Selection process
Step One
Participants for each course are carefully selected to create a diverse group covering: industry sector, gender, age, geographic location and leadership experience.
Step Two
Referees will be contacted in some cases to gain a greater understanding of an individual’s motivation for wanting to join the programme.
Step Three
Successful applicants are advised of their application outcome at least two months before the programme’s start date. Applicants then have 5 – 7 days to confirm their acceptance.
Unsuccessful Applicants
Unsuccessful applicants are notified after all programme places are filled, e.g. 5-7 days after offers have been made.
It is recommended that unsuccessful applicants who met the entry criteria, reapply for a position on the next preferred course. First consideration is usually given to these applicants.
Non acceptance is often be due to the mix of applicants on the programme, e.g. the number of applicants from the same sector.
How to write a successful application.
The Kellogg Application process is a merit based selection process.
When completing your application try to show examples of how you have stepped forward in leadership roles outside of your work.
We would also like to know what your future aspirations are, for example, how you want to change and influence your sector. Don’t forget to talk about how you want to change and grow as a leader too.
