The Edinburgh Institute offers you a ‘full-service’ leadership and management development business. We bring together quality teams across disciplines, sectors, countries and types of service. There are six areas in particular where we have leading research and service capability.
Edinburgh Napier University is renowned for fostering new businesses and teaching entrepreneurship. So it’s no surprise that this is a principal focus of the Institute’s development work. We excel in innovation & creativity, strategic audits, growth mapping and selling skills.
Given Edinburgh Napier University’s origins as an international commercial college, it’s no surprise that we are at the forefront of research, teaching and consultancy in financial services and accountancy. We are especially proud of our accountancy research and teaching in Asia-Pacific, the number of our academics who have worked at senior levels in the financial services industry and our connections with the industry’s professional bodies and networks.
We draw upon Edinburgh’s tradition of hosting international festivals and events to offer a full range of research, knowledge, consultancy and teaching services in this growing field of management. We draw upon senior past and present Edinburgh Festival staff to work in Canada, Australia, Dubai, the UK and Asia-Pacific - helping other cities learn how to run successful festival and major events.
