About
CEL™ is the proven new business creation program for managers who wish to learn how to turn ideas into profitable businesses.
To stay ahead in an increasingly competitive market space, established companies need to be able to renew their focus and find new business opportunities while, at the same time, optimizing their core business.
Expanding and renewing a company’s core business is remarkably different from optimizing it. You will learn how to handle this dichotomy through the CEL™ Program.
As a CEL™ Program participant you will learn how to clarify ideas, how to incubate and mature these ideas into businesses, and ultimately how to accelerate them to enhance company growth. You will also learn how to navigate new business projects in an organization with a highly optimized core business.
CEL™ is action learning based, meaning that you will apply your gained knowledge to a specific project in your company. This allows you to create direct value for your company throughout the program. Class structure is team based with a maximum of 10 company teams, of 2-3 participants each, working on a new business creation project for their company.
The core concepts of the program are based on the findings of cutting edge research from USA and Europe on how companies renew their core business. The program draws upon highly experienced international experts from the world’s leading business schools who both teach and coach participants in how to apply what they learn to their specific projects.
