Build the capabilities to lead across national and international boundaries

As today’s business landscape becomes increasingly global, organisations need leaders who can operate effectively from anywhere in the world. Securing an international advantage requires executives capable of rapidly adapting to an ever-evolving, highly competitive global marketplace, mastering cross-cultural relationships and creating winning strategies that integrate both local and global perspectives.

Leading Across Borders and Cultures is designed to provide a highly practical perspective on one of today’s most pressing business issues: how to lead in a complex, cross-border, multicultural environment.

The programme presents a comprehensive approach to building the capabilities you need to lead across national and international boundaries. An immersive five-day learning experience, it will allow you to explore the skillsets of successful global leaders and discover what it takes to build a cohesive global team, negotiate international deals and lead at scale. You will learn to bridge cultural gaps, transform differences into assets and ultimately create exceptional value for your organisation.

How you benefit

• Learn to lead across global organisations
• Develop the skills to manage virtual teams
• Improve your ability to negotiate and motivate internationally
• Understand cultural influences and develop strategies for working successfully across the world.
