“Each module has added new knowledge that is directly useful in my everyday life. We have gained access to a lot of tools and models, and I will be able to use many of them for a long time to come.” Pernilla Oskarsson, Regional Manager, Smile Tandvård
This year’s participants in our flagship program Leading IMPACT – Executive Management & Leadership Program have now completed the first three modules. We asked one of the participants, Pernilla Oskarsson, Regional Manager at Smile Dental, about her experiences of the program so far.
Leading IMPACT – Executive Management & Leadership Program is a 15-month management program that strongly connects to the reality and strategic challenges of the participants and is developed based on more than 20 years of experience in Executive MBA programs.
In October, a new group of Leading Impacters started, who have now completed the first three modules, which have focused on leadership and strategy. One of the participants, Pernilla Oskarsson, Regional Manager at Smile Tandvård, describes her experiences:
You have now completed the first three modules of Leading IMPACT. What is your experience of the program so far?
The education and the teachers are of a very high standard. It has been a mixture of theory, lecture, discussion, and creative work. In a very well-thought-out and wise way, the first module laid the foundation for creating a safe environment in the group and this has given us great conditions for cooperation between the participants. There is a consistent connection to our respective businesses, which makes the training very relevant for everyone.
What is your biggest take aways after these three modules?
Oh, it’s almost hard to articulate. I bring a lot of things with me after each module. Now I have an updated model for coaching conversations, a structure for environmental analysis and I have gained new perspectives on alternative organizational structures. Just to mention a few things.
Can you already see the value of the education and take insights/learnings with you and apply them in your everyday work?
Absolutely! Each module has added new knowledge and models that are directly useful in my everyday work-life. We have gained access to a lot of tools, and I will be able to use many of them for a long time to come.
What would you say to someone who is considering taking the program next year?
I hadn’t hesitated for a second. There is direct value for both the individual participant and the employer.
