IIM- Lucknow Courses for Armed Forces

The Indian Institute of Management-Lucknow (IIM-L) Tuesday started a six-month special management programme for defence officers of India.

Sixty-five officers from the Indian Army and the Indian Air Force have been enrolled for the programme.

"The purpose of the programme is to provide them (defence officers) with basic functional inputs - finance and accounting, human resource management, marketing, information technology and communication skills - and to familiarize them with requisite analytical tools and techniques and develop a hollistic perspective and a global mindset to understand issues of an enterprise."

According to Kumar, the DGR directorate, of the Indian Army was highly impressed by the success of the earlier programmes. The exercise is bound to be mutually beneficial to both the officers undergoing this course as well as to the corporate houses where they take up employment as ESM.
