Today, young professionals take higher role and managerial responsibilities much earlier in their career. Many of them also work for startups and SMEs where they need to go beyond their technical knowledge and have big picture of the business. In such situations, young leaders struggle and often confused whether they are on the right path while taking decisions. They look for support to speed up their learning curve and to take informed decisions with confidence. IIMB with its close association and interaction with industries over the last four decades understands this challenge and offers this unique programme for today’s young leaders. The programme provides a strong foundation in management and creates confidence in handling tough problems.
