A unique programme to hone the strengths of family businesses as innovators and change agents in the global economy.
To achieve and sustain long-term, meaningful tenure, families must be equipped to lead across five levels of influence. Via a powerful mix of research-based teaching and live case studies from leading business families, the programme takes current and future business owners on a journey towards impact that outlasts any one organisation.
We leverage three unique perspectives:
Through a considered mix of experiential and course-based learning, you'll be encouraged to understand the ‘why’ behind family ownership, and identify higher-impact means of ‘how’ to own, now and in future.
Family business owners value the experiences of their peers. We pair world-class academic content with guest speakers from some of the world’s largest family businesses. Contributors to the programme may vary with each cohort as we tailor speakers to learning objectives. We lean into, rather than avoid, controversies in responsible ownership topics. Through this, we equip participants with the analytic abilities necessary for their futures as owners.
The programme allows participants a rare opportunity to reflect on why they’re running their businesses, and map that to action.
Our teaching is based on research from The Ownership Project, led by Professor Peter Tufano, current Dean of Oxford Saïd, and our former Dean, Professor Colin Mayer CBE FBA.
Starting with family firms, we investigate how ownership influences the endurance, value, conduct and stakeholder relationships in corporations.
The programme is open to current and future leaders of a family-owned business established over at least two generations.
