Harvard University

Executive Education at Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) offers programs for leaders from around the world. We bring together experienced professionals, a world-class faculty, and a dynamic curriculum in a setting where the common denominator is a shared commitment to public value. The result is a lasting transformational leadership experience. We have developed the most comprehensive range of executive education programs in public leadership available anywhere in the world.


This catalog identifies specific courses offered at the Harvard Kennedy School Institution that will help federal managers and leaders meet their developmental needs in the ECQs. However, HKS offers several other leadership courses, which are not included in this catalog that managers and leaders may find beneficial and rewarding. Following is a link to its website that provides an alphabetical listing of course offerings: http://ksgexecprogram.harvard.edu/Programs/By_Name.aspx

Leaders in Development: Managing Change in a Dynamic World http://ksgexecprogram.harvard.edu/Programs/lid/overview.aspx

During times of great change, leadership is critically important. This is particularly true today in developing and newly industrialized countries where the pace of political and economic change is accelerating rapidly. Today's leaders face an increasingly complex tapestry of economic, political, and social challenges.
Increasingly, leaders encounter arenas in which authority to respond to problems is more diffuse, the issues they are called upon to deal with are more complex, and the imperative to incorporate knowledge and participation is greater.
Leaders in Development is designed for leaders in public affairs whose responsibilities place them at the center of these issues. During the program, participants will:


  • Sharpen problem solving, analytic, and strategic action skills to help them plan, introduce, and sustain major policy and institutional reform.

  • Consider new ways to strengthen representative politics and open markets, and manage the challenges of globalization.

  • Share experiences with their counterparts in other countries in a collective search for effective responses to change.

Participants return to their countries with enhanced understanding of the tasks of leadership in promoting reform, greater knowledge of changes taking place internationally, and a renewed commitment to working with others to develop their societies.

Strategic Management of Regulatory and Enforcement Agencies


http://ksgexecprogram.harvard.edu/Programs/smre/overview.aspx
Strategic Management of Regulatory and Enforcement Agencies (SMREA) examines the distinctive strategic and managerial challenges that surround government agencies’ regulatory and enforcement functions, focusing on issues of social regulation (the control of risks to society) rather than economic regulation (the control of markets). This course explores the operations and management of regulatory and enforcement agencies rather than the reform of law.


  • What does it mean to adopt a risk-based approach to regulatory policy?

  • What is the full range of tools available to regulatory policymakers to identify and control risks?

  • What are the difficulties of performance measurement in the regulatory domain?

  • How can policymakers develop effective collaborative partnerships with diverse stakeholder groups?

The course will examine some of the current prescriptions for reform (such as customer service orientation and process improvement) in light of the unique task that regulatory agencies face.  We will also focus on the distinctive character of the risk-control task, and pressures for regulators to prove their worth and effectiveness.

Cost: $6,700 (includes tuition, housing, curricular materials, and most meals)

Program highlights include real world application where what is learned can be immediately applied. Supervised fieldwork focused on practical change projects that deliver business results is required. Being a holistic program, both personal and professional development is addressed. The program operates in a cohesive and supportive community. A final project provides evidence of the integration of current standards of effective leadership knowledge and skills.
