We invite you to phone or e-mail us to outline your organization's desired outcomes and the timeline for your program. We arrange a conversation, usually by phone, with a custom program director to further understand your business challenges and determine whether your needs match our capabilities.
Senior executives and human resources representatives from your organization are encouraged to visit MIT Sloan to meet with faculty who are likely to teach in the program and the executive education directors who will manage the program. During the meeting, we discuss your business goals and organizational challenges, as well as your requirements, proposed participants, and desired outcomes for the program.
After the meeting, we prepare a preliminary proposal for your review. The proposal outlines suggested curriculum topics, program structure, potential faculty, delivery methods, recommended location, timing, and fees. We work together with you to refine the proposal until an agreement is reached.
Once we have an agreement, a faculty director and executive education program director are assigned to your program. Faculty review detailed company information and conduct interviews with management in your organization in order to understand the challenges facing your organization. On occasion, program faculty will travel to your site to better understand your business and meet prospective participants and program sponsors.
After collecting all the necessary company information, the faculty and program directors refine the curriculum and delivery methodologies and engage additional faculty members to teach in the program. Throughout the design process, we work collaboratively with your team to ensure the program meets your expectations and addresses your needs.
The program is delivered by the faculty team to participants selected by your organization. All programs are taught by full-time MIT Sloan faculty, the same faculty who teach in our top-rated MBA and MIT Sloan Fellows programs.
Throughout the program and at its conclusion, we collect feedback and suggestions from participants, company sponsors and administrators, and faculty. The comments are analyzed and recommendations shared with all parties. If possible, real-time adjustments are made during the program.
Based on the program experience and feedback, as well as any new company or industry information available, the program is revised and updated for future sessions.
Participants come to MIT Sloan from around the globe to experience MIT Sloan’s laboratory of management innovation.
