About IIM Calcutta
The Indian Institute of Management Calcutta was established as the first national institute for
Post Graduate Studies and Research in Management by the Government of India in November 1961, in
collaboration with Alfred P. Sloan School of Management (MIT), the Government of West Bengal, The
Ford Foundation, and the Indian Industry. Over the years, IIM Calcutta has grown into a mature
institution with a global reputation, imparting high-quality management education. It has been
playing a pioneering role in professionalizing Indian management through its Post Graduate and
Doctoral level Programmes, Executive Training Programmes, Research and Consulting Activities. For
more information, please visit

We live in a world of complex technologies where specialisation in a particular domain
paves the way for opportunities. Most high-paying jobs need specialists rather than being a
generalist.
However, as one moves up the corporate ladder, there is a paradigm shift in favour of
generalists. There is a need for professionals with the knowledge of broader aspects to
better visualise interconnected domains and find solutions for the organisation as a whole.
This calls for robust cross-functional and holistic competencies to keep up with the
fast-changing business environment.
The Executive Programme in General Management is for professionals aspiring to drive
business growth and excellence by building their management capabilities.
Dr. Somdeep Chatterjee is a faculty member in the Economics group at IIM Calcutta. He completed his PhD in
Economics from the University of Houston (TX, USA). In January 2023

Society in recognition of his research contributions. Prior to joining IIM Calcutta, he worked as a faculty
member at IIM Lucknow. He has also briefly held faculty positions at FLAME University and the University of
Manchester. Dr Chatterjee has experience of conducting several management development programs in the fields
of general management, change management, health care, etc as instructor and program director. He has also
undertaken consultancy projects in the fields of impact assessment. Dr. Chatterjee has been a Non-Resident
Fellow at the Centre for Development Economics and Sustainability at Monash University and a Fellow of the
Global Labor Organization. His research is in the domain of applied microeconomics and he has widely published
his work in leading international journals and has presented his work at various top economics seminars across
the globe.
Dr. Vishal Bansal
Assistant Professor, Operations Management, IIM Calcutta
