Leverage Business & Corporate Laws to Gain Strategic & Competitive Advantages
About IIM Calcutta
Established in 1961, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta is one of Asia Pacific region's premier business schools and amongst the top 3 business schools in India. IIM Calcutta is the first triple accredited management school from India and one amongst 86 such business schools globally to have accreditation from Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) and Association of MBAs (AMBA).
Programme Overview
Law is regarded as ‘the last great untapped source of competitive
advantage’. But traditionally, the legal and regulatory environment is viewed as an ‘impediment
to growth’ or constraint in doing business. With strong and updated legal expertise,
organisations can strategize effectively, create competitive advantages and reduce any financial
threats.
Keeping this in mind, IIM Calcutta has designed the Executive Programme in Business and
Corporate Laws for working professionals who have an active interest in understanding the legal
aspects of business, especially in today’s dynamic times. The programme shall address the
different facets of business and its operation including strategic understanding of the legal
environment to improve a firm’s competitive advantage, leveraging regulatory framework in
designing
strategies to differentiate in a dynamic and disruptive environment, minimize organizational and
financial risks and other aspects. Having a reasonable understanding of the regulatory framework
will help the manager/executive in
designing the strategies and counter strategies for competitive advantage.
