Attended: Finance for Executives

I'm genuinely excited to deploy the analytical tools I've gained, and I know precisely where to probe. Most importantly, I now have the language and confidence to engage effectively with my finance partners.

CEO Bloemendal Consults B.V.

Attended: Advanced Management Programme

“The Advanced Management Programme takes you out of the workplace and gives you the chance to really stop, put away your phone, turn off emails and work on yourself as a leader and as a person. It can be exhausting – from yoga at six am to drinks with your peers in the bar till midnight! But it is worth it, and it is so important to go all in and give it your everything. Because that is when you emerge as a far better version of yourself, with the ability to make meaningful change.”

Hend El Agamy

Vice President, Legal, Madinet Masr

Attended: Women Leaders Programme

INSEAD's reputation was certainly a factor, but what truly attracted me was the focus on leadership as a human journey.

Change is intensifying in speed and volume, so the heat is really on us to remain cutting edge in skill development and pedagogy—so that our clients, be they organisations or individuals, can maintain their cutting edge too.

Karel Cool, co-director of the new INSEAD Business Sustainability Programme shares his belief that executives need to view sustainability as a win-win business opportunity – creating competitive advantage while doing good by society. With a personal passion for the field of research, and many years of experience in developing strategies and frameworks for companies transforming their business models, Professor Cool is enthusiastic to continue educating executives on this crucial subject matter.

Regional Director, The Americas at INSEAD Executive Education

The INSEAD-Cargill partnership has been one of those rare and gratifying collaborations that resulted in a true synergy of purpose and talents to achieve ambitious objectives. The results of our partnership speak to the impact the Catalyst experience has had across the entire organisation. Our partnership achieved one of the objectives Cargill stipulated from the start which was that Catalyst shouldn’t really end, but instead ignite continuous learning as participants “pay it forward” to others. We are honoured that our work together on the Catalyst program has supported a shift in the way Cargill’s leaders think and talk about their business.
