Taught by a team of faculty members from Harvard Business School and other graduate schools within Harvard University, the programs for non-profit leaders feature management cases and materials drawn from a wide variety of social enterprises. Post-program evaluations have been overwhelmingly positive, and follow-up discussions indicate that participants are actively applying concepts and skills from the programs. Participants have the opportunity to connect with non-profit leaders from a broad range of sectors and geographies.
