Leading Businesses


This international program, aimed at executives, business leaders and strategic decision-makers, arises at a time when organizations face unprecedented
levels of geopolitical, technological, economic and social disruption. Its objective is clear: to prepare leaders to navigate uncertainty, make strategic decisions in complex contexts and lead their organizations with impact, ethics and long-term vision.


Academic leadership with business DNA

The program is directed by Sérgio Almeida, Founder of SEAL Group, and Ricardo Morais, Professor at CPBS, bringing to the academic context a strong connection to business practice, humanist leadership and organizational transformation, reflecting the commitment of Católica Porto Business School to partnerships with real market experience, capable of crossing strategy, talent, culture, technology and values — critical dimensions for leading in times of global disruption.

“Leading in a world in disruption requires more than management tools. It requires awareness, courage, systemic thinking and the ability to align people, purpose and performance.” Sérgio Almeida, Program Director
