Leading People Essentials Professional Development Program | Northeastern University Executive Education

Drive execution. Lead with clarity. Deliver results.

Delivered in four half-day workshops over four weeks. Grounded in real-world application and designed for impact, this module adapts to the unique needs of each cohort. Faculty draw from a dynamic mix of learning tools—including case studies, simulations, debates, and collaborative breakouts—to drive engagement and insight. Participants will reframe leadership not just as managing teams, but as the ability to influence across boundaries—customers, suppliers, even competitors. Technology and AI are embedded throughout as critical lenses for shaping strategy, enhancing decision-making, and leading with confidence in a rapidly evolving landscape.
