MIT Sloan Fellows Program in Innovation and Global Leadership

For High-Potential Managers

Transcending boundaries
MIT Sloan created the Sloan Fellows Program in Innovation and Global Leadership to give today's general managers — or those preparing to move into general management positions — an extraordinary platform for growth.

As Sloan Fellows, they have an incomparable opportunity to build the wisdom, skills, and confidence necessary to lead their organizations through complex challenges.

They learn how to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks associated with innovation. And they discover the key to generating motivated, productive teams across functions — and nations.

Where the best minds converge
The MIT Sloan Fellows Program brings together 90 to 100 of the most talented managers in the world today to learn up-to-the-minute best practice from those who practice it best. They have access to some of the greatest global leaders of our age and develop close working bonds with the program's renowned faculty, who are among the top echelon of experts in their fields.

The program gives participants an extensive depth and breadth of skills, information, and opportunities to intensively investigate topics of specific professional interest. The research requirement (a management research project or thesis) is a rare chance to drill deep and develop workable solutions to real company challenges.

Building global networks
One of the most distinctive innovations of the MIT Sloan Fellows Program is the unparalleled opportunity for building a global network that transcends industry or geography. The program strategically brings together general managers, technologists, and entrepreneurs from all over the world. After working together in this invigorating, collaborative environment, they gain invaluable cross-functional insights only possible in such a format, and they leave the program with an external perspective and a powerful international network.

With these critical advantages, MIT Sloan Fellows go on to become key contributors to MIT's legacy of pathbreaking leadership. And they join the roster of MIT Sloan alumni who have gone on to hold top positions of leadership in organizations around the world.
