Senior executives responsible for preparing their organization’s long-term business strategies, choosing how to achieve them, and giving their people the tools they need to succeed may not necessarily have sufficient time available to take the full Stanford APM program themselves, even if they see value for their next tier managers. To help those busy executives get up to speed quickly, IPS offers several executive-level courses and a half-day strategic execution briefing that cover the most important elements of the Stanford APM program. These sessions are designed to give a working knowledge of the tools and techniques taught in the full Stanford APM program, without getting into the detailed mechanics of how it all works.

The following are among the executive-level courses that IPS currently offers:

• Strategic Execution Briefing
• Converting Strategy Into Action—An Executive Perspective
• Leadership for Strategic Execution—An Executive Perspective
• Mastering the Project Portfolio—An Executive Perspective
