No. Professionals who are new to leadership or people management may find programmes such as Learning to Lead more appropriate as that programme focuses on the fundamentals of leading others for the first time.
-
Is this programme suitable for senior leaders or executives?
-
No. This programme is designed for early‑ to mid‑career professionals with 3 - 6 years of leadership experience. Leaders with extensive senior or executive‑level experience may find the programme too foundational and are encouraged to explore INSEAD’s senior leadership offerings.
