Organizations often face a familiar problem.

Strategy plans exist, yet results fall short.

The Executive Program in Strategy and Performance by The KPI Institute responds to this gap through a structured learning experience designed for professionals in leadership and advisory roles.

The holistic program leads to a Graduate Certificate in Strategy and Performance, which focuses on core areas such as planning, performance measurement, data analysis, and execution practices. It runs across two semesters over 12 months. Participants complete four mandatory courses and a final practitioner portfolio built on 20 assignments tied to real business scenarios.

The integrated curriculum reflects the practical demands of a strategy and performance management course. Participants work through business planning, KPI selection, performance system design, and agile execution practices. Each course combines live online sessions with individual assignments and guided exercises. The final portfolio requires direct application of concepts in a real organizational context.

The learning format allows flexibility. Professionals can choose course dates based on their schedule. Each session brings a mix of participants from different industries and regions, which supports discussion grounded in varied experience.
