The Leadership Talk Series (LTS) organized at IIM Lucknow, Noida Campus, serves as a platform for fostering a strong connection between the industry and our institute. We invite industry experts to share their expertise on a topic of their choice, and is contemporary, and industry-relevant. The primary objective of this series is to bridge the gap between theoretical classroom learning and the practical realities of the business world.
During these sessions, guest speakers have the freedom to cover a wide range of subjects, including technical knowledge and soft skills, based on their preference. By hosting these talks, we not only establish a fruitful and collaborative relationship between academia and industry, but also provide students with invaluable opportunities to gain insights into market trends and the operational challenges faced by industry pioneers.
The LTS at IIM Lucknow-Noida Campus not only facilitates knowledge exchange but also allows students to learn directly from industry leaders, enabling them to understand the industry dynamics and acquire essential skills for their future careers.

The Course of Independent Study (CIS) offers students the opportunity to delve into a specific area of interest beyond our prescribed curriculum. It encourages exploration, problem-solving, and practical applicability to management situations. With a dedicated faculty mentor, students receive guidance and support throughout the study, ensuring a focused and productive approach. The course emphasizes industry collaboration, allowing students to tackle real-time problems and gain valuable insights into current business practices. By bridging the gap between theory and implementation, this study equips students with practical skills, knowledge, and a well-rounded educational experience in management. It promotes an immersive and interdisciplinary learning approach for a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter.

Live projects from companies are collaborative initiatives in which students work on real- world business projects with the sponsoring organizations. These projects provide students with an opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge and skills to practical challenges, gaining valuable industry experience. Through partnerships with companies, students engage in hands-on work, analysing data, conducting research, and developing strategies or solutions to address actual business problems. They receive guidance from faculty members and industry mentors, allowing them to learn from professionals in the field. Live projects foster the integration of theory and practice, preparing students for the realities of the business world and enhancing their employability.
