Di Close, in collaboration with Di Akademi and River Jump, has launched an Executive Education Core MBA program. Designed for senior managers with limited time, the curriculum is described by Niklas Grewin, business manager at Di Close, as a “driver’s licence” for business leadership.

The program offers a condensed format consisting of five two-day modules spread over approximately one year. This totals ten days of instruction, which is significantly shorter than the 50–60 days typically required for traditional MBA programs. The curriculum serves as a foundational framework rather than a narrow specialization, allowing executives to strengthen leadership skills while maintaining their professional duties.

This initiative aims to address common barriers associated with traditional MBA programs, which are often criticized for being expensive and requiring significant time away from professional responsibilities. By focusing on ten days of essential, high-relevance content, the program allows managers to balance education with their ongoing professional duties. Dagens industri has reported on the launch of this concentrated leadership program.
