Purpose

Reviews the latest management developments and training programs within the Lufthansa School of Business and the London Business School.

Design/methodology/approach

Under the “Preferred Partnership Concept” the LHSB co‐operates with three internationally‐renowned business schools for major executive training programs. London Business School (LBS) is one of these three contracted partners. The main focus of the partnership is the General Management Programme (GMP), which has now been held successfully in close co‐operation between the LBS and the LHSB for the third time.

Findings

The key to the ongoing success of the GMP has been the communication within the team producing the three live events in three global locations. The program's success is a direct result of the consistency and quality of communication, of team members' desire to continuously improve the modules, project management, the briefing process for presenters (whether faculty members, Lufthansa Board members, guest speakers), and the detailed checklists and scheduling by the LBS Program Manager.

Practical implications

Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.

Originality/value

The paper examines key areas in advanced management training (and development) and highlights two unique and interlinked strategic concepts.
