“This program is brought to you by Mexeen Executive Education in partnership with Rotman School of Management.
This is one of several signature programs that Mexeen is co-developing with world-class universities to bring regional context and relevance to the learning intervention. The program is designed based on a set of activities that aim to pull insights from the market including pre-program surveys and focus group discussions with key executives from the GCC. This input is used to build business case studies and feed program development, giving participants the edge they need when dealing with their change management initiatives in the local context.
This program is recommended for organizations that want to have a more concentrated discussion on what it means to do change in the GCC context and what it takes for the 30% of initiatives to succeed. While the principles of change management are well-known and established, the key to successful change management lies in understanding the true regional challenges and cultural associations that hinder progress and often cause failure.
