“In today’s world, it is essential that managers adjust and adapt quickly to diverse situations, and are flexible enough to work with teams spread across the globe. A reasonable familiarity with foreign cultures and etiquette gains considerable importance in such an environment. We aim to make each one of our graduating students adept at dealing with an increasingly globalised world. This programme helps students learn how to work in teams composed of people from different nationalities, and also pick up the nuances of different cultures” said Professor Biju Paul Abraham, Dean (Academic), IIM Calcutta.
