Develop your leadership capabilities in core areas of business school strategy
UK business schools face unprecedented pressures: shifting business models, tighter funding, rapid technological change, and growing demand for lifelong learning and innovation.
Chartered ABS Development Programmes are designed to help you meet these challenges with confidence.
Through expert facilitation, peer learning and practical tools, our programmes enable you to:
Refine your strategic thinking
Strengthen your leadership capacity
Expand your professional networks
Enhance your own effectiveness and your school’s reputation
Each programme is co-created with experienced sector leaders to maximise impact. They provide the rare opportunity to step back, reflect on your strategy, and return energised with actionable insights, new approaches, and valuable connections.
