Pandemics, successive complexities, new technologies and increasing digitisation have redefined the way we live, work and consume. The marketing landscape, consumer needs and perceptions have been profoundly affected by these changes, which require rapid and intelligent adaptation.
The Open Programme in Marketing Management is designed to meet this need, providing managers and professionals with the tools and skills to successfully meet these challenges.
The course aims to provide Managers and Professionals with the operational tools and strategic knowledge to manage the consumer, value levers and business plan.
The programme will focus on these three pillars (consumer, customer relationship, digitisation), thus providing a systematic view of how the marketing management process can be translated into operational results.
Course participants will also improve their skills by exchanging perspectives and opinions with university lecturers, managers and business consultants working in this field. Together with them, participants will discuss meaningful experiences for different types of business.
The training course consists of 6 classroom days on Fridays and Saturdays.
