INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT CALCUTTA
Management Development Program on
Strategic Thinking for Business Leadership January 27-30, 2009
Programme Context
Businesses in India are on a growth path with positive expectations and ambitious investment plans seeking new engagements with global business and markets across the globe. In this new environment, often characterized by enhanced pressures of competition and greater integration across global markets, charting a path of growth would become more challenging. Regulatory changes as well as novel application of information and communication technology is creating new business challenges and possibilities. This new evolving world offers exciting possibilities of growth and profits, but creates new challenges as well. Strategy would take centre-stage in this new world. Designing innovative strategic moves would be important – in opening novel turfs for non-liner expansion and growth or protecting existing domains from threats. This program is aimed at managers in organizations who are currently in roles that require them to handle strategic issues, or managers who are looking to move into such roles. Senior and middle level managers and profit centre heads would find the program particularly useful. The program would emphasize looking at issues from a strategic perspective. Understanding of market rivalries, institutions and power, leaderships and transformations would be a few pivot areas of the program. Several contemporary areas and developments would also be explored. Functional areas, such as marketing, would be explored from a strategic perspective.
The Programme will help in:
(a) Developing a strategic thinking mode – understanding how power is wielded and negotiated in multiple contexts, especially amidst great ‘complexity’. (b) Understanding strategic landscapes of industries, including the interface with law and regulation (c) Discerning the strategic significance of few contemporary developments such as outsourced models of business, vigorous use of informatics, delayering of organizations and so on. (d) Strategizing in a network mode – competition and cooperation
Program faculty
The program will primarily be delivered by the Strategy group, but faculty from other academic groups will also provide inputs. Lectures, case discussions and other interactive modes would be used. A few sessions would be devoted to practitioner interaction as well. The program would be coordinated by Prof Biswatosh Saha and Prof Sushil Khanna of the Strategy Group.
