Yet a culture of learning can only thrive if it leads to business outcomes and impact for the C-Suite and senior management." The first year for FT | IE Corporate Learning Alliance has been marked by the growth in its powerful global alliance of educators, FT journalists and business schools. The Alliance, launched in December 2014 as a joint venture between the Financial Times and IE Business School, combines the academic excellence of some of the best business schools with insights from the FT's award-winning journalism to address real world challenges for the world's leading companies. John Ridding, CEO of the Financial Times, says: "Bringing FT journalists from the newsroom to the boardroom adds a new and unique dimension to custom executive learning. The resulting programme equips leaders with valuable context and a deeper understanding of the real-time challenges and opportunities facing their business and sector." The partnership is further powered by a Global Educator Network, an international group of more than 500 experts from a diverse range of fields, 95 percent of whom are from one of the top three business schools in their countries. Santiago Iñiguez, Dean of the IE Business School, says: "We are proud to build on the entrepreneurial heritage of the IE Business School and to be part of an unrivalled global alliance of world-class schools." The Corporate Learning Alliance continues to grow and now includes such partners as Imperial College Business School (United Kingdom), EGADE Business School (Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico) and the Yale School of Management (United States).
