IIM Nagpur launches 8th batch of Senior Management Programme to empower professionals with strategic insights & leadership skills

The Indian Institute of Management Nagpur, a pioneering institution among the third-generation IIMs, has commenced admissions for the eighth batch of the Senior Management Programme.

This 12-month programme is meticulously designed to equip mid-to-senior level professionals with the skills and strategic insights required to ascend to leadership roles, enabling them to guide their organizations toward sustained growth and innovation.

According to PwC India’s Crisis and Resilience Survey 2023, 52 percent of organisations cited upskilling future leaders as one of the top three critical elements in future-proofing their resilience.

The survey underscores the importance of leaders developing three essential components: integration, leadership and operational resilience.

Furthermore, research commissioned by UST, a leading digital transformation solutions company, indicates that while most organisations have embraced artificial intelligence (AI), they lack a skilled AI workforce.

Harvard Business Review notes that inclusive leadership, strategic agility, conflict management and emotional and social intelligence are among the top skills needed for the future of work.

In an era of global uncertainties, organisations and professionals are increasingly mandated to enhance their skill sets and prepare a future-ready workforce.

The IIM Nagpur Senior Management Programme is designed to equip learners with the necessary skills to develop emerging leaders, gain cross-functional knowledge, and acquire strategic insights through interactive teaching methodologies.

They will also learn to leverage data and digital trends to make impactful decisions that ensure sustainability and drive effective growth.

The programme's three core modules—'Leading and Managing in Today’s Business World,' 'Building Financial Acumen and Mastering Global Business Strategies,' and 'People, Profit and Sustainability: HR, Growth Strategies and Enterprise Risk Management'—comprise 16 core concepts that serve as the gateway for future leaders. These modules will help learners transition from managing specific roles to leading organisations.

Speaking at the announcement, Dr. Metri Bhimaraya, Director, IIM Nagpur, said, “The IIM Nagpur-TimesPro Senior Management Programme is a significant offering for contemporary business professionals aiming to ensure sustainable growth and advance their careers. The three modules will equip professionals with critical skill sets, positioning them for global roles and enabling them to contribute significantly to organisational transformation and strategic growth.”

Sunil Sood, Chief Growth & Partnership Officer, TimesProsaid, “Our collaboration with IIM Nagpur is instrumental in providing an exceptional executive learning experience for professionals aspiring to leadership roles and sustained growth. The skills and concepts imparted over the 12-month programmewill enhance their competencies, enabling them to overcome business challenges and drive organisational growth.”

The Senior Management Programme is ideally suited for professionals with a minimum of 10 years of work experience who seek to add cutting-edge skills to their repertoire.

Previous cohorts have included a diverse group of Vice Presidents, Assistant Vice Presidents, Directors, General Managers, Heads, Senior Managers, and Managers from sectors such as Information Technology, BFSI, Engineering, Automotive, Healthcare, Retail, Manufacturing, Transport, Education, and Hospitality.

The programme also features a three-day campus immersion, during which participants will engage in group projects and assignments. Additionally, they will benefit from weekly ‘Chamber Consulting’ sessions with faculty members.

The programme integrates a cutting-edge curriculum with live online lectures, real-world case studies, interactive sessions, simulations, group projects, roleplays, and more.

It will be delivered via an Interactive Learning (IL) platform in Direct-to-Device (D2D) mode. Successful learners will earn the prestigious IIM Nagpur Executive Education Alumni status.
