General Management Programme (GMP) is one of the flagship executive programmes designed, developed and offered by IIMA. The GMP, a 23 days long intensive programme delivered in Dubai (Batch – 18), has been designed & adapted to the region to enhance the managerial capabilities of participants to prepare them to shoulder senior general management responsibilities in the future.
The Programme, designed for middle to senior managers, emphasises the problem-solving approach–the process of defining problems, specifying objectives, developing alternative courses of action, choosing the best alternative in an uncertain environment, organising people to implement the chosen alternative, coordinating their work, motivating, inspiring, and developing them, and finally measuring and controlling their performance.
• Enhance managerial skills of the participants to prepare them to shoulder higher responsibilities.
• Provide participants with an opportunity to learn management concepts and techniques relevant for formulating & implementing strategies in functional & general management areas.
• Enable the participants to appreciate interdependencies in an organisation & acquire perspectives required for general management positions.
The GMP is for managers seeking to re-vitalise their careers. It is most appropriate for managers holding positions of responsibility within functional departments of medium to large businesses. The participants should have at least 5 years of managerial experience after graduation. As the programme makes exceptional intellectual & emotional demands, participants should have an inquiring mind and capacity to think clearly. They must also have a high degree of adaptability and maturity to work and interact closely with other participants under considerable pressure.
A mix of pedagogical tools will be used – cases, lectures, discussions, presentations, audio-visuals, and experiential exercises. A typical day would include about eight hours of classroom sessions. Preparation for the class requires doing intensive reading of course material. For effective learning participants should budget approximately 15 hours of reading time in-between sessions. Informal group discussions amongst participants are recommended.
