Welcome to the EDHEC Family Business Global Executive MBA.

It’s new, it’s unique! It’s just how next generation leaders

would have designed it.

Family Values and Global Perspective: Family Business is deeply rooted in our

DNA since EDHEC was founded in 1906 by prominent entrepreneurs from the

North of France. As a European Business School, we also embrace diversity, global

thinking and networking with other families around the world

as sources of inspiration in both personal and business lives.

Managerial Rigour and Relevance: What makes this EDHEC programme so unique?

On top of fundamental business practices, it focuses on issues that are clearly specific to

family firms, be it strategies for family businesses, fiscal and financial engineering,

family firms governance, roles and responsibilities of Board Members,

that no other MBA programme in the world is addressing.

EDHEC's independent and agile spirit is both entrepreneurial

and innovation-based. It reflects our values close to Family Business

and is the source of value creation for the EDHEC Family Business Global

Executive MBA programme.

In Lille, Paris, Nice, London and Singapore, the richness and relevance

aRe you ReaDy?

–

You will soon take charge! Leading a Business Unit, sitting on the Board or both.

You are elated… and you’ve got great ambitions and new ideas for the family business

…

And you know that leading the growth and continuity of the family business is one of the most

difficult jobs in the world. When it comes to family businesses, filling the shoes of the all-powerful

leader is also far from easy.

Although you have seen the previous leaders struggle to balance family demands

and business requirements, the retiring generation will often be cherished as close to perfection

and you will always be judged on how you have integrated their vision and charisma,

their entrepreneurship spirit and their business acumen.

You may wish you had complemented earlier your on-the-job training with a stronger

academic background. Not only are you required to have a solid understanding of the key

management tools in finance, marketing and operations; you also need to feel comfortable in analyzing

and assessing the situation to develop new strategies and implement change; you need to be

familiar with the roles and responsibilities of Board members; you must understand the impact

of governance on performance.

EDHEC Family Business Global Executive MBA has especially been designed to help you achieve

these goals and more, with a particular focus on the key requirements of modern family businesses,

among which stand the Competitive Imperative, Leadership Excellence and Efficient Governance.

The programme has been carefully crafted by experienced faculty and Family Business experts to:

• accelerate your learning by exposing you to hundreds of business situations;

• prepare you to immediately put into practice the content of each module;

• help you fill any leadership competency gap you will identify at the beginning of the programme.

Moreover, you will do that with a group of people you can trust: people who have exactly

the same issues, the same objectives, the same needs to develop. You will all share remarkably similar

stories, yet in your own unique family business environment. We bet some of your fellow participants

may well become not only friends but your most trusted advisors through all your life.

EDHEC Family Business Global Executive MBA is a life-changing journey.

like many mba participants, they want to enrich their experience sharing best practices with international peers. they are result-oriented, with a strong track record as managers. in addition to analytical skills, they need to strengthen interpersonal skills.

Unlike regular MBA students, they have been identified

as the next leaders of a business unit, or invited to sit on the board. Participants in Gemba alternate their intense study periods with

their demanding professional work.

Participants in the programme have had a rich business life for an average of 10 years, with at least 4 years

of significant managerial responsibilities: they are able to exercise sound business judgement and to share worthwhile experience.

• strategies for family business: balancing theory and practice with visits to family firms in asia • legal, fiscal and financial engineering for family business

The ultimate goal for a family firm is to continue being so, i.e. to remain as a company

that successfully transmits itself to the next generation. In a more complex, more global, more competitive

and more uncertain environment, the modern family firm is confronted with a triple requirement:

Competitive Imperative, Leadership Excellence and Efficient Governance.

COMpETITIvE IMpERATIvE

being competitive requires analysis of the environment and anticipation of changes. it means reinforcing in the production

cycle those critical elements contributing to create the value that is recognised by the market. it is the resolve to strengthen

one’s position through innovation. it is the implementation of the strategy with agility.

whatever the degree of diversification or internationalisation they present, Family

businesses are often deeply rooted in their original trade and exhibit strong prudential behaviours. it is then legitimate to put the issue of openness at the heart of their strategy. this openness needs to be evaluated, in terms of products, technology,

territories and competencies.

lEADERSHIp ExCEllEnCE

leadership excellence is about defining a common ambition for the business, growing

people and helping them develop. complexity enters the picture when we think about building the family firm’s growth strategy

and in the meantime safeguarding the family’s cohesion and optimising the ownership structure to strengthen the continuity options. as a family business leader, you are responsible

for the values of the company and the impact of your company on the community at large. we will help you to develop leadership skills

to define clear goals and boldness, and to acquire a strong sense of self-confidence.

you will then be able to welcome change,

challenge the existing rules of the game and encourage new ideas. EffICIEnT GOvERnAnCE

in Family businesses, when the Family and the business develop, the number of actors and interests increases; decisions can

no longer be taken in informal gatherings. we need to create appropriate and efficient

governance to separate and unite at

the same time the voices of shareholders,

family members and managers. boards need to be well crafted, roles and responsibilities

of board members need to be shared and understood, including those members external to the family who can reinforce

the supervising authority’s mission. we need to look at issues from multiple

perspectives and constantly strengthen cohesion and commitment from

the family owners.

for family businesses, leadership excellence is linked to the

legitimacy of the leader . As a member of the family or external to the family, legitimacy comes from competencies in

terms of managerial practices as well as the capacity to embody, share and maintain the long-term values coming

from the family business history . 1 . Assessment Centre

at the start of the programme, each participant will benefit from a personal appraisal through a proprietary assessment

centre developed by eDHec for family business leaders.

2 . Individual Development Agenda

with the help of coaches, participants will draw up their individual agenda

for development throughout the duration of the programme.

3 . Coaching Sessions

coaches will intervene at each stage of the programme through on-campus

peer-development sessions to help participants develop and evolve in

their agenda.

4 . Dialogue between Coaching and Mentoring

Participants will be asked to identify a mentor within the family firm so that

follow-up can be ensured between coaches on-campus and mentors

off-campus.

5 . peer-leader Exchange

a specific shadowing experience will help participants reflect on their beliefs

and behaviours, and receive feedback from peers.

Additionally, 2 workshops will help participants consolidate assertiveness, independence, self-regard

and self-actualisation .

6 . Media Training Workshop in Singapore

During the two-week module in singapore, participants will be exposed

to a full-day media training workshop to explore posture and ease in front

of journalists.

7 . DRIvE: leadership Bootcamp in the Uk

there are numerous models of leadership training and our way to express our model

is through the simple acronym DRIvE

Development, Responsibility, Integrity, vision and Excellence.

Efficient management is the art of gaining maximum performance with

minimum input. And many a company fails, efficiently, meeting solely

short-term goals.

Leaders recognise the importance of a long-term vision. They boldly welcome

and impulse change to pursue ambitious objectives. With or without charisma,

but with respect and integrity, they personalise their vision and transform groups

of individuals into motivated teams. For their followers, leaders are a source

of inspiration and commitment.

CASES AnD BUSInESS GAMES fOR ACCElERATED lEARnInG

the number of real cases to which you will be exposed throughout the programme far exceeds the opportunities you may

have in day-to-day life. you will learn from other countries, from other industries, from situations you may not encounter in your own environment. business games such as ‘markstrat’

and ‘PanDora’ will also put you in tough decision-making situations. the richness of the methodology accelerates

your business experience as a leader.

STRATEGIC fOCUS

the emphasis throughout the programme is on the Family Firm as a whole, rather than on individual disciplines.

Functional disciplines are covered during the first three to four weeks, in order to harmonise levels of understanding. thereafter the emphasis is on strategic analysis and decision: sharing

a broad view of the business and understanding the interaction with the overall context; creating value for the firm’s various

constituencies: the customer, the employees, the family members and the shareholders.

DIvERSITy, EnGAGEMEnT AnD fUn

we will provide a diversity of methods through lectures, cases, simulations, coaching and relevant company visits. we will organise peer-leader exchange, various workshops

and a leadership bootcamp. you need to provide commitment and engagement to make the programme

worthwhile to you and to your fellow participants. engagement is also the necessary ingredient to make this

overall experience a lasting reservoir of fun memories.

EnRICHMEnT THROUGH DIvERSITy

you will also learn from the wealth of experience which exists in the classroom. Faculty will reveal such experience and encourage exchange of best practices and collective learning.

yet people may have different viewpoints. arguing with others is an essential part of acquiring knowledge. in order to convince others, you need to better articulate your own

arguments and better understand your own thoughts.

COnCRETE AnD ApplICABlE

the eDHec Family business Global executive mba

is all about bridging the gap between theory and practice. alternating between the classroom and your place at work, you will construct

your own bridge through the “implementation reports” and the projects, where you will apply what you have learnt to

your very own work environment.

The content of the programme is important; so is the learning process!

How you learn is as important as what you learn and we want to make sure that you can

apply immediately your newly acquired knowledge.
