Executive education may be conducted as highly interactive “open enrollment” seminars for groups in the 30-75 person range or customized programs for executives ranging from the most senior leaders to mid-level managers. These sessions may be held as in-house leadership programs, modules in University programs (e.g., Duke CE, Darden or Babson) and/or custom programs designed for specific concerns of a target audience.
If you are interested in conducting a network analysis within your own organization and applying the findings to strategic issues or groups (with the option of including personal network results), then a retreat or a strategic planning workshop would be the most appropriate forum. The combination of discussing the network analysis results as a group and in small breakouts results in a set of actions that support the organization’s strategic direction as well as craft a network capable of supporting its’ strategic goals.
