Development programs
Why us?
We specialize in management, economic, and financial development programs. Unlike in the case of most training companies, our instructors have a very extensive scientific knowledge and carry out research in the broadly understood field of management themselves. This approach lets us argue and explain WHY we should act in a specific way during our workshops. Only when the training participants understand WHY something works, they change their attitude and become convinced that it is actually reasonable to act differently in their professional setting and in their relationships with other people. Our academic teachers and coaches, apart from being engaged in teaching and scientific projects, have extensive practical experience in many industries thanks to having worked for global corporations and consulting companies. They are therefore able to draw on their practical experience and their scientific work at the same time to familiarize training participants with both the techniques and the motivation behind their actions. They are also able to work with attitudes and behaviors, making use of real-life examples.
At Kozminski University we educate senior- and middle-level managers employed at national and international institutions and corporations. Our development projects broaden the horizons and develop the skills of employees. Each development program takes into account the individual needs, the interests, and the preferences of the client organization.
Development programs for business
Development programs are individually designed training and consulting programs for companies, delivered in close collaboration between Kozminski University’s coaches and academics and the client.
We start from an analysis of the organization’s needs and use the results of the diagnosis to recommend actions aimed at achieving the expected development goals for both individuals – managers – and the entire organization. Then, we design appropriate modules interconnected with each other to form a consistent whole.

Project Management Academy
The awareness of the role and significance of the project approach in companies is growing. However, in order for the adoption of project work standards to actually increase the effectiveness of a company’s operations, it is important to promote project thinking across the entire organization. Kozminski University adopts a comprehensive approach to client-companies’ needs related to training and education in the area of project management. We put emphasis on both the acquisition of as much knowledge as possible and on the improvement of competence in project management. For it is not knowledge itself but the competence of project managers, understood as the application of knowledge, skills, and abilities in order to achieve the desired results, which is of great value in the world of VUCA – volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.
