Indian Institute of Management Mumbai has announced the launch of Batch 2 of its Executive Programme in Corporate and Strategic Finance, following the successful completion of its inaugural cohort.
The move comes at a time when India’s finance function is undergoing rapid transformation. Today’s finance professionals are expected to go beyond reporting and compliance to actively support capital allocation, risk management, mergers and acquisitions, governance, and long-term value creation. This shift has intensified the need for leaders who can seamlessly integrate financial insight with strategic business decision-making.
The first batch of the Executive Programme drew senior professionals with an average experience of over 12 years, representing leadership roles across finance, consulting, auditing, operations, entrepreneurship, and corporate management.
Participants came from diverse functional domains, including finance, accounting, auditing, market risk, due diligence, corporate compliance, sales and marketing, account management, and technology-driven roles. The cohort also represented a broad industry mix—financial services, information technology, consulting and professional services, real estate and construction, manufacturing and engineering, and education—fostering cross-industry peer learning and strategic exchange.
Encouraged by this strong response, IIM Mumbai has expanded the initiative with a second batch, aiming to further strengthen the pipeline of strategic finance leaders in India.
The programme offers a rigorous and industry-aligned learning journey that includes:
Participants benefit from experiential learning methods such as case discussions, hands-on exercises, and interactive sessions that bridge theory with practice.
