Indore ; The Indian Institute of Management Indore (IIM Indore) has introduced a new Executive Programme in Business Management, a 10-month course designed to equip mid-career professionals with the essential skills to navigate the evolving business landscape. The programme, offered in collaboration with Emeritus, focuses on developing leaders who can integrate core business competencies with digital transformation strategies.
Meeting the Needs of the Future Workforce
As highlighted in the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2023, over 85% of organisations emphasize the adoption of new technologies and expanding digital access as key drivers of transformation. This, alongside a growing focus on ESG standards and workforce development, underscores the need for leaders who can balance short-term and long-term business goals. The Executive Programme in Business Management from IIM Indore, ranked 8th in the Ministry of Education's NIRF 2024 rankings, aims to address this gap.
Programme Structure and Target Audience
The programme is specifically designed for mid-career professionals looking to transition into management roles, early managers and team leaders seeking a broader understanding of business functions, and consultants or entrepreneurs needing critical management insights. The course takes a unique approach by fostering a growth mindset that encourages participants to learn, unlearn, and relearn essential business principles.
According to Professor Himanshu Rai, Director of IIM Indore, “In today's rapidly shifting market dynamics, the need for adaptable and forward-thinking leaders is more vital than ever.
