About Programme

The context of business in today's world is unavoidably global. Every product or service has some element of globalization that has touched it at some stage. It is often challenging to identify a "purely domestic" product or service that does not rely on some input of a global nature. Globalization refers to the broad phenomenon wherein not only are national economies across the world merging into an interdependent and integrated global economic system through a decline in cross-border barriers to trade, but also to the phenomenon of shrinking distances in respect of languages, cultures, and time zones through improvements in technology and transportation. Businesses today are affected not only by globalization but by deglobalization as well. No manager can afford to remain oblivious to the undeniably global nature of today's business context.

The Executive Programme in Global Business Management is designed to provide managers with the knowledge and skills necessary for success in international markets. Programme has a focus on business fundamentals in the context of International markets addressing the pros and cons of global business. The program aims to nurture the skills required for cultivating a global mindset in the organization for business integration and improved responsiveness. The program therefore emphasizes on Global business strategy along with sustainability, a very important SDG goal in today’s context, international marketing, Indian Economy along with International Economy, Challenges of HR and organization in the global context, International Finance, Cross-cultural barriers and role of communication and ethics in this globalized world and more.

Managers of multinational companies currently working in the Indian space and Indian companies with global presence would find this Programme relevant. Early to middle-level managers who have begun to encounter globalization's challenges in their roles, teams, and businesses seeking conceptual understanding, illustrative cases, and practical frameworks that can be applied for solutions to some grappling issues will find this Programme highly educative.
