"This is an intense and inspiring week and a well-structured program that covers the long journey from idea generation to market success, embedding the many facets of innovation and entrepreneurship into a bigger picture. It provides insights into both worlds: the small startup and the large organization. A world-class faculty, supported from excellent guest speakers from the Silicon Valley scene and beyond. This course will definitely support and improve my future work."
"This program is an opportunity to share and learn from experience of senior managers from all around the globe. The program combines experienced tutors and practitioners from the Silicon Valley providing a unique mix that boosts your creativity and thinking about the implementation of the knowledge you have just learned."
"I had a wonderful, enriching experience at the Boot Camp for Experienced Managers. The training was a nice blend of theory and practical examples. It was very rewarding to connect with like-minded folks and discuss my organizational issues, and to listen to their ideas. I have already highly recommended this training to my colleagues."
"It’ll be the best one week of school you’ve had, ever. You’ll emerge at the end of the program as a Berkeley leader, ready to create change and to better our world."
"This program was one of the most thought-provoking and learning experiences I ever had in my life. The wisdoms gained will guide me and help me stay focused in my journey of becoming a better and transformative leader, making a positive impact in the lives of people around me."
"Leaders rise by lifting others up. I encourage everyone whether holding formal leadership positions or not, to take this program which can provide the right guidance to steer you to become a great leader. Our society need more leaders who can lead with empathy and make a difference. Thank you, Maura & the whole BEXL team!"
"The course provided useful tools to accompany some of the intuitions I had about managing. It also validated some of the tough decisions I've made and makes me more confident in my skills as a manager."
"This course was like an intensive self-help session for your professional career. Take it early on to prevent forming poor habits and improve your self-awareness to how your leadership style affects the team around you. I appreciated the straightforward delivery of only the most important content. Eye-opening!"
"I highly recommend this program for all managers! I learned practical tools to implement with my team and gained great insights into my strengths and areas to focus on improving as a leader."
"This course did a great job of helping me define what a good manager is and then sparking self-reflection on how I stack up to that definition."
"It is one of the best courses I have attended (out of 20+) and the closest online course I have attended to my full-time MBA experience. Great work Berkeley! The quality of the course along with the numerous frameworks shared during the program helped me rethink my work and will be very useful in the long run as I am interacting more with PMs for early innovation projects. It is also one of the first online courses I am taking (out of 20+) where the school faculty is engaged on a weekly basis (usually, we only have interactions with TAs)."
"It surpassed what I was expecting. The level of care and detail in all aspects of the course were really good, and is now helping me in my day-to-day. Even if you're a seasoned negotiator, I promise you'll learn a lot about influencing others and negotiation."
You will be exposed to insightful content and excellent tools that you can apply and use regularly inside your company. You will enhance the knowledge you already got from your working experience, and you will learn how to articulate and manage products, services, and teams from a more holistic point of view.
"The most impressive, life-transforming program I ever attended. The description on the site doesn't even cover 10% of what we get, in knowledge and experience. The program transformed me in more than a few ways, and it made me a better human being, which, I think, it's the biggest compliment I can give it. Maura is just incredible, as well as the rest of the speakers, teachers, leaders that shared their experience and their teachings with us. The connection and experience will continue after the course, with the most amazing cohort I could have imagined."
"It gave me some solid, actionable advice on improving my presentations."
