2009 News Release
BusinessWeek Survey Ranks Center for Creative Leadership Among World's Best in Executive Education
November 6, 2009 - Greensboro, NC - The Center for Creative Leadership (CCL®) ranked among the world's top providers of executive education in a biennial BusinessWeek survey released today.
BusinessWeek rated CCL No. 3 worldwide for Custom programs, up five spots from 2007. In the Open-Enrollment category, CCL ranked No. 5 after not being ranked in 2007.
CCL, which provides leadership training worldwide from its offices in Asia, Europe and North America, is the only institution in the survey that focuses exclusively on leadership education and research. The BusinessWeek rankings were based on surveys of organizations from around the world that rated leading executive education providers, such as Harvard, Duke and Wharton, for quality and impact.
"We're grateful for the feedback our clients have given us through this survey," CCL President John Ryan said. "These results are a credit to my very talented colleagues at CCL. The rankings confirm that our work has lasting impact on our clients, and we look forward to serving them even more effectively in the years ahead."
BusinessWeek is the second major news outlet this year to give CCL high marks. In May, the Financial Times ranked CCL No. 6 worldwide in executive education.
