IIM-L announces GMP for Defence Officers at IIM-LasNOIDA campus

The response to first three of the programmes conducted by IIML was a success with all 49 officers of the first programme and 60 of the second getting good job offer. The third batch, which is undergoing placements right now, is also witnessing many offers. This year a total of 59 Defense Officers including 7 l Lady Officers, have been selected from the three branches of the Armed forces.

As in the past, the fourth programme is also expected to generate an enthusiastic response from the corporate world and given the nature of the programme it is sure to equip the participants with the necessary skill set so very essential to in the corporate world.

The objective of the GMP is to provide the participants with a basic understanding of the managerial systems and processes. The programme has been designed to provide the defence officers with basic functional inputs in subjects such as accounting and finance, decision sciences, organizational behavior, human resources management, communication skills, marketing, strategy, information technology and business environment. The idea is to familiarize the officers with the requisite analytical tools and techniques; and develop a holistic perspective and global mindset to understand issues of an enterprise.

“Management education to defence personnel contributes to providing defence officers a second career choice after retirement. But the larger role in the national interest is to prepare a disciplined and responsible citizen to play important roles in today’s competitive business scenario” say Prof. NK Gupta & Prof. SC Bansal, Program Directors.
