Leadership matters to everyone. Whether you are developing your own leadership skills now or aspiring to become a leader someday, learning what leadership is, how it is changing in the modern world, what is distinctive about it in the context of the Middle East and of the KSA, and how to acquire the mindset that allows your leadership capabilities to continue to expand and improve throughout your life are the goals of this flagship MBSC Advanced Leadership Program.

This advanced leadership program is an opportunity to learn how to lead with impact and an entrepreneurial mindset. It is for people who are already leading departments/organizations, or for those who want to explore the transition into more strategic roles within their organizations, who have a flair to improve themselves, empower people around them, grow their organization, or just succeed in the competitive environment. It has been designed for those with a drive to lead with confidence and achieve high performance and those who want to lead their own entrepreneurial ventures, whether stand-alone start-ups or ventures, inside larger organizations.

The program allows a space to discover inherent strengths and harness new skills, including the entrepreneurial mindset, and for connecting with like-minded leaders towards self-actualization and organizational success. The program will change you to be more strategic, innovative, and more motivated.
