Leadership Associate
Program
Leadership Associate Program (LEAP) is a general management program for candidates with 0 to 36 months of full-time pre-MBA work experience. In the first year, participants undergo 3 cross-functional stints across multiple businesses. Each stint is 4 months long. Some participants may also be given the opportunity to undergo stints in many of the Group’s overseas locations. Upon successful completion of 3 stints, participants are placed into a full-time role in a function of their choice with one of the Group’s businesses.
Students pursuing a full-time MBA from select business schools with 0 – 36 months of pre-MBA work experience are eligible to apply for the LEAP program. We currently hire students from India’s top business schools such as:
We also recruit students from other top business schools based on their exemplary performance in campus competitions/ wildcard rounds or scholastic excellence.
Every ABGLP LEAP participant undergoes 1 year of training, which consists of 3 stints of 4 months each across different functions and businesses. Some participants are also given the opportunity to undergo stints in many of the Group’s overseas locations.
