As a participant in the GLP program, you join with an outstanding group of peers from around the world. Classes are organized in teams that work together throughout the sessions on projects and presentations. Students wrestle with challenges in detailed case studies of various industries and use computer simulations to understand how various marketing strategies play out in differing scenarios and their effects on value creation. And even though the class may end each day, the learning continues in group dinners and late-night discussions.
Building Teams
The GLP program offers the perfect environment for strengthening corporate teams. Companies are strongly encouraged to send several members from one department or even managers from several areas of the firm. In return for the investment of sending more than one executive manager at a time, the company will receive a leadership team with new ideas, solid enthusiasm and the conviction to put the ideas learned in the classroom into action.

“By sending a team, we were able to get more than one perspective on issues. The case studies we've all worked on have yielded immediate application to some of our own work situations and now my team members know how to go and apply them. We've developed a shared experience and a common language.”
