Strategic leadership communication is not just about disseminating information but rather about using communication as a tool to influence, engage and achieve desired outcomes, and maybe even achieve the impossible!

IIM Calcutta's Executive Programme in Communication Strategies for Corporate Leaders (EPCSCL) is unlike any other Communications programme. Going way beyond the commonly held perceptions of Communication, the programme presents new paradigms of leadership communication, bringing in concepts from a diverse set of disciplines and unveiling powerful tools and practices, including manoeuvres that can act as game changers in complex business scenarios.

Designed by distinguished Communication professors of IIM Calcutta who have infused the programme with their research and experience, EPCSCL takes participants on an enjoyable and enriching journey into the multidimensional world of Communication, revealing insightful perspectives through a variety of disciplines (including Gamification, Data Storytelling, New Media Technologies, Agility, Contemporaneity, etc.).
