THE WBS LEARNING EXPERIENCELearning on the IEDP is highly interactive, and is case

so that delegates can learn as much as possible from
each other. You will also learn about yourself by being
challenged to examine the assumptions you may have
previously used when taking decisions and leading
people.
EXECUTIVE COACHING SESSIONSEach delegate will have a number of coaching sessions
with a dedicated executive coach. This helps translate
the knowledge acquired and skills gained when back
at work.
LONDON BUSINESS SCHOOLLondon Business School has built an extraordinary
reputation, founded on the rigour of their faculty’s
research and the excellence of its teaching. The School
is consistently ranked as one of the top business schools
in the world. At London Business School you will be part
of a community that provides challenging, international
and highly enjoyable experiences. Delegates will stay
on the campus of London Business School near the
beautiful Regent’s Park area of London. Find out more
about the London Business School at www.london.edu
The most compelling reason for attending the IEDP is to advance your career and enhance your effectiveness as an
executive. Knowledge is both power and exciting. Our interactive style of teaching not only encourages delegates to
debate the pertinent issues but also stimulates a wide range of views based on the collective experience of those in the
room. You as a delegate will have the opportunity to reflect on how you do things now and how you should do them
in the future to be successful.

OUR STRATEGIC PLANS GOING FORWARD.

I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THE IEDP WILL CONTRIBUTE
POSITIVELY IN MY CAREER. THE INSIGHT THAT THIS COURSE
HAS GIVEN ME HAS ENHANCED MY SELF-AWARENESS AND
CONFIDENCE. THE COURSE HAS BROADENED MY THINKING.
HAVING RE-ENTERED THE WORK PLACE I ALREADY FIND
MYSELF ADDRESSING PROBLEMS IN A CONSTRUCTIVE AND
INTEGRATED MANNER. MY APPROACH HAS BECOME FAR
MORE INCLUSIVE AND I HAVE ALREADY SEEN THE BENEFITS.
