They must shape strategy, drive change, and scale teams, all while navigating legacy constraints, performance demands, and organizational complexity.
That’s why we launched Wintercircus Academy, a learning space where tomorrow’s tech leaders learn from the real-world experiences of today’s trailblazers.
The course format includes:
A deep dive into real-world decisions, trade-offs, and lessons learned.
A moderated, open conversation exploring broader challenges, best practices, and peer insights.
A participant-driven discussion that connects the case to individual realities and cross-company hurdles.
Wintercircus Academy aims to combine practical, cutting-edge cases from the Wintercircus network with the academic expertise of Vlerick. The goal is to elevate our technical leaders to a higher level in a world that is evolving faster than ever — technically speaking. Together, we aim to set a new standard in leadership development for tech talent in Europe and beyond.
