Harvard Business School (HBS) will be hosting an executive education programme, Building a Global Enterprise in India, from April 29 to May 2 at the HBS classroom, Taj Lands End, Mumbai. The programme is designed for senior leaders seeking strategies to expand within and beyond the compelling Indian market. Offered jointly by HBS and the India Research Center in Mumbai, it combines research-based knowledge of India with the global perspective of the B-school. The programme fee is Rs 2,15,000 plus service tax and covers tuition, books, case materials, accommodations and most meals.

“This course presents an opportunity for participants to explore both Indian and non-Indian case studies on organisations that have pursued scale within and beyond their home markets,” said Tarun Khanna, Jorge Paulo Lemann Professor and faculty chair of the programme. “Participants will study best management practices worldwide and strategies for tailoring those practices to the unique characteristics of the Indian market. The curriculum addresses the critical demands facing leaders of organisations seeking to capitalise on the business climate in the region.”

The course will explore management challenges from multiple viewpoints to develop frameworks to address a company’s specific challenges. “This leadership development program addresses the key trends and demands facing leaders of companies looking to build scale in India today.” said Scott Snook, senior lecturer of Business Administration and Building a Global Enterprise in India faculty member. “Our engagement in this region, initiated with case studies, focused on companies operating in India. This has gradually expanded to include development initiatives for faculty in India, specialised education programmes, and analysis of local business challenges.”

Through faculty lectures, panel discussions, and assessment tools, the emphasis will be on group participation. As with all HBS executive education programmes, the India portfolio will be taught by members of the school’s own full-time faculty using the HBS case method.
