Oxford Executive Strategy Programme

Saïd Business School

Corporate Governance

About Programme

Working environments are becoming increasingly uncertain and traditional approaches to business strategy are no longer sufficient. The highly practical Oxford Executive Strategy Programme uses rich global case studies to engage with new concepts, directly associating the theory to practical application.

Designed for business leaders and senior managers responsible for creating and driving strategic objectives within their organisation. The programme will provide you with tools to better prepare for the future and tackle the nuances of contemporary business management.

This programme is delivered in partnership with GetSmarter , a 2U brand. When you enrol, you’ll be directed to their platform, which manages registration and course delivery on our behalf, as an official and trusted Oxford Saïd partner.

Professor of Strategic Management

There is much to be gained by both companies and by the economy as a whole, from professionalising the practice of strategy. Strategy is changing... making new demands upon its practitioners... and we must support practitioners in honing these skills.
