"The Institute wishes to express its gratitude to the doctors who faced this challenge amid the pandemic first and helped the nation get through these difficult times. I have seen doctors taking care of patients unceasingly for hours without a break," says Prof. Himanshu Rai, Director, IIM Indore.
"It's overwhelming to see, that despite being underequipped, short-staffed, overworked, and away from their families for weeks, these doctors have been determined to save each and every patient who sought their attention, especially during this pandemic, just to make sure that all of us are safe and healthy. It is the result of such a selfless service from the doctors, which has given the nation a way to overcome the first and second waves of COVID-19," he adds.
The regular cost of the leadership development programme is Rs. 1.5 Lakh per participant. However, it will be free of cost for the selected 100 frontline doctors.
