This executive programme brings together the finest expertise from the University of Cambridge and Mannaz.
The programme is tailored to senior global executive leaders seeking to develop their leadership capabilities for the future.
Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) provide world-class research and business insight on topics of strategic global foresight, geopolitics, business strategy, and sustainability as a driver of competitiveness.
Mannaz equips leaders to excel within their organisations by focusing on strategic execution, system navigation, rethinking human and AI interaction, and organisational impact.
By combining the University of Cambridge’s research and insights with Mannaz’s systemic and human-centric perspective and practical methodologies, the programme delivers inspiring keynotes, interactive sessions, coaching, and peer-to-peer learning, culminating in the development of an actionable plan.
Participants will also join an exclusive global network of 3,700 senior leaders (alumni’s) from more than 1,750 organisations in 100 countries.
The programme spans six months and includes modules delivered at the Cambridge University (CISL) and in Copenhagen.

Capability building for strategy enablement
Previous cohorts of CISL’s Business Sustainability Programme have included leaders from organisations such as Novo Nordisk, the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Google, Unilever, AstraZeneca, ABN AMRO Bank, and Procter & Gamble.
The programme uniquely includes the CISL flagship programme ‘Business & Sustainability’ and the University of Cambridge CISL network, where the participating leaders will join other leaders from around the world and be part of the Cambridge community.
Since 1995, the Cambridge Business & Sustainability Programme (BSP) has built a community of 3,700 senior leaders in over 100 countries determined to shape the markets of the future together.
From Europe’s search for a new economic story, to Africa’s pragmatism and sense of progress amid complexity, to Asia’s momentum in driving innovation and setting the pace of competition, to Australia’s focus on seizing opportunities from its resource transition – BSP brings these perspectives together in one global community to shape the agenda of what comes next.

The programme is meticulously designed around the leadership dilemmas and opportunities inherent at your level of responsibility.
Participants will be inspired by contemporary theoretical frameworks and global trends, gaining fresh perspectives on their leadership roles, challenges, and opportunities through constructive dialogue and feedback from Mannaz consultants, as well as from fellow senior leaders and executives within the cohort.
The programme has a strong action learning approach where leaders work in depth with their own challenges both in modules and in their contexts.
Each module maintains a strong focus on the individual circumstances of every leader. In Modules 3 to 6, dedicated leadership labs will spotlight selected participants, ensuring that all attendees benefit from in-depth, personalised development.
The prioritisation and depth of the various themes are tailored to reflect the group’s interests and current challenges.
Below, you will find a detailed description of each module.
As an optional, extra package, we offer a Hogan assessment plus a Hogan feedback session plus a Hogan follow-up coaching session as a personal part of this programme.
Hogan’s personal assessment tools are a suite of workplace psychometric tests including the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI), which measures “bright-side” personality traits; the Hogan Development Survey (HDS), which identifies potential “derailers” or negative behaviors under stress; and the Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI), which assesses core values and what drives an individual.
