Emeritus and NUS Business School launch 9-Month Chief Strategy Officer Programme in India

The National University of Singapore (NUS) Business School has extended the collaboration with leading education platform Emeritus in launching its first Executive Education online programme, Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) programme, for residents in India.

The CSO programme was recently unveiled in Singapore and has received widespread positive interest. According to PwC's 2021 Global Crisis Survey, 96 per cent of businesses worldwide are looking to expedite organisational transformations in areas identified during the epidemic. This CSO programme, developed by NUS faculty, will help address the need for skilled strategic leaders. As a partner, Emeritus helps in the programme's marketing and operations.

The 9-month CSO programme is developed for senior-level professionals with over 10 years of work experience who are looking to develop their strategic decision-making skills to address an ever-changing business climate. The CSO programme will help senior executives, including HODs and CXOs, to apply their learning and frameworks for strategic leadership that are relevant across industries and domains. Upon completion of the programme, learners will know how to create strategic projects to address difficult business issues and position their businesses for revolutionary growth.

Jai Arya, Head, Executive Education, NUS Business School, said, "The role of Chief Strategy Officer has taken on greater significance in recent times, with the growing need for businesses to keep pace with the challenges of disruption and the demands of a fast-changing marketplace. This course is designed to equip aspiring and experienced CSOs with the end-to-end strategic and tactical skills to help them thrive in today's business environment."

The NUS CSO programme has been designed to provide senior executives with theoretical and practical components of strategic leadership."
