Hello Professional HR & Business Veterans, Please find attached a very inspiring management lesson article in ET on Value Proposition of Executive Education Programme.

I completed the Executive MBA program from IIM Indore (Business Administration) and from Narsi Monjee Institute Mumbai (in Finance Management) on my first attempt. Currently, I am working in a BPO as an Operations Manager. I aspire to transition into the finance field, but companies are hesitant to consider me for a finance manager role because they do not view the Executive MBA program as equivalent to a regular MBA. The most they offer me is an entry-level position, which I am not interested in.
Even in operations, when I applied for AGM or DGM level positions, I was not considered due to my Executive MBA, whereas they hired someone from IIM Indore as a VP in the same organization. I understand that he completed a regular course, which is significant, but he lacked experience, unlike me with over 6 years of experience. I also worked hard to pass a PAT test for IIM. Am I not eligible for a DGM level position, which is four levels below VP? I am aware that both programs are AICTE approved. I need clarification on whether an Executive MBA from a distance learning program is recognized or not.
Thank you.
