Young Patrons Programme
“Rising to the Challenge of 21st Century International Business”
The BSCC YPP provides a stimulating learning and networking forum for emergent managerial talent within Patron organisations. The programme consists of a series of related seminars designed to highlight the challenge of managing increasingly complex landscape of 21st century business. With an emphasis on knowledge sharing, it is intended that the YPP will also provide the perfect opportunity to nurture the Patron member network of tomorrow.
The YPP consists of 5 seminars: four hosted at member facilities in Stockholm; the fifth held with BSCC’s partner organisations in London. Commencing with individual responsibility and professional development, the programme quickly expands into the challenges presented by macro-environmental strategic developments such as digitalization and sustainability. And, then further, into the existential challenge facing strategic orthodoxy in present-day business.

THE PROGRAMME
SEMINAR 1 - INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
With global competition for highly skilled talent, there exists greater executive mobility than ever before. But, while businesses are having to work harder to attract and retain the best and brightest, individual executives also have to rise to the challenge of increased workplace demands and professional competition. This session will focus on individual level responsibility and the need to compete.
SEMINAR 2 - DIGITALISATION & TRANSFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGY
Today, with advances in AI, machine learning, and quantum computing, we can expect the pace of disruption and transformation in many established markets to only accelerate. This session will focus on what we can do to come to terms with radical change and the potential for transformative business generation and renewal.
SEMINAR 3 - GLOBAL BUSINESS & SUSTAINABILITY
Most multinational corporations integrate sustainability principles in their governance frameworks, and many invest significantly more than is required for the purposes of straightforward reputation management. The reason, aside from simply “doing good”, is simple: Increasing numbers of businesses are discovering that sustainability can also be very good for business.
SEMINAR 4 - STRATEGIES IN UNCERTAIN TIMES
As markets become more dynamic, and disruptive entrants destabilize once impregnable industries, many of the strategic orthodoxies that have guided managers in the past, are being called into question today. How can managers respond to the reality of global complexity and uncertainty and, simultaneously, deliver clarity and meaningful control.
SEMINAR 5 - YPP LONDON DELEGATION
A delegation to London that is arranged around meetings and seminars with BSCC members och partners.
*All events are by invitation only.
