Your Partners and Expert Resources

The Darden team plays a crucial role in the success of your organization’s custom program. At the forefront of our relationship is the commitment and expertise of the Senior Directors and Faculty. Beyond business knowledge, your Senior Directors will  provide the guidance and connection necessary for selecting the appropriate faculty team and designing your courses.

The Faculty’s knowledge and outstanding teaching, coupled with their dedication to providing extraordinarily innovative and action-oriented learning experiences, will help build and deliver the education your executives need and your firm expects. For the ninth consecutive year (2004–2012), the Faculty has received a top-five rating in the annual Financial Times survey of executive education.

The Senior Directors and Faculty are experienced in the private sector, and many consult for leading corporations, influential organizations and government agencies in the U.S. and abroad. This not only keeps them in touch with trends and issues in the global marketplace, but also strengthens relationships with corporate leaders, allowing overarching growth and enhanced research. This exposure also furthers the integration of knowledge and experience that enables participants to develop breakthrough visions.

Through our highly skilled team, executives in custom programs: 

• Are exposed to some of the most innovative ideas in business. 
• Are provided with the tools and conceptual frameworks for developing and implementing successful growth strategies. 
• Can generate insight and drive change. 

At Darden, participants will be inspired to adopt new ways of thinking, and to exercise new strategies and skills to overcome barriers. The entire Darden team works cohesively to ensure that every opportunity to convey and share knowledge is seized.
