TUCK-WBENC Executive Program

Brought to you by IBM
 


October 5-10, 2008

IBM conference facility in Palisades, NY

 

The program is a five day intensive executive development program for WBENC-certified women business enterprises (WBEs). This general management program is designed to help WBEs that are beyond the startup phase to assess, improve and grow their businesses. To survive and prosper in today's fast-moving, highly volatile business climate, WBEs must ensure they have all the essential components of a business in place-and highly integrated such as:

  • Clear and focused strategy
  • Superior value
  • Optimal core business processes
  • Motivated & empowered staff
  • Carefully managed relationships for long-term success

This five-day program helps WBEs achieve these objectives. It is an intensive learning experience that focuses primarily on increasing the competitive advantage and robustness of the participant's own business. The 50 WBE attendees will form a learning community that will continue to provide a source of support, expertise, opportunities, and strategic alliances long after graduation.

Tuck is the nation's oldest graduate school of business and renowned for the quality of its teaching and the degree to which it fosters collaborative learning, inclusion, and community. It is designed to make a big difference in how owners think about and operate their businesses when they return from the program. The primary case study is the participant's own business. Collaborative learning groups apply the tools they have learned to assess and improve their businesses, using the same diagnostic and strategy-implementation approaches that external consultants would use.

Who Should Attend

Applicants must be WBENC-certified owners with three to five years of experience running a business and have $300,000+ in annual sales.
