Explore the five essential attributes of excellent CEOs in an unparalleled programme There are other programmes designed for business leaders. None are quite like this. INSEAD AVIRA is a unique opportunity for business leaders from around the world to put aside the urgent in order to consider the important. It gives them a forum for exploring and debating the current issues most prominent on their agenda. More concretely, INSEAD AVIRA is designed to explore the five critical dimensions of the CEO's role: Awareness,Vision, Imagination, Responsibility, and Action.

This Insead programme gives executives five days to take a close look at not just their business, but also their relationship with "stakeholders", to explore responsibilities and to reflect on their personal life. It gives them a week to ask themselves those questions perhaps others rarely -- or dare not -- ask them, and that with the pressure of business, they may not often ask themselves....

Leadership and management proficiency is essential for organisational success in the 21st century and this programme has been designed to help you, as a leader, critique and recognise your own leadership and management style and its impact on organisational performance. 

As a leader you will also need to lead a team and your team will be as individual as you, with their own strengths and weaknesses.  As a leader you have to motivate them, build them into cohesive teams and develop them by effective delegation.  At the same time you will have to manage the organisational policies, procedures and processes.  Even the best designed systems can fail without factoring in the people element.  ...

The practical nature of our course means that our students apply the concepts and management techniques learned in class directly to their workplace. As an MBA student you will gain the knowledge and skills to become an effective leader and manager within your organisation.

The Graduate Certificate in Business Administration is effectively one-third of the MBA program and allows professionals to update their skills and acquire in-depth knowledge of selected core business disciplines or interdisciplinary areas....

There is an increasing orientation for corporate business process and organisation to revolve around projects. Companies strive to differentiate themselves and reduce delivery cycle time. These changes put project management sharply into focus. The traditional, technical view of project management will not bring about the transformational change that organisations require.

The course is run jointly by the Faculty of Health and Social Care and Bristol Business School, and draws on the expertise of a wide range of academics and practitioners.The programme provides students with a comprehensive grounding in managing within the turbulent and changing context of the public services. This requires students to consider policy changes and the wider socio-political and economic contexts in which these occur, the resulting impact on professional roles, internal organisational dynamics and the management of change within and between public service organisations.A changing policy and organisation context has created the need for managers to manage in an increasingly complex and uncertain environment.
