According to World Economic Forum, nearly 50% of companies [i] worldwide had estimated that by 2020, advancements in technology and automation will require more than half of all employees to reskill and upskill. The COVID-19 crisis has exacerbated this need, as the lockdown hastened digitalisation across the world. At the same time, various business challenges encountered due to the disruption caused, have highlighted the need for business leaders who possess strategic and analytical thinking, as well as the capability for deriving data-driven insights that power the growth strategy of companies. This helps them foresee emerging trends and adapt quickly in response, to continue achieving key organisational goals.
The management programmes offered by IIM Nagpur and TimesTSW address these gaps and prepare executives for the dynamic business environment of the future.
