As the world is finally emerging from the throes of 2019 pandemic and it’s after effects, things are starting to get back on track. In this process, the depths of reinvention that we as a society went through in the way we live, work, research, study, or do business is a moment of reckoning. These turbulent times have taught us that we have to constantly adapt and evolve ourselves in order to stay relevant in this frenetically disruptive world.
IIM Lucknow, since its inception, has always kept this theme of continual improvement in its ambit and aimed for giving to the world forward-thinking and agile leaders. In line with this thought, the International Programme in Management for Executives (IPMX) was conceived.

The pandemic has revealed that the global business environment which was already fast-paced has now become unfamiliar as well. This unprecedented time has increasingly changed the role of leadership in organizations and put it under a spotlight, drawing importance towards transformational leadership and integrated decision making. On this front, our flagship one-year full time MBA program at IIM Lucknow – IPMX, has consistently delivered thought leaders since its inception in 2008.
The global pandemic led to a paradigm shift in the way we deliver education. Online learning became the panacea for learning and supporting our students’ wellbeing. Despite such challenging times, I am extremely proud of the unflinching and unwavering resolute of our students, faculty and management, which enabled us to seamlessly switch over to the hybrid mode of imparting knowledge for our previous batch. This was achieved, without compromising on the quality of delivery, as well as learning.
The world now seems to have emerged out of this crisis and we have also bounced back to full time classroom learning. It gives me immense pleasure to introduce to you the 15th batch of IPMX who have passed a rigorous admission process that puts emphasis on selecting the individuals who can inspire those around them, during as well as beyond the program.
After 14 years of fruitful industry partnership, we look forward to another exciting year. I am extremely confident that our students of the class of 2022-2023, like in our earlier batches, would go on to add significant value to the society and organizations.
I am happy to welcome you to the IPMX placement process for the year 2022-23.

The process of learning at IPMX for me was transformative, intensely challenging and simply fun. It not only built a comprehensive layer of business knowledge but also provided inter-cohort learning at an unprecedented level. The deeply knowledgeable professors had such a robust grasp on the subjects that it made me appreciate all domains in a business in a much more intimate manner. This tight knit program is very adept in helping you grow and peer-learn from a cohort of expert professionals. Undergoing such a transformative program has helped me build multiple skills that have come handy time and again in making valuable business decisions and solving complex challenges.
