education center for CEO's
The Yale School of Management (Yale SOM) has joined forces with the Chief Executive Leadership Institute (CELI), a combination think-tank and corporate management education center, to offer the first university-based peer-driven leadership education program for America's top executives.
Yale SOM and CELI prepare corporate, government and nonprofit chiefs for global leadership by bringing together distinguished scholars and real-world leaders to explore broad academic frameworks and current business concepts. Both are also pioneers of collaboration, teamwork and consensus building. In fact, in June the Wall Street Journal ranked Yale SOM as number three in the world, citing its graduates' exceptional ability to work well in teams as well as their analytical and problem-solving skills.
With the new partnership, CELI will bring Yale faculty and students into a closer learning partnership with prominent leaders across sectors. In addition, the school will benefit from deepened corporate ties and corporate interest in sponsored research projects.
"We expect breakthrough research to reach influential policymakers, and in turn, we expect theoretical ideas will be subject to field testing," noted Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, associate dean for executive education at Yale SOM, as well as the founder, president and chief executive officer of CELI. "Other programs run events to market services to CEOs or offer basic training to newly minted leaders; our forum is different because we are the only ones bringing advanced learning to experienced leaders."
"Both the Yale School of Management and the CELI have as their missions educating leaders for business and society," notes Jeffrey E. Garten, dean of Yale SOM. "The interaction of the world's top business executives with our students and faculty will be a wonderful formula for education that furthers this goal."
