board (IN-BOARD) Initiative is an executive education program for our alumni who are involved in or aspire to play a role on boards of directors or advisory boards – from small & medium sized enterprises (SMEs) to listed corporations. The Initiative has been launched with great success by the Dutch and German INSEAD Alumni Associations, and we are proud to now bring it to Switzerland as well.
The kick-off weekend on campus in Fontainebleau will introduce IN-BOARD participants from the different alumni associations to board dynamics and effectiveness and will include a full day of leadership development coaching, led by INSEAD Professor Erik van de Loo.
Local modules on Legal, Strategy, HR and Accounting/Finance related issues will be offered separately by top-level professional service firms in a series of Zurich-based workshops, tailored specifically to the Swiss corporate environment.
Syllabus:
- Board Dynamics module at INSEAD in Fontainebleau November 29 – Dec 1 2013
