Dynamic Management is a unique blend of academic research, practical knowledge, and improvisation techniques that creates a powerful learning experience. This program improves your overall management and leadership skills by training you to benefit from intuitive judgment, leverage available resources and act in the moment. Participants refine their abilities to respond to unanticipated challenges, promote innovation, and creative problem solving, build trust and teamwork, and foster better communication.
To learn more about the Dynamic Management program, participate in an online virtual information session, and visit the Experience page.
This program provides creative approaches to improving your general management and leadership skills while working within dynamic (and sometimes chaotic) business environments. In such settings, managers must rely on intuitive judgment, leverage available resources, and act decisively in the moment.
Duke faculty members explore applied management theory through group discussions and interactive sessions that blend traditional improvisation exercises with applied business simulations. Learn more about the improv exercises and their application to business.
