Global AMP: Welcome to the Future!

November 27, 2025 at IE Business School (online)

We live in a time of extraordinary change. Technologies evolve at exponential speed. Markets shift overnight. New generations demand meaning as much as money. The certainties of the past — industries, hierarchies, business models — are dissolving. In their place, a new world is being shaped by those bold enough to reinvent it.

The Global Advanced Management Program (Global AMP) is designed for those people — leaders ready to rise above disruption, to harness change as fuel for growth, and to imagine and deliver the future. It’s an intensive journey for ambitious executives who want to transform their business — and themselves.

Leading business in a world of incredible change

This is not business as usual. The old playbooks no longer work. Every sector is being redefined — mobility, finance, energy, health, retail, media, education — by a potent mix of shifting expectations, new competitors, and radical technologies. The companies winning today are those with the courage to reimagine everything.

Tesla is not just an automaker but a digital energy ecosystem. Apple has turned a computer brand into a seamless lifestyle platform. Amazon continuously reinvents retail, logistics, and now healthcare. BYD, China’s electric powerhouse, is reshaping global transport. Patagonia builds sustainability into every fibre of its business model.

The Global AMP helps you decode this complexity and see the patterns of progress beneath the turbulence. You’ll explore megatrends such as urbanisation, demographic shifts, climate urgency, and deglobalisation — and learn how to turn them into opportunities for value creation. You’ll dive into the new logics of competition, where platforms replace pipelines, ecosystems replace empires, and purpose replaces pure profit.

This is leadership for an era where the future won’t wait.

Harnessing the power of phenomenal technologies

Technology is no longer an enabler — it’s the environment in which all business now exists. Artificial intelligence, robotics, synthetic biology, quantum computing, and materials science are converging to rewrite the rules of innovation and growth.

The Global AMP takes you beyond the buzzwords to the heart of transformation — understanding how these technologies change what’s possible, and what it means for your industry, your customers, and your organisation.

You’ll examine how DeepMind and OpenAI are redefining intelligence itself. How ASML, the Dutch semiconductor pioneer, enables the chips that power every digital innovation. How SpaceX is making space commercial and reusable. How Moderna applied AI and mRNA technology to revolutionise healthcare. How Shopify and Stripe empower millions of entrepreneurs through invisible infrastructure.

These are not just stories of science — they are blueprints of reinvention. They show how technology, when combined with human imagination, becomes the ultimate competitive advantage.

As part of the programme, you’ll explore what exponential technologies mean for your own business. You’ll learn to think in systems, to anticipate inflection points, and to design strategies that harness disruption before it harnesses you.

Learning from the world’s most amazing companies

The Global AMP is built around learning from the best — companies and leaders who are shaping tomorrow’s economy today. We go inside the cultures and strategies of innovators from every continent, extracting lessons that are directly applicable to your world.

You’ll learn from Netflix, which reinvented itself from DVD mailer to global streaming and now a content and gaming powerhouse. From Nike, which fuses sport and technology to build communities and experiences. From Unilever, which embeds sustainability and purpose into global brands. From DBS Bank in Singapore, the world’s most digitally transformed financial institution. From Atlassian and GitLab, who have redefined what collaborative, remote, high-performance teams can achieve.

You’ll explore how Tesla and BYD are changing energy and transport; how Airbnb and Uber reinvented service models through platforms; how Adidas, On Running, and Hoka are turning performance into emotion and identity.

Each example becomes a lens to examine your own company — not to copy, but to catalyse. You’ll identify the insights that matter: how these businesses sense change early, scale ideas rapidly, and sustain innovation through culture and purpose.

Equipping yourself with the best ideas and tools

Knowledge without application is inertia. That’s why the Global AMP equips you with not just insight, but the most powerful frameworks and tools to turn vision into action.

You’ll master the ideas reshaping global strategy today — from Blue Ocean Strategy and Disruptive Innovation to Jobs to Be Done thinking and Design Thinking. You’ll apply tools like Business Model Canvas, Scenario Planning, and Systems Mapping to design transformation. You’ll explore Purpose-Driven Leadership, Agile Transformation, Platform Ecosystems, and Exponential Organisation models — translating them from theory into impact.

And crucially, you’ll develop your own “Gamechanger Blueprint” — a strategic and personal roadmap for the future. Through interactive sessions, simulations, and coaching, you’ll reimagine your business model, leadership approach, and organisational culture.

These tools are drawn not from academia alone, but from the frontier of business — the practices used by the world’s most innovative companies and entrepreneurial leaders.

Transform your business. Transform yourself.

The Global AMP is not a traditional management course. It’s an immersive, multi-week experience — an exploration, a reflection, a catalyst. You’ll work with global peers from across industries and continents, expanding your perspective and your network. Together, you’ll tackle real-world challenges and design bold solutions.

Each module connects the business agenda and the leadership agenda: how you lead change externally, and how you grow internally. You’ll learn to think across boundaries — integrating strategy, innovation, and sustainability with the human dimensions of empathy, collaboration, and resilience.

The programme is guided personally by Peter Fisk, one of the world’s leading business thinkers — author of Gamechangers, Business Recoded, and Future Junkies. Drawing on his experience advising companies from Microsoft to Coca-Cola, Virgin to Santander, he helps leaders like you reimagine growth and relevance in a turbulent world.

You’ll be supported by an extraordinary faculty of futurists, innovators, and CEOs who share their own journeys of transformation — from Nestlé’s reinvention of nutrition and health, to Schneider Electric’s pivot to sustainability, to Natura &Co’s mission-driven approach to beauty.

By the end of the journey, you’ll leave with clarity, conviction, and capability — not only to transform your organisation, but to redefine yourself as a leader of the future.

The mindset of a future leader

What does it take to lead in this new world? It takes imagination — to see what others cannot. It takes courage — to act before certainty. It takes empathy — to connect purpose with people. And it takes adaptability — to learn, unlearn, and reinvent yourself continuously.

The Global AMP builds this mindset through experience, reflection, and challenge. You’ll be stretched to see differently, to think systemically, to lead authentically. You’ll learn how to balance innovation with execution, human creativity with technological possibility, short-term delivery with long-term transformation.

As I always say “The future belongs to those who create it — not those who wait for it.”

Step up to create the future

This is your invitation — to lead at a higher level, to think bigger and bolder, to make your mark on a changing world. The Global Advanced Management Program is more than an executive education experience. It’s a platform for transformation — of business, of leadership, of self.

You’ll emerge not just with new knowledge, but a new way of seeing. Not just new strategies, but renewed confidence to act. Not just a network, but a movement of leaders shaping a better future.

If you are ready to reimagine your business, harness the power of technology, learn from the world’s most amazing companies, and equip yourself with the ideas and tools to make it happen — then you are ready for the Global AMP.

Because in the end, the greatest transformation begins with you.
