Overview
Who are Product Managers? Well, McKinsey & Co describe Product Managers as mini-CEOs* and rightfully so, given today's dynamic business environment.

To develop product-centric thinking for business growth, the Professional Certificate Programme in Product Strategy from IIM Kozhikode provides a comprehensive blend of both data-driven insights and strategic product understanding, coupled with effective communication and management.
Joining this programme will enable mastering the art of product strategy and creating a disruptive business model based on an innovative product through interactive live online sessions. Become an industry-ready product manager and leader with proficiency in developing a business model with a customer-centric, value-driven product at the centre and efficiently navigate each stage of the product life cycle.

Indraprastha Cold Storage Ltd: Value Added Strategy in an Emerging Market by S. P. Raj & Atanu Adhikari
Indraprastha Cold Storage Ltd. (IPCSL) has made substantial investments in upgrading its cold storage to differentiate itself from the competition. By providing superior product quality, it can charge a premium for its value-added cold storage service. However, competitors lowered their rates to capture even more customers. IPCSL must decide on a course of action, taking into consideration the constraints of growing, transporting, storing and selling fruits in India.
Edible Agro Products Limited: Creating Higher Value for Farmers by Atanu Adhikari & Arna Das
2010 was the third consecutive year in which EAPL received less than 20% of the expected quantity of Til-2, a variety of white sesame they introduced to West Bengal in 2008. Should EAPL quit sesame production and focus only on the oil trading business? Should EAPL change its communications strategy to promote the value of white sesame to farmers? How should they address the growing concerns of the farmers?
Launch of the Pleasure Scooter by Atanu Adhikari & S P Raj
In March 2006, Hero Honda was about to launch its first scooter in the market tentatively keeping India’s women as primary user. Since 1984, the company had been involved in motorcycle manufacturing and had become the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. Consequently, Hero also developed manly appeal of its brand.
