Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi Launches Advanced Program to Shape the Next Generation of AI Leaders

As businesses grapple with the rapid shift toward digital transformation, the need for technology leaders who can skillfully navigate the complexities of AI has surged. Korn Ferry’s research highlights that over 82% of top executives anticipate artificial intelligence will have a major impact on their operations, reflecting the increasing demand for expertise in this area.

In response, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, ranked fourth among India’s management institutes (NIRF 2024), has unveiled the Advanced Program in Technology & AI Leadership (TAILP). This initiative aims to equip rising leaders with the critical skills required to thrive in an AI-centric world.

The program caters to technology professionals, senior managers, IT strategists, consultants, and entrepreneurs. Participants will gain the knowledge to spearhead growth by leveraging strategic leadership, operational precision, and a strong foundation in AI. Topics will include crafting innovative tech strategies, overseeing IT systems with a focus on cybersecurity, and leading AI-driven initiatives.

Enrollees will benefit from IIT Delhi’s cutting-edge AI research, which will help them foster innovation, build resilience, and maintain a competitive edge in today’s fast-paced digital landscape.

TAILP offers an in-depth curriculum covering key areas like AI and Machine Learning in business, Digital Transformation, Cybersecurity, and emerging trends such as blockchain and the metaverse. In addition, participants will complete a capstone project, allowing them to apply their learning to practical challenges in tech strategy and leadership.

A key highlight is a two-day campus immersion at IIT Delhi, where participants will engage with faculty, collaborate with peers, and enhance their leadership abilities in AI-led business environments.

Recent insights from EY’s CEO Survey emphasize the growing importance of AI, with 70% of Indian CEOs planning to increase investment in AI technologies. This underscores the critical need for leadership programs like TAILP, designed to prepare decision-makers to lead in this evolving landscape.

The program will be led by IIT Delhi’s esteemed faculty, including Professor Arpan Kumar Kar, an expert in information systems and emerging technologies. With a distinguished career that includes research projects for major global firms like Facebook, PwC, and BASF, Prof. Kar will bring valuable insights into managing AI’s impact on business operations. His extensive body of research, including over 200 publications and 18,000 citations, underscores his authority in the field.
