NHRD partnership will help IMI align and fine tune its curriculum and inputs, continuously, as per emerging needs of industry. Why this Programme? • It is increasingly being realized that people are key differentiators in enabling organization gain and maintain competitive edge in borderless economic order. • It is thus imperative for organizations to attract, nurture, develop and retain such talents as will be responsive to the demands of ever changing technology, increased mobility and fast growing obsolescence. • Human and social capital development will become major preoccupation as organizations prepare to position themselves in a highly uncertain and volatile global environment. • Appropriate structures, systems and culture needs to be designed to facilitate not only open sharing of ideas but also continuous innovation by capturing the creative potentials of organization members. • HR professionals with holistic perspective and in depth understanding of the fundamentals of related disciplines providing the foundation of people management with strong service orientation will be needed to address proactively to the challenges of future. In addition, insights into the various HR subsystems of stakeholders will be necessary conditions for enabling them to contribute to the attainment of organizational goals and purposes. The IMI programme • Prepares a cadre of HR professionals equipped with appropriate values, perspective, and competencies to become a catalyst in developing a culture of excellence in the organization. • Reflects on contemporary academic theory and practice and focuses on the functional competencies having a bearing upon the HR function. Although a functional knowledge of managerial economics, accounting, finance and quantitative analysis, and HRM underlies the programme, equal attention is given to the development of report writing, effective presentation, interpersonal and group processing and other basic managerial skills. Special attention will be paid in the curriculum on leading and managing change. • Emphasizes the identification, analysis and solution of complex human resources management problem that require technical understanding and appropriate decision making and problem solving abilities. • Enables students develop additional expertise in the solution of persistent human resources management problems through the completion of a research project, which relates the student’s professional interests to the goal of improved human resources managerial functioning. The research project, therefore, serves not only to provide a vehicle for the application of theory to practice, but also serves to demonstrate that the student can perform in a variety of sophisticated management roles with the confidence and self-discipline expected of them. • Involves a variety of learning formats, depending upon the subject matter and competencies to be developed. These formats include lecture, seminar, team teaching, self directed learning, block field work, live projects, and internship with corporates and civil society institutions engaged in community development and other social issues.

This will be done through course work, internship, live projects, term papers and dissertation. • For better comprehension of social and developmental issues which have a bearing on people and their lives the participants will be attached to non-governmental and other voluntary organizations for a specified period. • Though a balanced menu, the programme prepares the students well rounded in all sub areas of HR.

Winning organizations are set apart by being ahead of change through providing direction, building commitment and effectively through implementing change programs. Instead of worrying and wondering why and how changes are taking place, organizations should make change happen as ordained by it. Organizations run the risk of becoming extinct if the rate at which they change is not in keeping with the pace of changes in their environments. In view of the above it is essential for organizations to develop a cadre of internal change agents who will need to take up the additional role of creators and masters of change to enable their respective organizations and maintain competitive advantage. This would further necessitate developing among managers such competencies as are desirable for setting directions, leading change and aligning the organizations systems with change objectives. THE OBJECTIVES This program is aimed at preparing change masters who can be catalysts for transforming organization through planned changed strategies. It will be found useful to those with five years or more executive work experience. THE PARTICIPANT PROFILE AND SELECTION PROCESS Minimum academic qualification for admission is graduation in any discipline and fluency in English language. Selection is based on a change readiness/orientation test, group discussion and personal interview. Company sponsorship is desirable. Selected candidates are encouraged to do the project work in the organization where they are working and on a project where they will have a reasonable opportunity to implement and follow up.
