K J Somaiya Institute of Management is now accepting applications for its sixth working executive MBA batch.
The program has already drawn working professionals with 3 to more than 15 years of experience from different industries such as banking, healthcare, manufacturing, sales, marketing, IT and more. Participants hail from across the country bringing diverse experience and insights.
This executive MBA is centred on practical business challenges. It enhances learners' strategic thinking, problem-solving and leadership skills like conflict management, people management and effective communication. It is designed to assist professionals in leading change, making better decisions with data and achieving success in tech-savvy and complex business environments.
The release of the new lot is at a time when the Indian job market requires more competent and flexible leaders. Based on the India Skills Report 2024, there has been an improvement in employability but still a lot of professionals lack essential skills in decision-making, management and communication. A McKinsey Global Reskilling Survey 2023 further observed that more than 65% of Indian employers see a skill deficit in mid-level management. The KJSIM Executive MBA seeks to fill this void by providing current knowledge in finance, data science, AI, marketing, strategy and operations.
Dr. Raman Ramachandran, Director and Dean at KJSIM underlined that this MBA is not merely a degree. It's a journey of growth that equips professionals to be strategic leaders poised to tackle the dynamics of a rapidly evolving corporate landscape.
The program provides a convenient mode of learning with live online courses, project work and case studies. Students also receive access to Harvard case studies, Bloomberg Lab simulations and an in-campus module of short duration for a comprehensive experience. Students are also awarded alumni status upon graduation by KJSIM which provides access to a broad professional network and opportunities for long-term career development.
