 " The structure of the programme; the limited number of participant places, the calibre of an international faculty, the opportunity to access University of Oxford leaders in other fields outside the course programme and the informal interactions that occur over lunch and dinner, all combined to develop me as an individual, and have broadened my self awareness and leadership style."
Neil Brennan, Managing Director, Central Highlands Water Corporation, Australia |
Who are the other participants?
The make-up of participants has changed markedly. The business world is not just experiencing a recession; we have reached a tipping point where the traditionally rich countries are going to have to find a new equilibrium with developing economies. The OAMLP facilities discussions on this subject, and you will work alongside participants from both public and private sectors spanning all regions to debate first hand experiences – these sessions give you much deeper appreciation and insight of the issues presented.
As a participant you will benefit at several levels. You will leave with a better understanding of your organisation, the challenges you must address and a commitment to focused action plans for continued development. The personal tutorial element is a firm fixture within the programme and contact with tutors after the programme is strongly encouraged.
How will it benefit me?
Participants from this programme have typically repositioned themselves within their organisation, gained instant promotions and have developed working sustainable strategies to navigate their changing global business landscape. Many of our alumni warmly welcome the opportunity to share their development experience with you, and each story has a successful testament to this type of development process.
OAMLP is not built on a bullet-point approach; it embraces the true Oxford philosophy of ‘intelligent thinking’. It is about new ideas & insights to provoke questions & thoughts while immersing oneself within a transformational development experience.
Participants on our June 2009 programme said they experienced a big personal change in themselves which is core to their development here in Oxford - and the beginning of their learning journey.
We invite you to experience this programme for yourself and start your learning journey this year.
