Overview
The Senior Executive Programme (SEP) is IMI’s
flagship development programme for senior business
leaders. The SEP delivers a transformative learning
experience that focuses on the role of leaders in driving
and sustaining corporate success in uncertain times. This
dynamic, cross-disciplinary programme is aimed at senior
leaders from all functional backgrounds and from a range
of industries.
The SEP is renowned for bringing the very best of
global business thinkers and practitioners to Ireland – from
international centres of excellence such as IMD, Harvard
Business School, INSEAD and London Business School.
The IMI’s action learning philosophy and award-winning
programme design capability integrates our expertise to
deliver a learning experience with true business impact.
The SEP has world class and thought provoking speakers who give practical
tools and solutions which can immediately be brought back to your industry.
The programme encourages you to revaluate your leadership style and it puts
people skills at the core of your strategy. The learnings from other participants
on the programme is invaluable, I would highly recommend this course”.

Who is this
programme for?
The SEP is tailored for groups of individuals who already are, or
are targeted to become, senior team members – from private,
public, for profit and not for profit organisations. Participants will
have a desire to enhance an already impressive track record
through a hunger to learn and exposure to new ideas and
strategic perspectives.
Participants will have demonstrated a high level of achievement
in their career to date and will be involved in determining the
strategic direction of their organisation, business unit or function.
Executive directors and senior line managers, including general
managers and functional heads from medium and large
companies have made up the majority of attendees at this
programme in recent years.
The SEP was far more challenging than I had anticipated and it was an experience
which has developed me as a leader, personally and professionally. When I look
back, I will count it as an investment which paid off; for my work colleagues,
myself and indeed my family. If you’re reading this and you want to invest in your
career and yourself, do what I did a year ago: book yourself onto the SEP.”

Impact for
participating By participating in the SEP, you will:
+ Deepen your strategy formulation skill, in the context
executives of a turbulent environment.
+ Acquire new insights and perspectives from world
class business experts.
+ Understand and enhance your personal leadership
impact and effectiveness.
+ Build a powerful network of peers and faculty.
+ Develop an understanding of how to organise
effectively and maximise business performance.
+ Renew your energy and concentrate your focus on
your organisation’s leadership challenges.
+ Develop professional development plans for your
future.
As a specific deliverable, each participant will be
supported throughout the programme in developing
an action plan based on the insights and learning from
the programme that you will put into practice following
completion of the SEP. This plan will serve as a focal
point for capturing the many personal insights that you
develop over the duration of the programme, structuring
the translation of best-practice theory into contextualised
actions.
The Senior Exec Programme has been a wonderful professional and personal
development experience for me. It provided the opportunity to engage with
and learn from some really impressive business experts across a range of
disciplines. The content was stimulating and helped me broaden my skills,
knowledge and perspective. In addition, sharing the learning experience
with colleagues from other industries was powerful and provided me with an
excellent networking opportunity.”

Impact for your
organisation
As a result of participating in the programme,
you will be a stronger and more significant leader
which will impact your organisation in two ways.
Firstly, the SEP can position you in your organisation’s leadership
talent pipeline. As a result of your learning you will develop a
more holistic view of your organisation in order to take advantage
of opportunities in the global arena. At IMI, we understand the skills
required in senior management positions. When developing these key
skills we focus on action-learning as it facilitates a broader view of the
organisation.
Secondly, the SEP delivers a return on your company’s investment.
The Programme Director will work with you to identify a suitable
organisational project that will add value to you and
your organisation.
The programme covers an array of topics in a practical way, comprehensively
addressing traditional and “softer” elements of leadership (such as Emotional
Intelligence), providing real depth and insight. Diverse subject matter is delivered
by leading business thinkers, expertly woven together by the IMI team. The
learning format provides an invaluable forum in which to share experiences and
enhance learning while the variety and quality of each module results in attendees
taking away different personal enlightenments.”

10 | Senior Executive Programme | Moving from best practice to next practiceThe calibre of guest speakers and business thought leaders on the SEP was
superb, combining both the theory and practical and laying the foundation
for change which you can implement once the programme ends. Insights and
interactions with peers from a wide variety of industries and disciplines led to
many a lively debate, adding yet another dimension to the whole SEP experience.
The programme is demanding but at the same time rewarding. It asks questions
of your leadership style, challenges your thinking and empowers you to shape
your organisational culture in a way that allows future leaders to flourish – I’m
delighted to have participated from both a personal and professional perspective.”
