Run in conjunction with the University of Oxford's Blavatnik School of Government, the programme offers an immersive, world-class executive education experience, led by some of the world's leading public policy experts and teachers. The programme is designed to ensure these public leaders, and those moving into senior leadership in the public sector over the next three years, master a range of new skills as quickly as possible. Participants have an unparalleled opportunity to develop the conceptual frameworks and practical tools they need to meet the challenges of today's rapidly changing and complex world.

The experience is intense and demanding, engaging participants through classroom discussion, practical exercises, simulations, and group work. The programme aims to equip participants with the skills needed to build transformative cultures of excellence, effectiveness, and integrity throughout the public institutions they lead, and across the broader public sector. Their success is their country's benefit.

Participants work on these critical skills:

  • Communicating effectively
  • Harnessing digital technology
  • Reducing cognitive bias in decision-making
  • Strengthening organisational effectiveness
  • Maintaining personal integrity

To ensure each participant can get the most out of the programme, ample opportunities are offered to pull together the skills and conceptual frameworks learned in each session, including through project work and group reflection. After weeks of blended teaching, programme participants are given a window of time to develop a capstone project, allowing them to apply key learnings from the programme into their day-to-day work.
