corporate leadership team
Explanation:
While "group management" is a perfectly correct translation, some companies do not use it because these days it sounds a bit old-fashioned and hierarchical. One alternative is "leadership team", and a good example of that usage is General Electric (where I used to work, though not in the leadership team). See refs.
