LinKS

The LinKS@Wharton program has exceeded my expectations in two dimensions: The high quality of the lectures, and the positive interaction among the participants.

Meeting new people from various fields has been inspiring and has given me different and alternative perspectives. I want a balanced combination of mentally challenging theory and models with concrete applicable tools, and LinKS@Wharton has delivered this.

By meeting qualified teachers and participants, I experienced the true benefit of professional networking. What I appreciate the most is the mix of different sectors at the LinKS programs. The essential of constant review of yourself and your sectors role in the value chain makes the difference. I will recommend the LinKS W-program to people who want to be one step ahead regarding the latest knowledge on leadership.

The fact that the professors here do consulting work with clients, make them used to connect with business people – not only on a strategic level, but also on tactical and operational levels. Especially the company visits have been very valuable.

LinKS@Wharton is academic top level. The way the professors present their points, support their views with documented research, and connect with their audience is excellent. The learning dynamics, and especially the guided reflection sessions, are very good. I have developed an action plan for what new knowledge I bring home and which I will apply in our company. The interplay between participants from the private and public sector gives a very valuable mutual insight.

The quality of the academics is simply fantastic. When professors at this very high level create a combination of lectures and discussions, it is very powerful. This week has made me enormously motivated to continue working together with and challenging my team.

The professional and social interaction among everyone is a positive surprise, and it beats my experiences from several other manager networks.  The high quality of the thorough preparations by the LinKS team has made everything work very well. I have done executive education at Insead, Stanford, and Harvard – and Wharton is highly recommended. I have received specific tools that I can apply directly in a way that will make us do things right instead of repeating previous mistakes.
