Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science & Technology, Earth Sciences and Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office, Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Department of Atomic Energy and Department of Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh today said that India's 'Whole of Government' approach calls for convergence of diverse individual and institutional capacities.
Dr. Singh emphasized that institutional and professional strengths need to align for national goals. Capacity building should extend beyond individual competencies to foster synergy among institutions.
He inaugurated the third batch of DAKSH, a year-long leadership programme for senior executives of Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs), organized by the Capacity Building Commission (CBC) and Standing Conference of Public Enterprises (SCOPE).
The programme aims to prepare executives for Board-level responsibilities through structured capacity development.
Dr. Singh noted increasing female representation in the programme, indicating shifts in leadership demographics.
