The Financial Times and Cambridge Judge Business School have announced a new strategy programme for mid-to-senior level executives featuring FT journalists and Cambridge Judge faculty. The collaboration marks the first partnership by the FT with an open executive education programme at a business school.
The inaugural Cambridge and Financial Times Strategy Programme will run for eight weeks from 28 October 2024. The course aims to elevate senior executives' leadership and strategic skills; it will focus on topics ranging from leveraging strategic assets and resource allocation to strategic positioning and managing organisational change.
The online programme includes instruction by Cambridge Judge faculty focusing on pragmatic business application complemented by Cambridge case studies, and three live webinars featuring specialist FT journalists on the important topics of sustainability, artificial intelligence and geopolitics.
The programme offers individuals practical skills, enhanced strategic thinking and up-to-date knowledge on industry developments through access to FT.com for the programme’s duration and 12 months’ access to the FT Future Forum, which brings senior executives together to exchange best practices and expertise.
Director, FT Group, Angela Mackay said: “The collaboration between Cambridge Judge Business School and the Financial Times brings together two influential global brands aligned by a common purpose: to educate, inform and empower business leaders. Our collaboration will help individuals become more effective business leaders with the knowledge to make impactful contributions to their organisations and society.”
Interim dean of Cambridge Judge Business School, Professor Gishan Dissanaike said: “The Cambridge and Financial Times Strategy Programme combines practical strategy backed by academic research with newsworthy issues that are affecting business around the globe.”
