Transform functional experts into impactful leaders with our certified people manager training (CPM®) designed to develop the conversations, framework-driven systems, and mindsets needed to improve culture, performance, and talent retention.
Often, people are promoted based on their functional expertise and are expected to lead others without formal people management training. CPM® is our flagship program for leaders who manage people. It transforms participants from taskmasters to strategic leaders.
Only 23% of Indian employees feel engaged at work, marking a 4-year low in workplace commitment.
Managers account for at least 70% of the variance in team engagement levels.
Engagement among Indian managers fell significantly from 39% to 30%, weakening their ability to support direct reports.
The average employee attrition rate across corporate India stands at 17.1%, driving up talent replacement and onboarding costs.
Workplace disengagement costs the Indian economy an estimated $351 billion (approx. ₹32.7 trillion) in lost productivity annually.

Most organizations heavily invest in strategy and technical upskilling while assuming people-management capability will develop on its own. It doesn’t.
Technical promotions leave new managers equipped with tasks, but lacking people management training.
Performance reviews happen annually, but rarely build trust without dedicated performance management training for managers.
Organizations encourage growth, but few managers undergo structured manager coaching training with a repeatable execution model.
Engagement is tracked at the corporate level rather than diagnosed and fixed at the team level.
Companies struggle to fill internal leadership roles because managers aren’t systematically developing their bench.

Managers don’t earn a people management certification simply for showing up. Certification requires clearing attendance, work-based assignments, and demonstrating measurable growth via a post-program 90-degree assessment.
Replaces generic supervisory theory with concrete tools like the GROW Model, OFNR, and 9-Block Talent Matrix.
Moves beyond single-day workshops to an end-to-end transformation path:
The program is engineered for managers who directly lead teams of individual contributors—ranging from newly promoted managers seeking foundational people management certification to established leaders refining their approach.
CPM® is available in both formats: a five-month in-person delivery or a 135-day virtual journey. Both tracks follow identical rigors, core modules, frameworks, and certification criteria.
Participants complete practical, work-based assignments between sessions, participate in 4 scheduled group mentoring sessions, and utilize an ongoing engagement platform for peer and facilitator guidance.
Unlike standard supervisory workshops, CPM® provides concrete toolkits (such as the GROW model and 9-block talent model), requires demonstrated workplace application through assignments, and measures hard behavioral growth via pre- and post-programme 90-degree assessments.
When managers lead with clarity, empathy, and frameworks, teams thrive and business outcomes follow. Partner with Pragati Leadership to deliver a high-impact certified people manager training program for your organization today.
