International Management Programme (IMP - Batch 5)

Participants develop a worldly perspective of management, discover a deeper understanding of themselves and develop new insights that lead to major changes for their organizations.

The objective of the IMP and its innovative pedagogy is to help experienced managers develop their capabilities by learning together with top-rated faculty, as well as through the experiences and expertise of their colleagues as they travel the world exploring key management mindsets.

The Impact of IMPM/IMP

MODULE 1 MANAGING SELF: THE REFLECTIVE MINDSET (Lancaster University, Lancaster, United Kingdom)

The Lake District of northern England, far from the hectic pace of managing, is the perfect setting for thoughtful reflection on yourself and your experiences as a manager.

Participants experience sessions on The Nature of Engaging Management (Professor Henry Mintzberg), Ethics and Virtue Within the Organization (Professor Lucas Introna), and a walk in the footsteps of Wordsworth before undertaking a cultural audit of a British company. This module is developed and delivered by leading faculty at the Lancaster University Management School, consistently ranked among the top research schools in the UK.

MODULE 2 MANAGING ORGANIZATIONS: THE ANALYTIC MINDSET (McGill University, Montreal, Canada)

We move to Montreal, one of North America’s most engaging cities, where Canada’s foremost university, McGill, hosts the second module, on the analytic mindset.

Sessions on big data, AI, finance, and the theory of constraints focus on developing an understanding of analysis beyond techniques—and away from both “extinction by instinct” and “paralysis by analysis.” Corey Phelps explores strategy and remaining competitive in today’s environment, and Henry Mintzberg contrasts adhocracies with bureaucracies and emergent strategies with deliberate ones.

MODULE 3 MANAGING CONTEXT: THE WORLDLY MINDSET (Indian Institute of Management Bangalore, India)

India is the best place to learn about other people’s worlds to better understand our own.  This module, hosted by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (ranked the best business school in Central Asia), delves into all aspects of the world of enterprises: from financial markets and consumer behavior to championing and sustaining business growth, and from stakeholder relationships to cultural differences.

The experience comes alive through visits to different places that illustrate India’s diversity—from a food market to a software campus, separated by just a few kilometers and several centuries.

MODULE 4 MANAGING RELATIONSHIPS: THE COLLABORATIVE MINDSET (Yokohama National University, Yokohama, Japan)

Not surprisingly, Japan is where we probe managing relationships through the collaborative mindset—covering individuals in groups, divisions, companies and in strategic alliances.

In this module, in addition to focusing on different forms of collaboration and alternative models of human behavior, we explore the role of trust and culture in collaboration and how it is created in companies. Taking advantage of proximity to China and Korea, input from these countries expands the East Asian experience of participants.

MODULE 5 MANAGING CHANGE: THE ACTION MINDSET (FGV-EBAPE, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

The Action Mindset expands assumptions about, frameworks for, and perspectives on  personal, professional, organizational and societal change and continuity. In Rio de Janeiro, at Brazil’s renowned FGV EBAPE, the focus is on catalytic change and how business and global dynamics interact with management and organizational action.

To develop an advanced and incisive perspective on managerial action, there are sessions on change management, processual perspectives on change and continuity, managing hierarchies for action, and on governance and knowledge for action across businesses and societal contexts. Visits to companies and public-sector enterprises as well as a school for youth development, and workshops on diversity and gender, refresh and extend the scope of managerial and organizational action.

Upgrade from IMP to IMPM

IMP is a certificate programme from IIMB, while IMPM is a step-up to “Lancaster University or McGill University or FGV-EBAPE Master’s programme” for which participants need to complete a “Final Paper”.

However the two programmes are identical in terms of participants’ profile (registered at one of the five universities in the five countries), programme content and duration (a period of two weeks immersed in the culture and knowledge of the host country).

IMP participants can upgrade to IMPM degree at anytime during the programme by paying the fee differential PLUS the degree fee directly to McGill University or Lancaster University or FGV-EBAPE. Please note that the participants who wish to obtain the Masters Degree must pay the full IMPM fee of US $50,000 (for individuals in the private sector) and US $45,000 (for individuals in government, NGOs, or academia) and then the degree fee of $11,000 CND at McGill or £6400 at Lancaster and $5000 US for the degree at FGV-EBAPE.

The IMPM graduates will be eligible to pursue the IDPM-PhD from LUMS. For more information on the IDPM-PhD please visit - https://bit.ly/3EtLv1x
