A Section of the new candidates
This programme enables the Learning Partners to become competitive, competent and strategic, in order to respond to the challenges in the VUCA world. Additionally, this programme will ensure the desired transformation of the candidates and their career trajectory to become corporate leaders, and takes them to the Corporate Board Room and beyond. The Globus Simulation course which is a compulsory elective, provides the candidates to compete with the other teams around the world as if they are managing a company online. A further specialty of this programme is its overseas study tour with corporate excursions, which adds immense value to the candidates not only from the domestic market but also from the global perspective. It will, for sure, provide the candidates with the distinctive competences to witness and experience as to how companies function on a global scale.
Mr Tharindu Ameresekere, Senior Lecturer, PIM, compered the inauguration and proposed the vote of thanks.
