The ISB offers several unique advantages never before available in India. In one bold stroke, the ISB has made accessible fresh and current management thinking and has raised benchmarks in education to meet and often exceed international standards. The academic content, the teaching methods, and the setting in which the two come together have a long lasting and indelible impact on everyone who experiences it.
World Class Faculty and Rich Academic Content
The ISB’s faculty model attracts the best of faculty from all over the world to teach in its programmes. The faculty, drawn from leading institutions, bring international industry experience, research based knowledge, and teaching expertise to the classroom. The CEE has the unique advantage of drawing faculty with relevant industry experience from any top institution to design and deliver programmes that are valuable to the organisation.
Focus on Emerging Market Issues
The ISB has established seven Centres of Excellence: the Wadhwani Centre for Entrepreneurship Development (WCED), the Centre for Global Logistics & Manufacturing Strategies (GLAMS), the Centre for Analytical Finance (CAF), the Srini Raju Centre for IT and the Networked Economy (SRITNE), Centre for Leadership, Innovation and Change (CLIC), Centre for Emerging Markets Solutions (CEMS) and Centre for Case Development (CCD). One more Centre of Excellence on Strategic Marketing will be established shortly. The Centres collaborate with international institutions and faculty and conduct cutting- edge research on emerging market issues. The relevant findings are immediately shared in the classroom.
The Learning Experience
Faculty maximise the ISB’s excellent infrastructure to make the learning experience interactive and enjoyable. In addition to lectures and group work, varieties of technology assisted approaches such as video conferences, web based learning, live simulation exercises and a host of other methods are used to make a strong impact and ensure that the learning becomes part of every individual’s DNA.
Immediately Applicable Action Projects
Every programme includes action projects for all participants, designed in consultation with the organisation’s senior management. The projects are immediately applied to existing issues in the organisation and are actively supervised by faculty to achieve beneficial solutions. This ensures that academic inputs are at once translated into practical and applicable knowledge that has a lasting impact on both the employee and the organisation.
Transformation Made Feasible
Organisational transformation and leadership development can be a long and complex process. CEE has worked with large organisations on initiatives where learning is spread over long periods of time and seamlessly integrated with workplace projects that directly impact the organisation. This learning is delivered through multiple classroom sessions, global industry visits, and facilitated action projects. CEE has developed the expertise to create learning solutions for complex organisational issues using innovative pedagogies. These interventions are spread over time to make the transformation smooth, effective, and long lasting.
Excellent Infrastructure
Modern classrooms equipped with the latest technology, the breathtaking architecture, the inspiring academic centre, the excellent library, comfortable residences, and large, green, open spaces make an indelible impression. Combined with the academic rigour and impressive faculty, the awe inspiring infrastructure of the ISB transforms every individual who experiences it.
Competitive Advantage
In a fast changing world economy, rich and fresh content adds an edge to the organisations repertoire of knowledge. The CEE teams, along with the diverse faculty pool, have developed domain expertise and a rich body of knowledge across several industries such as oil and gas, banking and financial services, insurance, telecom, consultancy services, and several others. Companies derive great benefit from the insights as they are used extensively to generate unique solutions for the industry and the organisation, across various levels of management.
