The Premier Academy for CEOs and Board Leaders
CEO Academy is an exclusive two-day experience designed for both new and experienced CEOs and board leaders. This isn't just a standard leadership and networking program—it's an elite space where the world's top executives share their wisdom, perspectives and advice to a select group of business leaders to help them navigate the unique challenges of this demanding position.
CEO Academy has developed some of the most successful chief executives and board leaders in the country.
CEO Academy, in partnership with The Wharton School, has emerged as the best refresher course for long-serving CEOs as well as the perfect “war room” training ground for newer CEOs and potential successors.
It has been cited by participating CEOs as the “absolute best program anywhere for CEO preparation” and “nothing compares to it for take-home value and its no-nonsense approach to value creation—even for long-serving CEOs.”

For CEOs, the quest for excellence is unceasing

I realize there are many programs for top executives out there, but if you want to choose the best one, go to the CEO Academy in conjunction with The Wharton School. The take-home value is extraordinary.”
The CEO Academy is far and away the best immersion course for sitting CEOs and succession candidates out there. Its content is relevant, timely and powerful. It is a program that is 'worth its salt.' ”
For me, the CEO Academy is a 'must program' for CEOs dealing with the ever-changing governance and investor landscape. I have served as a panelist discussing investor issues but stuck around after speaking, and I’ve learned a ton beyond the investor landscape just sitting in the room with a world-class group of executives from around the globe.”
The CEO Academy provides corporate executives and directors with a unique and very special venue in which to exchange knowledge and insights about today’s most pressing business issues with Wharton’s top-rated research faculty and the nation’s foremost business leaders.”
