Programme Overview

The EPGM program is designed for young professionals across various industries and functions. It provides participants with the foundational skills, core concepts, and tools and techniques essential to successfully manage in today’s complex and dynamic global environments. Individual courses provide participants the skills needed to work cross-functionally within the organization. The knowledge gained from the programme will be a solid foundation in managing one’s role with a holistic perspective. Participants are also exposed to the digital and emerging technological trends needed for managing their careers and business in a rapidly changing business environment. There will also be special and exclusive “Leadership Talk Series” which will feature 2-4 industry speakers giving special invited lectures on contemporary management topics.
