30% Salary Hike

Aparna S.

FMCG Senior Marketing Manager

I didn’t join to gather buzzwords; I joined to improve executive communication. I had to frame decisions with trade-offs rather than just slides because of the 48-hour live sessions and IIM-style cases. I came away from the uncomfortably realistic crisis simulation with a two-page communications playbook and a clear escalation map. Our quarterly reviews are more rigorous, and cross-functional discussions remain focused on the problem rather than the individual. It’s not magic.

Raghav M.

IT Services Delivery Lead

The transition of the delivery lead into senior stakeholder positions (IT services)
I finally had structure thanks to the negotiation module, which covered BATNA planning, framing, and who to brief when. By aligning the stakeholder map and pre-reads, we were able to reduce the approval cycle from 12 days to 8 days in one renewal. I was able to practice having tough conversations in the labs before I actually had them. The 110-hour schedule worked well with my job, and the two practical projects forced me to be honest about results rather than showmanship.
