From business leader to enterprise leader: Expanding your strategic horizon

An IMD masterclass on navigating the journey from senior leader to enterprise leader

Career progression at the senior level may be served by switching companies, but it can also be powered by deepening your contribution where you are.

For senior leaders aiming to grow within their organization, the challenge lies in evolving from driving success in a business area to shaping the strategic direction of the enterprise – and even influencing at the board level.

In this masterclass, Professor Arnaud Chevallier, Director of IMD’s Global Management Foundations program, will explore the internal leadership journey: How seasoned leaders can expand their influence, take on greater responsibility, position themselves as trusted voices in the most senior conversations, and constantly evolve their skill set to best support their organization in their current role…and the next one.

This session will provide actionable tools and perspectives for executives ready to evolve from leading a business to leading the business.

What you’ll gain:

• Strategic thinking process – Apply practical tools to strengthen decision-making and shape organizational direction.
• Influence at the top – Learn how to build trust, credibility, and impact with senior executives, boards, and key stakeholders.
• A glimpse into IMD’s executive journey – Experience the type of development embedded in our programs, designed to support internal progression and long-term impact.

Following the masterclass, you will have the chance to engage directly with our Program Advisors, who will offer:
