Message from the Director
Prof. Prafulla Agnihotri
Director of the Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur
“In the age of Artificial Intelligence, leadership is no longer about managing people, but about navigating change. The leaders of tomorrow will not just adapt to AI; they are required to lead with AI as their most important tool or resource. We have always been driven by building the most relevant leadership capabilities. New industry dynamics require a revived approach to building leaders - this is what the MBA with AI is designed to do. The program will enable emerging leaders not just to recalibrate their business lens based on the rapid transformations today, but also embed AI into personal practices, team workflows, and cross-functional processes - irrespective of whether they come from a tech background or not.”
