I have to say that the program far surpassed my expectations.
It was a culturally rich experience in which people from very diverse backgrounds met, worked, learned and thrived together.
The faculty was outstanding and organizational aspects of the program were exemplary.
It was a very timely learning opportunity for me as I was beginning to face a whole variety of management issues. I was particularly impressed by the quality and enthusiasm of faculty who kept me fully engaged despite long session hours. My learning will continue after the program with the initial task of refining and implementing my 100-day action plan.
"Exploring Japan’s Coolness" is a very unique topic and one that differentiates this program from other global executive programs.
We studied the key characteristics of Japanese long-lived companies through a field trip to an 150-year old sake brewery.
These characteristics offer strong learning points that are important for us to focus on.
This topic should definitely be retained for the benefit of future participants.
The HIMAX simulation is extremely useful in that it provides great opportunities to think, strategize, plan, make and correct mistakes, and build and sustain teamwork. It is a wonderful practical tool to train up managers. It made us realize there is no such thing as born managerial talent, every business needs various skills, strategies as well as teamwork, and never to risk one’s own company. I love it!
The program was extremely valuable to both my personal and professional growth. The concepts and guiding principles learned during the program have changed the way I approach my day-to-day and long-term business activities. Also, it was truly a multi-cultural experience, enabling me to establish friendships and global business relationships with like-minded professionals.
