Press Release

December 3, 2009: The Indian School of Business (ISB) today announced the launch of PGPMAX - a Post Graduate Programme in Management for Senior Executives. The programme will be offered part time over a period of 15 months and is specifically designed for senior industry executives with an average work experience of 15 years.

Announcing the programme, Ajit Rangnekar, Dean, ISB said, “Eight years after the successful launch of the one-year programme, the ISB is now launching PGPMAX, a post graduate programme for senior industry executives. Consistent feedback from industry leaders over the years revealed the need for developing a leadership pipeline, and this has been the driving force for us to create this ambitious programme. I am confident that PGPMAX too will break new ground in management education in India.”

PGPMAX will have leading faculty from top B- schools and industry experts around the world bringing in latest business practices that can be applied immediately by these executives in their respective organisations. The participants are expected to be not just from large private corporations, but also from PSUs, NGOs, SMEs, and family run businesses. The programme will commence from June 2010 onwards at the School’s Hyderabad campus.
