I love being immersed in the community that the Management Acceleration Programme brings together. It is incredibly diverse and yet bound by a shared intent. They are all emerging leaders. They are facing delicate transitions in their professional and personal lives. They all hope to craft careers and life trajectories that are both successful and meaningful. And they are eager to share a learning journey with supportive peers, and with the INSEAD faculty and coaches. I am inspired by the participants’ commitment to acquire new knowledge, to examine the ways they think and act, and to learn from and with each other – ultimately, to become the best managers and leaders they can be.

To me, this is a uniquely powerful programme because it not only allows participants to acquire knowledge and skills that are critical for leaders today, but it also provides a space for them to learn how to use that knowledge and those skills in an authentic and personal way. It is a privilege for me to be there to help guide them through the programme; A programme that is often truly transformational for those who decide to join.

What makes the Management Acceleration Programme special is the depth and breadth of the developmental journey that unfolds over the programme. Participants make great strides towards their career and personal goals. They gain the knowledge and skills to work confidently across functional and national boundaries, and form valuable bonds with a global community that spans industries and continents. The insights, tools and connections the Management Acceleration Programme equips them with, help participants be authentic and effective leaders in their organisations and communities once they return home.

Bluebell Cambodia - Brand & Marketing Manager THE PEAK Phnom Penh, Cambodia
I am one of only very few Cambodian nationals to have passed through an INSEAD programme and it’s a huge privilege and a source of pride to me to have represented my home country within the cohort. Going to INSEAD, completing this programme and bringing the benefits of this kind of world-class learning back to my country—it feels like winning the lottery.

It really takes you outside of your comfort zone and provides you with a much greater perspective of how each functional area fits together. Gaining this perspective helps advance your potential to be a better manager and leader.

The focus on the leadership skills helps you explore your personal life and your goals as a person. In addition to that, the functional business skills that you develop on the programme can create concrete assets you can bring back to your organisation and implement. It is a very rounded programme."
Manuel Pincetti
Director | Monitor Deloitte – Strategy Consulting Milan, Italy
"It gave me the opportunity to take a step back, reflect and see things more clearly. It was three weeks of self-reflection with faculty who know how to bring the best out in people. This is not something that happens every day...It really was an amazing experience that gave me the skills, knowledge, language and tools to make a difference in my work."
