INTRODUCTION
Artificial Intelligence has been steadily
extending its influence over businesses
around the world, which has created a
steady demand for AI professionals. While
the focus has been on the opportunities
available for qualified professionals, their
efforts still need to be directed towards
specific business outcomes. The glut of
emerging AI professionals needs to be
effectively leveraged to maximise their
productivity and achieve business success.
This has set the stage for a secondary
demand for qualified AI business leaders.
We are past the point of touting that AI is
going to be the next big thing. Businesses
are already leveraging AI to take superior
products to market, provide services with
key differentiators and deliver exceptional
customer service. The success of the AI
efforts of any company hinges on the
leadership behind it. Modern business
leaders need a proper understanding
of the capabilities and limitations of AI
to transform their businesses. The Post
Graduate Program in Artificial Intelligence
for Leaders is a 5 month intensive online
program for leaders who want to use the
knowledge of data and AI to make informed
strategic business decisions. The program is
suitable for non-tech business professionals
who are looking to leverage the power of
AI in their day-to-day decision making.
Relevant profiles include product managers,
directors, category managers, CXOs,
delivery managers, product managers,
senior managers and team leads who want
to upskill themselves. The program focuses
on conceptual and real-world case-based
approach which helps to simulate working
scenarios where AI can be adopted to
improve business outcomes.

The course is well designed for leaders who want to understand
what happens in the AI and ML world without getting to the
details of coding, as they will anyway lead a team of data
scientists who are knowledgeable about that. The course
skyrocketed my confidence to lead teams of data scientists
and AI in my organisation.

SANJAY NIRWAN

It’s a well-paced and extremely well-tuned program for senior

leaders in the industry. It incorporates a good balance of hands-
on practice and of the big picture, which would be of great help in
current and future responsibilities. The lectures are well captured
