GroupM are a world-leading advertising and marketing agency and in partnership with Excel Communications, their training partner of choice, we developed the Leadership Momentum Programme. This prestigious programme has now developed over 100 leaders within the group and we continue to see how ‘life-changing’ the experience is and how it plays an integral part in the careers of its alumni. In this video you’ll meet Ben Kwan who is now Managing Director of mPlatform Services in Switzerland. Ben takes us through how the programme has contributed to his success and the positive impact it continues to have on his development today.
“I strongly recommend the services provided by Excel Communications. For the past 7 years, Excel Communications assisted GroupM EMEA in the design and running of a prestigious leadership programme. At no time have they failed me, or more importantly the participants to the leadership programme itself. They have been a reliable, flexible and agile partner throughout from bringing them onboard and in providing valuable feedback and insights to how the programme should evolve each year to meet the needs in our changing world. They brought expertise and superb facilitators for an internationally led programme with cohort attendance made up of people from multiple countries. The programme aligned and targeted the aims in exactly the right way, which resulted in GroupM providing a rich learning and development experience as well as allowing GroupM to hone and develop its future leaders and internal succession pipeline. I therefore strongly recommend their services.”

The training received through the Momentum programme really allowed me to have a moment to reflect and to understand what I needed to change about myself in order to help me realise the goals that I would love to see happen in the broader organisation. It influenced me not only professionally but definitely personally.

In my perspective I think individuals should join the Momentum programme to better understand not only themselves but also receive the skills and coaching techniques to help set the vision of how to lead an organisation through the best and worst of times.
