Prepare Yourself to Break Through.

The Pharma Executive Program (PEP) is a challenging four-week advanced management program designed for pharmaceutical executives ready and eager to make a breakthrough in their professional and personal lives. Six senior faculty members, working closely together, pool their expertise to ensure that each participant leaves PEP with a vastly more sophisticated way of viewing the world. Our goal is to inspire your creativity, to nurture your ability to think in multiple dimensions, and to stimulate a lifelong commitment to learning and continuous improvement. These qualities will enable you to create value for your company, while gaining more satisfaction from your career.

Step Up to an Enterprise Perspective.

PEP is firmly based in the challenges that face modern organizations. The overall framework includes strategy, leadership, and change. We also introduce participants to cutting-edge practice in the functional areas of marketing, operations, technology management, and finance. At the same time, we weave a series of relevant themes through the entire four-week program. They include managing in a global context; value creation at the Enterprise and individual levels; developing a strategic and entrepreneurial mindset; design of business processes, systems and networks; and developing a market orientation; to drive these points home, we make extensive use of cases based on actual business situations.

Make Every Minute Count.

Every moment of PEP has been planned to deliver real value to participants. The tightly integrated curriculum gains in complexity and momentum as the program moves forward, yet participants are afforded ample time for thinking, reflecting, and strategizing. By forming small task-oriented teams, we ensure that you benefit from the diversity of experiences and perspectives that your fellow participants bring to the program.

Who Should Attend?

Who Should Attend? The Executive Program is intended for experienced managers and executives who have attained, or are about to attain, significant general management responsibilities and who are interested in being part of an engaging educational experience. In addition, participants generally should:

• Have demonstrated significant leadership capabilities and the potential for further development.
• Have approximately 12 years of more of managerial experience.
• Be sponsored by their organizations and have the endorsement of senior management to attend.

Typically, PEP participants are individuals who are senior functional/staff managers or newly-appointed general managers in large organizations; members of the top management group in medium-sized companies; or owners or top executives of emerging companies. Participation by more than one representative from an organization is strongly encouraged. It is our experience that when two or more participants from the same organization attend, they gain a beneficial common base for implementing new ideas and, upon returning, can challenge, stimulate, and reinforce each other.
