IIM Lucknow, in collaboration with Imarticus Learning, one of India’s front-running professional education firms, has launched its global senior leadership programme to upskill professional managers who have atleast 5-year professional experience and are aspiring to secure leadership positions in Finance, HR, Operations, and Marketing functions.

This programme aims to inculcate in the professional managers the required expertise to navigate the challenges in the field and acquire proficiency in engaging with other CXOs within and outside the organisation. The learning experience involves two tracks. The first track involves training for core general management skills, and the second track prepares professionals for skills required to transition into the role of a CFO or a CMO or a CHRO or a COO.

Additionally, 11 masterclass sessions from existing CXOs will focus on helping those enrolled learn about the real-life applications of knowledge.

The programme includes a world class business simulation game where participants acquire decision-making skills for a general management role across marketing, operations, finance, HR and International business functions.

The programme is designed to provide executives a focused know-how to operate businesses across the Middle East, India and South Asia regions. The 10-day campus immersion session at IIM Lucknow will help students build a network, which is essential to secure career growth opportunities. Along with this, the participants also earn executive alumni status of IIM Lucknow on successful completion of the programme.
