An ideal mix that would prepare the young generation to become leaders of tomorrow would be
1) expertise in the building blocks of developing and sustaining businesses such as strategy, finance, and operations,
2) an in-depth understanding of how these apply in the digital world, and
3) strong communication and leadership skills that enable leaders to navigate the ups and downs of the new business terrain. This last piece - leadership - is missing even in the few management programs that are beginning to offer a broader syllabus.
To address this challenge, the school of leadership at the Northcap University has launched a "Management and Leadership" programme. It is a one-year post-graduate full-time residential course based out of the university's campus in Gurugram. The programme has been founded by Dr. Pramath Raj Sinha, founding dean of the Indian School of Business and co-creator of Ashoka University, along with corporate leaders who believe in the cause of making quality and relevant education accessible to more people.
The programme is mentored by an advisory panel of leading entrepreneurs and recruiters, and the faculty is a mix of distinguished academics from different universities, besides experienced professionals from the industry.
A curriculum based on inputs from recruiters, two business certifications from Wharton Business School, course content from Harvard Publishing, experiential learning, one on one mentorship, opportunities to participate in events organized by organizations like FICCI and CII, and a 50 percent scholarship are some of the highlights of the programme.
