Executive General Management Programme
(EGMP)
For the practicing managers in today’s business
environment, what has become most crucial is the
ability to manage the change. Meeting and measuring
up to this emerging challenge is the prime function of
today’s managers. To do this, they require keen percep-
tion, flexibility and the ability to merge management
theories into action plans.
EGMP is a part-time certificate programme that has
been designed for high performing functional manag-
ers, who are looking for a transition from a functional
role to a general management role. EGMP is equally
relevant for those fast-track managers, who have
recently taken charge of a general management role, in
terms of equipping themselves with the ability to cope
up with responsibilities and issues at senior levels
through formal management education. Participants of
EGMP get an opportunity to develop core business
skills and competencies in various functional areas, this
would enable them to handle issues involving cross -
functional areas. The EGMP brings together partici-
pants from diverse backgrounds, skills and experi-
ences; and develops in them cross-functional skills.
Eminent faculty of IIMB covers the curriculum. EGMP
participants involve themselves actively in case studies
and discussions, role-plays, games, etc. They benefit
immensely through continuous learning and networking
with peers from different backgrounds, during and after
the programme.
