It is imperative that the world acknowledge the benefits of having more women in leadership roles and make a commitment to achieving this goal, but it is equally crucial that women must speak out, act, and do so to hold their proper positions at all levels of society. For all the female workers out there, who want to succeed as managers, owners of family businesses, and even entrepreneurs, IIM Calcutta offers the Transitioning into Leadership: A Programme for Women Executives (TLPWE).
This one-year online programme teaches participants about the transition of women in organisations from managerial to leadership roles, as well as theoretical and applied managerial skills in a variety of executive dimensions such as leadership vision, self-exploration, understanding, skills, applications, and articulation.
