IIM Kashipur conducted a Leadership Development Program
for Max Healthcare from September’23 to January ’24. This program was in line with IIM
Kashipur’s plan to diversify into sector-specific Management Development Programs. The
collaboration with Max Healthcare recognizes the need for industry and academia to curate
leadership development programs that can create a critical mass of change agents within
healthcare industry and thereby raise collective leadership.
This program included modules on Marketing, Operations, Accounts, Information Systems, and
Human Resource Management. The classes were conducted both in Max Healthcare and the
IIM Kashipur campus. 75 participants were in senior positions from various hospital units
from Max Healthcare. In the valedictory session organized at IIM Kashipur campus on 23-24
January’24, certificates were distributed to the eligible participants.
Speaking on this occasion Prof. Kunal Ganguly, Dean of Development said that this program is a
major step forward for IIM Kashipur to diversify its education offering and contribute to the
healthcare sector.
On behalf of Max Healthcare, Mr. Umesh Gupta, Senior Director & Chief People Officer said
that growing organizations like Max Healthcare need to raise the level of collective leadership
to succeed in an increasingly complex present and future. A critical aspect of growing as a
leader is to have a learning mindset. The Max Leadership Development program in partnership
with IIM Kashipur aims at personalizing, contextualizing and socializing learning, to empower
future leaders to unlock their true potential and contribute to their own as well as the
organization’s growth trajectory.
Recently, both IIM Kashipur and Max Healthcare have tied up to offer a Post Graduate
Executive Program in Hospital Management (PGEPHM). Both organizations decided to launch
programs related to Healthcare Management to address the increasing demand for trained
manpower for the sector. The first in the series will be the Post Graduate Executive Programme
in Hospital Management where the classes will be conducted by faculty from both IIM Kashipur
and Max Healthcare with practical training at the Max Hospitals. Both organizations also
decided to have joint research, seminars, and other academic collaborations.
