If you are interested in operations and you do enjoy your work as Procurement and warehouse management then you should do pgdm in operations management.iif you are choosing this you can get help to grow by your experience as both are important parts of a supply chain.The operations ladder you know can lead you upto being the COO of a company.

In india there are many top institute for operations management they are

  • IIM Banglore
  • IIM Lucknow
  • New Delhi Institute of Managment
  • NITIE Mumbai
  • SJMSOM IIT Bombay
  • DMS IIT Delhi
  • FORE School of Management

Now coming to pgdm in agri business it is also good opportunity but you need to start from scratch and it takes time to move to top position.you can get job position like accounting, finance, and banking, as well as controlling seed yield, farm management, global marketing, and retail sales in agriculture.decision is yours make the most of it ..

  2. Skill Development : You will gain expertise in managing operations, optimizing processes, and improving efficiency, which is valuable in any business environment.

  3. Career Opportunities : Graduates can pursue roles like Operations Manager, Supply Chain Analyst, or Logistics Manager in diverse industries, offering potentially higher salaries and job prospects.

    PGDM in Agri Business Management

  4. Specialization : This program focuses specifically on the agricultural sector, which might align better with your background and work experience in procurement and warehouse management.

  5. Industry Relevance : It prepares you for roles that involve managing agricultural supply chains, agricultural marketing, and farm management, making it highly relevant to your current career.
