August 9, 2021: WileyNXT, Wiley's revolutionary bridge learning solution, is successfully operating its flagship programme of Data-Driven Product Management in cooperation with IIM Lucknow - Indian Institute of Management, one of India's top business and management institutions. It is the first Executive Education program that combines Data Analytics and Design Thinking with Product, Marketing, Development, and Scale-Up Strategy across the product lifecycle. The program, which has been split into four batches, has already generated over 1000 job-ready product managers. WileyNXT's entire objective of creating an 'Atmanirbhar' talent and workforce of the future is linked with this key milestone.
In terms of the availability of skilled Product Managers, India trails well behind the United States. According to an article, 1.8 million individuals work in Product Management roles in the United States, and demand for Product Manager jobs is expanding at a staggering 32 per cent rate. In comparison, India has only 20,000 Product Managers. The numerous vacancies vacant for merely entry-level Product Managers are also reflected in LinkedIn searches. The rising skill gap in the workforce is due to this.
The flagship program by Wiley's WileyNXT and IIM Lucknow offers a joint certification from the two prestigious brands as well as Executive Alumni Status to the learners. It is curated for a diverse target audience, either already involved in developing and managing products or aspiring to transition to similar roles. The intensive seven-month experiential learning programme is designed to give learners with job readiness from day one.
According to credible industry research, more than 9 out of 10 Indian organisations are combining functions and attempting to fill unfilled positions internally. Product Management, Consulting, and Program & Project Management were the top three functions in India with the highest internal mobility rate in 2020. Product managers in India earn an average compensation of Rs 16.8 lakh per year, which is predicted to rise to Rs 30 lakhs per year with experience and other abilities.
Commenting on the program’s utility, Sangeet Aggarwal, Operations Manager, GG Industries, and one of the certified learners in IIM Lucknow - Wiley Executive Program in Data-Driven Product Management said, “The programme aims to help product managers harness the multiple skill competencies that are needed for developing and managing successful products in a post-covid world, along with skills for mining data for effective decision making and design thinking for complex problem solving, leading to better innovations and product success. The course also sets the foundations for machine learning and how it can be applied for product success.”
