Study shows that executive education yields benefits for individuals, and entire organizations

According to a recent study by researchers at Lancaster University Management School in the UK, executive education can yield benefits for those who undertake it, as well as their wider organizations. Dr. Martin Brigham and Professors Mike Reynolds and Lucas Introna surveyed 76 participants in the International Masters Program for Managers (IMPM), which is delivered by five partner universities, including Lancaster, McGill, and institutions in India, Japan and Brazil. Participants were asked to consider the program’s impacts, and the study found that participants benefitted directly and were empowered to create development programs based on their IMPM experience. Their companies also benefitted through opportunities to upskill staff across the organization.
