Programmes
A 15 days intensive programme spread over 4 months. Programme to be delivered in Dubai and at IIM Ahmedabad.
Small and medium enterprise (SME) owners are entrepreneurs who play a vital role in employment generation and economic growth. These promoters often need to take a step back and reflect on their business. This involves thinking about their firm’s growth, challenges they confront and their long term goals.
The CEO Program affords an opportunity to be immersed in a learning environment with other entrepreneurs and faculty from the renowned Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA). They can update their knowledge, skills and acquaint themselves with the most current business practices. The program will utilize frameworks, tools, and perspectives that will enable participants to identify and prioritize opportunities, refine and strengthen their business models and capitalize on emerging market trends.
CEO time is precious. Return on time invested (ROTI) is critical in managing their personal and professional objectives. This program is structured to minimize time away from work.
