Prepare for the future challenges of board leadership with the Executive Board Programme INSEAD

Creating value in the boardroom is no longer just a matter of oversight – it requires insight, decisiveness, and strategic judgment.

The Executive Board Programme equips you with the skills, tools, and network to stand stronger in the boardroom.

Is this program right for you?

This programme is for you if you can answer “yes” to one or more of the following questions:

  • Do you want to strengthen your role as a board member and contribute more actively and value-creating in the boardroom?
  • Do you need a stronger foundation in governance, risk management, and the board’s responsibilities in an increasingly complex environment?
  • Do you want to become sharper at navigating the interaction between the board, executive management, and owners – even in high-pressure decision-making situations?
  • Are you facing strategic decisions on growth, acquisitions, divestments, or value creation, where the board’s role is crucial?
  • Do you want to develop professionally as a board leader through international insights, practical tools, and a strong network?

Your benefits will be:

  • a deep understanding of the interaction between the board, executive management, and owners
  • practical tools to create impact in the grey areas of board work
  • a professional network of experienced board members
  • concrete knowledge of risk management, governance, and value creation
  • a prestigious INSEAD certificate to strengthen your CV for higher-level board positions
  • practice-oriented learning with an international perspective in a Scandinavian context

What our participants say

Kjell Ove Breivik

Chair, Utkilen AS
“A brilliant program with a superb faculty! I had the pleasure of joining the first Swedish cohort during the spring of 2025 during the initial 2 days, and later on joined the larger group at Insead for 4 full days. I was impressed by all the presenters whom had the right professional skills, but they also knew how to talk to and how to engage a “grown up” audience. In addition to a very well assembled program syllabus with its great content, I also appreciated the peer learning and all the new connections I made with other participants. Meeting likeminded professionals outside your own normal “work habitat”, is a really good eye-opener and another source of valuable learning”

Carl Mellander

Member of SEK's Board of Directors
“I think it was brilliant. It was a great learning experience to be here. Fantastic professors – they are so engaged. And it is a great group of participants also. You learn from each other as well as from the professors. Good academic foundations, lots of models and useful things to bring home. I am pleased.”

Karin Skoglund

Board Member and Founder of Contango Resources
“I can highly recommend the Executive Board Programme INSEAD at the Scandinavian Executive Institute! This board training, with its focus on long-term and value-creating board work, has clearly enhanced my board competencies. The teaching from some of the world’s leading board experts and professors provided me with many practical tools—and not least, inspiration and new perspectives. Moreover, the other participants held a very high level, which greatly enriched the learning experience and the exchange of insights. Over the course of the programme, we became a very close-knit group, giving me a new and valuable network. This is something I will carry with me—it was both an experience and a lifelong lesson!”
