IIM Lucknow and Emeritus Launch ‘Senior Leadership Programme’ to Shape Next-Gen Business Leaders

Bengaluru, August 11, 2025: As businesses navigate disruption and digital transformation, leadership roles are evolving rapidly. According to Gartner’s Top 5 Priorities for HR Leaders in 2025 report, only 36% of HR leaders believe their leadership development initiatives adequately prepare leaders for future challenges, while just 23% are confident in their leadership pipeline. Addressing this critical gap, the Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (IIM Lucknow), a leading business school, ranked 4th amongst all B-schools in India (ranked by FT-100) and globally accredited by AMBA and AACSB, has announced the launch of Senior Leadership Programme in collaboration with Emeritus.

Designed for CXOs, senior executives, business unit heads, general managers, functional leaders, and high-potential mid-career professionals, the 10-month live online programme provides a strategic, cross-functional perspective to drive organisational growth and transformation. It is ideal for professionals aspiring to board-level roles or those looking to strengthen their leadership impact in today’s complex business environment.

Avnish Singhal, Executive Vice President, Head India & APAC, Emeritus, said, “Business environments today demand leaders who can seamlessly navigate complexity, drive transformation, and inspire high-performing teams. The Senior Leadership Programme is a unique opportunity for professionals to acquire these capabilities while earning an IIM Lucknow credential.”
