Messagefrom theDear Aspirant,Program Hour CalculationDeanNo. of hours on Saturday and Sunday each8No. of hours / weekend16No. of hours / month (alternate weekends)32No. of contact hours / Quarter96Autumn and Spring Quarters100 hours(The extra 4 hours will be added dynamically during the program)Summer & Winter Quarters80 hours(Only a single weekend of classes in December and June)Welcome to Great Lakes Institute of Management!When we commenced operations in 2004, our main goalwas to provide the talented professional an unbeatable valueproposition – that of time, money and outstanding qualityManagement Education. The other intrinsic valueproposition was, of course, that Great Lakes would groomthese professionals into not only superb managers but alsoresponsible leaders of tomorrow.Fee Structure & PaymentSix years down the line, it is heartening to see that ourmodel is a resounding success (we are ranked among the top20 B-schools in the country) and has won the support andfaith of the student, academic and corporate communityalike. This, in turn, motivates us to create newer offerings towelcome more promising professionals into the Great Lakesfamily. Great Lakes currently offers the one-year fast-trackresidential PGP in Management as well as the 2 yearpart-time Executive PGP in Management program thatlevitates middle level functional managers to high profilegeneral managers.This still leaves a population whose aspirations are notaddressed – a segment that yearns to move up from entrylevel management to middle management; but the catch isthat this aspirant cannot afford to be away from work andforego his current earnings. Neither can he participate in theExecutive PGPM as his corporate exposure falls short of themandatory five year prior work ex requirement. Sounds likeyou? Welcome to the Great Lakes Post Graduate WeekendProgram in Management – the PGWPM.The PGWPM aspirants are ambitious yet flexible,fun-loving yet practical, career focused and goal orientedyet hunting for the wherewithal to realize a dream. Theircareer aspiration is one of global mobility and they copewith change with a winning ‘can do’ attitude. Great Lakeshas structured the PGWPM course to reflect these innatecharacteristics and individual priorities of the aspirant whileproviding for a synergistic learning experience for the entiregroup as a whole.From a corporate point of view, with the economy lookingup, motivating and retaining talent becomes a key issue forIndia Inc. In this context, the PGWPM program could beviewed by the corporate sponsor as either a “reward” forpast performance or a “motivator” in ensuring continuity oras an “investment” towards future leadership. By nurturingand rewarding talent, corporates could ensure a definitive‘win-win’ situation while co-creating value for both,the individual and Institution.Great Lakes has always held high, the values ofCustomer-centricity, Meritocracy and Corporate Ethics.Great Lakes defines ‘customer’ to include all beneficiaries –2Plansstudents, Industry as well as top-notch faculty and staff whoprovide unsurpassed educational experience. With theBusiness Advisory Council headed by Shri Ratan Tata, theBoard of Directors by Shri Jamshyd Godrej and theAcademic Advisory Council by myself, commitment tohighest quality, rigor and ethical standards is natural. Thisapart, luminaries like Philip Kotler, Ratan Tata, NarayanaMurthy, Montek Singh Ahluwalia and C.K. Prahalad andmany others frequently visit Great Lakes and share valuableinsights with the students. Joining hands with Great Lakesthus culminates a life-time relationship of learning, sharingand prosperity.I am delighted to welcome you to our ‘Post GraduateWeekend Program in Management’ - an innovative “Masterof Readiness” program blending the best of Westernprogressive management thought and Eastern ethos, butmore than that, I extend a warm welcome to you, to join theGreat Lakes family.PLAN IProf. Bala V.
