Learning from The Guru...

“A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject…” - Winston Churchill


Twenty of us attended Harvard Executive Program ‘The General Manager as Strategist and Implementer’ at The Saujana.

The Program was facilitated by Prof. David A. Garvin from the Harvard Business School. The 1-day program was designed to improve the skills of senior executives in the private and public sectors confronted with difficult, demanding challenges and changing environments.

The main takeaways include enabling the participants to refine our ability to make decisions, identify problems and pathologies, assess the effectiveness of our teams, evaluate the learning cultures of our organizations and design a change management process, and act more effectively and decisively.

There were more that 100 senior executives from diverse line of trades. Our organization sent the highest number of participants as this program is related to the organisation’s leadership competencies, in particular strategic insights and drive for excellence, which are critical in the leadership development.
