Executive Leadership
Executive Leadership: Preparing for an Uncertain Future provides leaders with the skills necessary to differentiate their organization in an economy governed by uncertainty, increasing competitive threats, and expanding global opportunities.
This online 4-course certificate series is the product of leading faculty from Cornell's highly respected Executive Education programs at the Johnson Graduate School of Management and the School of Hotel Administration. The course content has been honed through experience with major corporate clients and it addresses the issues that are most critical in the development of corporate leaders: the ability to think and plan strategically, make good decisions, and innovate.
In this series, each participant will develop an industry assessment analysis using Porter's Five Forces model, create a competitive analysis of their firm, apply the scenario planning process to their industry and organization, identify trend indicators to monitor, and outline key success factors and core competencies. Participants will practice critically evaluating information, assessing the environmental factors that shape a company's actions and options, generating new ideas for innovation in their organization, and using both informal and formal, mathematical methods for optimizing decision making.
Financial Management
Today, a good idea is not good enough. Leaders must demonstrate that their idea will deliver measurable results to the bottom line. To drive innovation and organizational success, leaders need to make effective business decisions that provide the most economic value to their organizations. To ensure success, they must also effectively communicate and discuss project and investment alternatives with an organization's financial managers.
In many organizations, however, miscommunication and limited access to financial management tools and methods hinder decision-making. The Financial Management Certificate Series provides managers with a financial mindset that addresses these problems and allows them to make better business decisions.
The four courses in this series are designed to demystify financial terminology, assumptions, and concepts for non-financial managers by using easily understood, relevant case examples and engaging, interactive explanations of each concept. The series includes a combination of finance and accounting topics and will enable participants to interpret financial information, assess the costs and benefits of business decisions, and communicate operational and financial strategies.

4-course Certificate in Foodservice Management
8-course Master Certificate in Foodservice Management
These certificates examine the issues and challenges of the foodservice industry and strategies that contribute to a successful foodservice operation. Courses will focus on a systems approach to food service management. Participants will learn how to manage the major areas of menu planning, purchasing, receiving, storage, production, and control systems. They will assess the effectiveness of several foodservice systems, use a service blueprint to improve the service delivery process and increase profits, and examine such variables as client flow, menu planning, dining time, optimal table mix, meal duration, and variable pricing.
Participants taking the Master Certificate in Foodservice Management will also learn about strategies to increase profitability through improved human resource management, financial management, superior service, and creating a competitive marketing position that builds a value perception for their customers.
Once the most effective strategies have been identified, participants will then focus on how to efficiently implement desired changes that result in a measurable improvement of increased market share and revenues for their foodservice operation.
