Corporate Executives

AIMD’s Diversity Leadership Academy introduces the Corporate Executive Series, a new resource for senior management champions of diversity. While there are scores of resources available for practitioners who make diversity their day-to-day jobs, few resources exist for the top-level managers who are held accountable for managing diversity and its impact on business results. Now there is a resource for executives seeking the leadership competencies and skills needed to champion this increasingly critical component of effective organizations.

The Corporate Executive Series is an intensive five-day program, taught in two and a half day segments, that gives participants a unique opportunity to develop cutting-edge, practical leadership competencies in a peer-to-peer setting exclusively for top-level corporate executives. The series emphasizes Strategic Diversity Management, focusing on applying diversity skills to non-traditional mixtures, such as union/management; brand/product portfolio and functional integration.

Who should attend? High-level operations and function executives, including: Senior Executives • Diversity Council Members • Chief Marketing Officers • Business Unit Presidents • Engineering Chiefs • General Counsels • Chief Financial Officers

Participants in the Fall 2004 session include:
  • A senior partner in a big five accounting firm
  • The Chief Financial Officer of an $8 billion manufacturing and marketing firm
  • The Chief Operating Officer of a national advertising agency
  • A division president of a global manufacturer of electronic instruments
What is the program design? A five-day curriculum is split into 2 two and a half day sessions, which are scheduled one-month apart.

The series prepares organization leaders to:
  • Build organization cultures that support all-inclusive work environments
  • Access varied talents and perspectives and challenge conventional
    wisdom when attacking complex business issues
  • Manage complex non-traditional diversity mixtures and tensions
    like, integrating disparate business functions, global expansion,
    post-merger/acquisition transition, union/non-union labor issues,
    business/brand portfolio resource allocation, etc.
