Advanced Management Programme – Batch 21 (AMP21)

"The course has not only helped me understand my role as a leader and reflect on the skills required to become a good leader but also improved my world view. Along with classroom learning there was a lot of peer learning as the cohort was carefully selected from different industries which enhanced the learning experience. The international immersion week at St. Gallen (Switzerland) gave us a first-hand perspective on the way the world economy is evolving and Switzerlands contribution to the world economy. I will recommend this course for all senior leaders and entrepreneurs."

"After spending about 18-19 years in the industry, I felt it was important to go back to academics and apprise myself of the evolving trends in business today, including economic, digital and strategic themes that have gained traction in recent years and also prepare myself for more senior leadership positions. I was looking for a program that combined the best of both worlds excellent academic credentials and great industry connect. The Advanced Management Program from IIM Bangalore was best placed in this regard. The program put together a senior accomplished cohort of talented individuals from different fields. The various modules were curated with an aim of establishing business financestrategy fundamentals in the first few months and then moving to larger relevant themes of digitisation, platforms, entrepreneurship and leadership. There were complimented with modules on macro and international economics that framed the geopolitical perspective. I also had the opportunity to attend the week-long international immersion at the University of St Gallen, Switzerland covering topics as diverse as Leadership, China, international manufacturing and supply chain and global innovation. It was a fabulous experience. The AMP has been a truly transformative experience, yet one that was both challenging and rigorous, and certainly one that expanded my professional network and gave me friends and memories for a lifetime."

"After 20 years in the workforce, enrolling in a rigorous program like AMP which is targeted towards developing senior leaders, helped me get back on the learning track. Faculty put together a workable weekend schedule for the cohort. The program content was organised into broad areas and the faculty was accommodating to the learning needs of the class. Adequate focus is on Finance, Strategy, Marketing, Innovation and Org Design. The learning is by way of case studies that enable a better understanding of concepts frameworks and how to apply them in real life. The varied experiences of the cohort lend to a healthy debate and class discussions that exposes one to different viewpoints and help think laterally. The Capstone project and the main Project help in applying and solidifying the knowledge gained with guidance from the mentors. Overall a rigorous program with support from the distinguished IIMB faculty and my fellow participants made it an unforgettable and an invaluable experience."
