Be future-prepared in a changing global economy

Geoeconomic shifts now determine market access, competitive position, and strategic freedom of action, and traditional strategy and risk frameworks most organisations rely on were never built for this. This programme changes that, equipping senior leaders with the tools, language, and analytical rigour to integrate geoeconomic reality into the decisions that define their organisation's future.

Developed by Hanken & SSE Executive Education and the Economic Security Forum (Mikael Wigell and Christian Fjäder), where academic depth meets practitioner precision.

Built for CEOs, CFOs, CROs, CSOs, strategy and business development leaders who

  • Shape long-term positioning beyond near-term risk response
  • Are making decisions on capital, markets, supply chains and partnerships, in an environment existing frameworks were not built for
  • Want to have a clear strategic agenda, not just a sharper understanding of the problem

Why companies join multi-company programmes

A multi-company programme brings together 5–8 non-competing organisations, each sending 3–5 participants, to learn around a shared strategic theme.

Companies value this format because it offers more than learning alone:

  • Better decisions through broader perspectives and stronger systems thinking
  • Strategic networking and peer dialogue across organisations facing similar challenges
  • Cross-company benchmarking to test assumptions and compare approaches
  • A trusted space to learn, unlearn and challenge ideas with a curated peer group
  • A shared investment and immediate practical impact through work on real company priorities
  • Valuable relationships that last beyond the programme
