Henrik Henriksson — CEO, Scania CV

One of the main strengths of this program is that executives from different business types and sectors take part together. Initially, that creates a challenge in understanding each other's working conditions and perspectives, but parallels and likenesses become apparent, creating many revelations. The Executive Program in Sustainable Urban Systems has given me new methods and models I can use in my daily work.

Catarina Nauclér — Research and Development Manager, Fortum

The mix of participants on the Executive Program in Consultancy Management was perfect. Everyone within the same business logic with basically the same problems. But thanks to a broad industry perspective there were few actual competitors, which allowed openness and sharpness in our discussions and teamwork. I gained a wider contact network and greater insight - something I have benefitted from enormously.

Bent Johanneson — former CEO, Ramböll Sverige AB

The engagement and knowledge of the faculty during the Executive Program in Infra Service Management contributed to exciting discussions and thought-provoking exercises. I also gained many new tools to use, new knowledge and got time to reflect and thereby find ways to develop the business.
