Cambridge Judge Business School
This three-week general management and leadership programme (the ALP) gives seasoned senior executives the opportunity to step back and focus time on themselves in a learning environment second to none. Aside from refreshing their thinking and fine-tuning their leadership agenda, participants will grow from discussions with top faculty members from Cambridge Judge Business School and the wider University of Cambridge.
- Cambridge Judge Business School is the business school of the University of Cambridge. The School is a provider of management education and is consistently ranked as one of the world's top business schools, with the Cambridge MBA programme ranked among the top in the world by Bloomberg, the Financial Times, BusinessInsider, US News & World Report and Forbes Magazine. It is named after Sir Paul Judge, a founding benefactor of the school. The School is considered to be particularly strong in entrepreneurship and innovation management, with its own accelerator[4] and close ties with Cambridge Enterprise, the university's technology transfer office, as well as with the local high-tech cluster known as the Silicon Fen. The School is situated on the site of the Old Addenbrooke's Site on Trumpington Street, near the Fitzwilliam Museum.
- An ALP is only as good as the quality of its own participants. Selection for the Cambridge ALP is therefore taken very seriously, and a stringent process ensures the group of people selected is homogeneous in their objectives and experience. Each prospective candidate should complete an application form available on these webpages. A phone meeting will be set up between the Director of the ALP and each applicant. A decision on each application will be made within one week. Typical participants will be: Managing directors and heads of business units. With at least two years' experience in this position and P&L responsibility, they will make up the majority of the group. They can be working within small, medium and large organisations in the public or private sector. We welcome executives from the non-profit sector. Heads of corporate functions - contributors to the strategy of the organisation. Individuals who have made a difference - they may be entrepreneurs, academics or individual contributors. They should be outstanding in their area and bring a different viewpoint to the group.
- A refreshed leadership mindset – the red line throughout the three weeks IS leadership and cuts through the challenges and opportunities of today’s senior executives
‘Time out’ – it is not often that you have space just for yourself, without the demands of the office and family. The Cambridge ALP helps you step back and take stock of your professional and personal life.
Immersion in cutting edge thinking with leading thinkers, combined with magisterial experience from seasoned leaders from diverse backgrounds. The programme benefits enormously from a multidisciplinary approach to learning.
Networking – with other senior executives individually selected for admission. The time spent together is long enough (yet shorter than many other advanced management programmes) to help you make friends and colleagues for life, a group who can call on each other long after the programme. On completing the Cambridge Advanced Leadership Programme you will be eligible to become an associate member of Cambridge Judge Business School’s global network of graduates and business-focused University of Cambridge alumni, faculty and staff.
An international perspective – participants and faculty come from all over the world. In the last session of the ALP, 14 nationalities were represented in the class.
