The GlaxoSmithKline Executive Management Program for Pharmacy Leaders is unique for requiring the attendance of the participant's direct supervisor or administrator during the last two and a half days of the program – the Executive Forum.  The reason for this requirement is simple: we want to encourage participants to apply what they have learned during their time here at Wharton to a specific management challenge in their organization. To do this we ask each participant to talk with his/her supervisor/administrator prior to arrival on campus to identify the management challenge(s) that they will attend to upon their return.

The program has, since its inception, been generously sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceuticals.  All tuition, course materials, special events and most meals are covered by this sponsorship.  Participants are responsible for travel, lodging and residual meals.
