Manoj Kumar Pandey

Finance Controller, Essentra India Pvt Ltd

"This Programme has helped unleash the thought process required when entering CXO levels. The structure and scope of the programme are designed to align with market needs, and this programme being offered by IIM Calcutta was the icing on the cake. Other programmes were limited to a particular subject like Analytics and Strategic Thinking, but this programme has a mix of all, so it stands out. Further, the classes taken by Prof. Ashok Banerjee and Prof. Koushik Roy were so exciting that we used to wait with excitement. Finally, the campus immersion gave us a 360 degree view of how to look at the same situation from multiple points of view."

Batch: Batch 1

"Post my MBA from NUS Singapore, in May2021, I came across the CFO Programme by IIM Calcutta with the huge opportunity to network amongst the top Finance Leaders in India, which looked exciting, and I jumped in. These weekend online classes were the best learning platforms to enrol for with the IIM Calcutta Brand. The classes, exams, presentations and case studies were well conducted, with a couple of visits to the IIM Calcutta campus (the best part). This CFO batch 1 is very active, and after our graduation, we are looking forward to our first alums meeting in Hyderabad in Feb 2023, and thats one of the best takeaways from the Programme."
