The Vlerick approach
Vlerick bridges theory and practice -- which, among other ways, is expressed in:
- the balance between scientific underpinnings and a practice-oriented approach;
- active teaching techniques -- such as case studies, simulations, questionnaires, action plans, etc. -- that promote maximum anchoring of the knowledge;
- small groups (max. 25 participants) that, through optimum interactivity, guarantee involvement and successful translation to the participants' own organisations;
- the modular and residential character that stimulates sharing of experience, networking and reflection;
- the experienced Vlerick Leuven Gent Management School professors, who conduct the entire training programme both in the selection of content as well as didactically, guided by a dedicated programme coordinator.
Doelgroep

Self-Management Track
In addition to the modules, all participants go through a self-management track based on a Personal Development Plan and consisting of 3 key pillars:
* a group coaching session
* individual coaching with a Vlerick coach
* an internal coach with the organisation
Goal of the group coaching session is to make participants familiar with the coaching model in practice and to provide them with a toolkit to translate areas of improvement to smart action points.
While the Vlerick coach serves as an external sounding board, the “internal” coach makes sure that the coaching is translated into actual practice. The internal coach is invited to the beginning and the end of the programme, where he/she receives a framework for guiding the young manager optimally throughout the training.
Project conducted in teams
Small teams develop a business case - this fosters an innovative openness and anchors all aspects that have been covered during the programme. Via evening sessions in each module, the teams receive new input regarding entrepreneurship and the preparation of a business case.
