The experience
The 2025 programme consists of two residential modules, each lasting three days, in April and July, followed by a one-day London-based session in November.
MLP brings marketing leaders together to prepare for their next leadership role. Leading in uncertain times is challenging, the essence of the programme remains to nurture great talent and enable them to be at their best more of the time.
You will have the opportunity to work in pairs, in challenge and support groups as well as experience group coaching. Delegates will leave with a ready-made support network of marketing leaders who they can learn from long after the programme has ended.
The inspiring roll call of senior marketers who coach our attendees reads like a who's who of the industry, with an alumni which includes McDonald’s Jill McDonald, BBC's Kerris Bright, McDonald's Alistair Macrow, moneysupermarket's Peter Duffy, Just Eat's (non-exec) Roisin Donnelly, Unilever’s Aline Santos, Channel 4’s Zaid Al-Qassab and so many more.
