TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

CEDEP is referred to as a meeting of minds, where members of our executive education ecosystem come together for inspiration, open exchange, and collaborative learning in a safe and unique space.

Our transformational leadership development programs, co-created with our members, empower global leaders to tackle real-life business challenges within a highly engaged learning and development community.

WHAT MAKES CEDEP DIFFERENT?

At CEDEP, we challenge conventional perspectives to help guide leaders through our complex, interconnected, ever-changing business world. We approach every challenge with curiosity and thrive on connecting points of view to create new possibilities.

We believe in a hands-on, practical and immersive approach to learning that puts people at the centre, values community insight and channels individual aspirations into actions that collectively benefit the organisation.

INNOVATIVE EXECUTIVE LEARNING

Transformative Journey

Our programs offer an innovative mix of dialogue, collaboration, interactive exercises and experimentation. We believe learning often requires unlearning. That’s why we encourage participants to embark on a journey of self-reflection, challenge previous conceptions, and be open to alternative viewpoints.
In this space, we not only enable transformation but also expect it.

Empowered Learning

We actively encourage leaders to be fully engaged in their learning journey. We provide them with the necessary skills, knowledge and resources to take control, enabling them to make meaningful choices about what and how they learn and the actions they can take to benefit their organisation.

Trusted Environment

We have created a safe and confidential space where leaders from non-competing industries can freely discuss, explore and envision the future of their organisations without reservation. This rare and unique collaborative learning environment is invaluable for unlocking global leadership insights.

TRUE IMPACT

The Financial Times once described us as the ‘world’s best kept secret in executive education’. For 50 years, it has been a deliberate choice for us to limit the number of non-competing and diverse global members to remain agile and develop deep and impactful member relationships. 

Our core focus on collaborative learning and collective intelligence, where individual participants remain connected to the bigger picture, also creates a sense of true belonging and inspires leaders to contribute collectively to the future of their organisations.

SPACE TO REFLECT

Our main campus, located on the INSEAD Business School campus, in the heart of the Fontainebleau Forest, just outside Paris offers a relaxing and calm learning environment for leaders to escape the daily grind, take time out and put things into perspective. Here, we exchange best practices, share fresh ideas, try new things, and nurture our minds.

We also hold over a quarter of our programs at international locations for participant convenience and to reduce our carbon footprint. We successfully emulate our reflective and inspiring learning experience during our program sessions at these locations and online.

INNOVATIVE ONLINE LIVE LEARNING

At CEDEP, we offer face-to-face learning wherever you are in the world. We can also deliver online programs via CEDEP LiVE (Learning in a Virtual Environment), connecting global participants with a blend of interactive live sessions, simulations and opportunities for reflection to maximise the power of peer learning and engagement. Participants can easily access content and track learning objectives along their virtual learning journey.
