Senior responsibility is exercised in specific, practised moments: the negotiation that sets the terms of a deal, the decision made without full information, the conversation that holds a team accountable. This category develops the practical executive skillset, negotiation discipline in particular, that senior managers and executives rely on in those moments.

What this category covers

  • Advanced negotiation strategy and tactics
  • Executive decision-making and judgement
