Stimulating growth is an economic priority for many countries, regions, and cities. Yet many are trapped, lacking the productive capability to solve problems and expand to new industries to drive development.
LEG is a 10-week online HKS Executive Education program, co-chaired by Ricardo Hausmann and Matt Andrews, that examines new approaches to rethink economic strategies and build organizations that are capable of unlocking new prosperity.
The curriculum provides sophisticated tools for diagnosis, decision making, and implementation. We’ve transformed our cutting-edge research and frameworks into easily digestible formats for anyone struggling with the question of growth. You could be working in the private or nonprofit sectors, in government, or for a multilateral organization, focused on a country, region, or city. If you’re saying we need to grow more, we need to grow in different ways, in different locations, for the benefit of different peoples—this course is for you.
The concepts and frameworks you learn will allow you to develop a set of policies and tools to define your growth problem, detect constraints to growth, and design solutions to unlock growth. Through peer learning groups and live class sessions, you will apply the frameworks and tools to your own economic growth challenge.
