Custom Program Approach
http://www.scu.edu/business/edc/programs/custom.cfm
“Our custom programs meet the interests and needs of executive and senior management teams, both technical and non-technical, and are congruent with the client company’s aspirations, concerns and practices. The University’s close ties to Silicon Valley also ensure that our high quality business faculty members have a solid understanding of the unique issues faced by technology-based companies. In our 40 years of executive education experience, we have discovered the best learning environment is away from the hectic, distraction-prone environment of the participant’s office. Thus, the majority of these programs are offered on the campus of Santa Clara University….
Sample Topics for Custom Programs:
* Systems-thinking
* Leadership challenges and skills
* Marketing strategy: delivering customer value
* Financial strategy: tools for strategic analysis
* Building, leading and maintaining a team
* Implementing strategy: creating a high performing organization
* Managing across Functional Boundaries
* Building and Sustaining Corporate Culture
* Product Development”
