Strategic Management & Governance

How prepared are you, as a manager or leader, to represent an organisation at the most senior levels? Could you recognise and apply the principles of good corporate governance? Are you confident in your understanding of the broader critical issues of governance, compliance and corporate social responsibility, and how to apply this thinking to a global business strategy for the organisation?

The King’s Strategic Management & Governance Programme enables this strategic leadership mindset, empowering executives to operate confidently at a senior level with internal partners and external stakeholders
