IS THE STRATEGIC FINANCIAL LEADERSHIP PROGRAM RIGHT FOR YOU?
SFLP is specifically designed for senior financial leaders and their high-potential staff who are involved in developing strategy. SFLP is designed as a consortium that brings together finance teams from leading companies. This intercompany peer learning accelerates and leverages knowledge, experience and best practices. Company teams consist of 3-5 high-potential financial professionals. SFLP is also open to individual participants.

BUSINESS CHALLENGE PROJECT: APPLY WHAT YOU LEARN
As part of their SFLP learning experience, teams and individuals will collaborate on an action learning project of strategic relevance to the company. These hands-on projects are designed around company-specific issues and focus on real challenges that are at the nexus between strategy and finance.

Applying the concepts to real issues provides an ROI on the learning experience and delivers a payoff to improve business performance for the company. Action learning also unleashes the team’s creative thinking and encourages the development of a common internal language around strategy, finance and leadership.

Tuck faculty have extensive experience in integrating and supporting action learning projects as part of the overall learning experience. Prof. Robert Howell is actively involved in the process to help shape the projects and ensure a linkage between finance, strategy and leadership.
