In addition, the training resource center will be a hub for trainers and academics that can develop new programs customized to local needs.

Message
Dear Recruiters,
It gives me immense pleasure to introduce the eleventh batch of IIMA’s Armed Forces Programme (AFP).
Participants are undergoing a six month fully residential course in Business Management at IIM Ahmedabad.
The programme is designed to facilitate transition of these experienced and talented leaders from uniformed
service into senior and mid-level positions in business. The current batch of 56 Officers is a mix of serving and
retired Officers of significant experience in diverse fields. These Officers have outstanding career records in fields
ranging from general administration to technical roles and operational responsibilities. They bring onboard
proven leadership experience, consistent track records, enviable dedication and loyalty to their organisation.
They possess competence in the domains of operations, administration and human resource management
which have been acquired, tested, and proven under demanding conditions and challenging circumstances.
The current course, AFP15, is the first batch which has been inducted after clearing a
competitive selection examination conducted by IIMA.
The core areas of management covered in the course include Corporate Finance, Business Analytics, Economics,
Strategy, Operations and Project Management, Marketing, Organisational Behaviour, Human Resources, and
Communication. The programme has further honed their skills in corporate management and transformed
this treasure house of experience into a set of managers well equipped to add value to the organisations they
will join in the near future. I am certain that they will be invaluable assets to their respective organisations due
to their capabilities, commitment, and self-motivation.
I would urge you as recruiters to collaborate with us at IIM Ahmedabad to harness the skills of the talented
participants in the AFP programme and help in their smooth transition to the corporate world. I wish the
participants tremendous success in the years to come and look forward to seeing them as active contributors to
the organizations they join.

About
AFP & Course Curriculum
Another day of mine begins, in rays lent by the Sun,
A new challenge awaits - I arise to the mission.
The weather is quite harsh and the terrain utterly mean,
I plan for the predicted, provide for the unforeseen.
I have ventured uncharted waters, crossed unforgiving straits,
I relentlessly hone my skills and imbibe impeccable traits.
My strategy prevails over odds, uncertainty it survives,
I cannot afford to err, I am entrusted with lives!
THE SOLDIER PERPETUAL
In the face of dreaded risks and dauntless under fire,
I step to the forefront - I shall lead, I shall inspire.
With my heart and soul ablaze, spirit flaring bright,
I shall neither rest, nor seek respite.
With renewed vigour I emerge, against all the wind’s might,
I am poised to set sail, primed to take the flight!

What Faculty
Say About Us
“It has been a pleasure to interact with
the AFP15 participants both during the
course on Economic Policy where I was
the Instructor as well as in conversations
outside the class. I found them to be
enthusiastic and quick learners. They
quickly disproved a hypothesis I had at
the beginning of the course that those
with some years in the Armed Forces
will be accustomed to following orders
and will be weak on initiative. At the
end of each session an assignment was
declared and the participants had to
make a presentation on that in the next
session - the range of logical arguments
offered by them on the path of Exchange
Rates, Interest Rates, and Budgetary
& Monetary Policy showed a deep
interaction with foundational issues
within a short span of time. These hard-
working, sharp, flexible, and committed
participants will be a valuable resource
to the organization they work for.”
Prof. Errol D’Souza
Economics Area, I.I.M Ahmedabad
“Operations Planning and Execution
has always been a forte of Officers of
the Armed Forces. The adaptability of
these Officers in handling the complex
and challenging situations on and off
the field makes them ideally suited
for managing most of the business
situations at ease. Their conventional
strengths in managing teams, logical
ability, and conclusive deductions-
have been further honed with business
acumen by the courses at IIMA. I
am sure that these Officers would be
appreciable assets for the organizations
in the field of Operations, Logistics,
Supply Chain Management and Project
Management.”
Prof. Chetan Soman
Production & Quantitative Methods Area, I.I.M
Ahmedabad
“As a faculty for “Marketing” course for
this batch, I facilitated the participants
in learning basic principles of
marketing. In the marketing course,
the participants analysed more than 20
different marketing case studies that has
helped in developing their marketing
acumen, analytical capabilities and has
exposed them to marketing issues in
a variety of industry contexts. Based
on my observation, I can vouch that
a number of participants will excel at
marketing roles in the companies. Given
their background which inculcates hard
work and discipline, the participants
have gained adequate knowledge, skills
and techniques across different areas
of marketing and management in a
quick time. They have also been able
to develop their conceptual, analytical
and execution skills in this domain. I
am convinced that they have necessary
abilities to deliver winning results as
middle and senior level managers.
I find this AFP group to be interactive
and willing to engage and seek
knowledge. I wish them all the best in
their placement endeavours.”

“Participants of IIMA’s Armed Forces
Programme are disciplined, dedicated,
goal driven, and team leaders. When
laced with corporate management
principles & tools and the knowledge
of the market economy, they transform
themselves into rightful aspirants for
medium to top management positions
in the corporate world. While teaching
the course Economic Analysis and
Policy, it had become abundantly clear
to me that these men and women have
the abilities, drive, and the passion to be
successful corporate warriors. I wish
them the very best.”
Prof. Satish Y Deodhar
Economics Area, I.I.M Ahmedabad
“The participants of AFP15 course were
provided opportunities to take charge
and lead complex organizations as a part
ofthemoduleonStrategicManagement.
Theytookchargeofdiverseandcomplex
situations ranging from managing
entrepreneurial ventures to examining
the implications of innovations in
large, established multinational
companies. Their active involvement
in case comprehension, analysis and
decision making in these situations
has enabled them to comprehend the
nuances of alternative approaches
to formulation and implementation
of strategies in changing contexts.
They have become adept in sizing up
strategic situations, identifying decision
questions and developing complete,
concrete and consistent solutions. This
unique capability would enable them to
contribute meaningfully and strengthen
the performance of the organizations
they would be a part of. It would also
help them to promote entrepreneurial
ventures independently and manage
them successfully. I wish them all the
best in their careers.”
