The Advanced Management Programme (AMP) is designed for senior executives and emerging leaders. It equips them with abilities to lead organisations and take on general management and corporate level responsibilities. It helps develop skill sets, knowledge and perspectives to lead organisations to exceptional performance and value creation.

Leaders of organisations are responsible for understanding the interests of shareholders and stakeholders. They need to envisage the organisation as a whole, and develop the structures, processes and ethos within the organisation to realise its goals. An organisation is embedded in a larger economic, social and political context. The leader has to have the skills to create and develop teams, translate the vision into distinct goals, and then motivate people to achieve these goals. Additionally, being able to develop the big picture, while having a sense of the details, marks out the leader for success in an ever-changing and unpredictable tomorrow.

The programme is aimed at developing the personal leadership and management skills of participants to take ownership of organisations and lead with confidence.

The AMP is also a platform that enables an interactive learning experience where participants imbibe much from each other. It gives an opportunity to the participants to refresh and update their knowledge through in-depth discussions of business scenarios, and develop analytical and decision-making skills. The AMP is a long duration programme. It is designed for reflective learning. It works best when participants take ownership of their development.

Is the programme right for me?

Applicants should have at least 10 years of work and management experience at significant levels of responsibility within their organisation. Participants from all industries and companies of all sizes will find this programme valuable.

How it works uniquely for each participant

For 12 months, participants will immerse themselves in the process of learning with a diverse group of executives, and faculty of IIM Ahmedabad who bring years of experience in teaching and in guiding organisations. In engagement with peers and faculty, they will acquire the insights, management skills, and perspectives to lead and manage an organisation.

The programme includes a personalised one-on-one 360-degree leadership and personality assessment module designed to prompt introspection. Participants develop insights about themselves and their leadership capabilities. This puts each participant on a journey of self-driven change, as a person, and as a professional in a variety of contexts.

Unique value

The AMP is an exceptional opportunity for personal and professional growth. It enables participants to think, manage and compete strategically. Immersed in AMP, each participant will learn to:

  • evaluate and improve a firm’s performance by analysing its financial statements,
  • develop a business strategy by recognising competitive forces,
  • identify economic trends that influence industry performance,
  • identify, manage and develop organisational business capabilities,
  • develop personal leadership skills to manage organisation development,
  • raise resources for execution of strategy, and
  • do this in an emerging and evolving digital world.

AMP is an investment in the future because of:

  • a relevant curriculum,

  • intensive learning,

  • peer network,

  • duration that evokes reflection, and

  • access to quality resources.

The case study method is central to the learning experience at IIM Ahmedabad. Cases bring real-life business situations to the classroom and present the decision-making context to participants. They spark discussions, motivating participants to analyse and share their individual perspectives about the decision, decision efficacy and cost effectiveness. This broadens perspectives and brings a shared understanding of multiple business contexts. Effective learning requires participants to do an in-depth case preparation before the sessions.
