Overview

The programme begins with an immersive one-week residency at either ISB’s Hyderabad or Mohali campus, setting the stage for an engaging learning journey. Following this, classes follow a flexible alternate-weekend format, with online sessions on intervening Fridays or Saturdays, providing seamless integration with your professional commitments.

Midway, participants will gain global insights through a week-long international residency in Asia, deepening cross-cultural and strategic understanding. The journey culminates with a final residency week at one of ISB’s campuses, where knowledge and connections are consolidated, equipping you to lead with impactful insights.

Learning Goals

The programme fosters a supportive learning environment where participants engage deeply with faculty and peers. Throughout this journey, they are encouraged to unlearn, reflect, and expand their boundaries. The programme’s critical learning outcomes centre on practical insights, strategic thinking, and impactful leadership skills.

Leadership Skills

Have heightened awareness of what it takes to exercise effective leadership at senior levels through key initiatives, effective execution, influencing, inspiring and empowering people and managing change.

Critical and Integrating Thinking

Demonstrate an ability to identify the central problem/issue, despite limited or overwhelming information, draw and assess recommendations using a perspective that integrates both functional (i.e. business functions) and relevant external information, and deploy them effectively to solve business problems.

Global Awareness

Understand the nature of global issues impacting business, including competition, policies, politics, culture and customers and have the ability to manage them effectively.

Ethical Responsibility

Have the ability to make responsible decisions through enhanced sensitivity to various stakeholders, communities, and the environment that are affected by management decisions.

Pedagogy

The programme starts with online preparatory courses that form the foundation for future courses.

Online Preparatory Modules

Online pre-term modules created by ISB faculty to refresh knowledge of quantitative analysis, accounting, and finance.

Pre-Course Reading Material

Pre-course reading materials which are in the form of text books, cases, articles etc. will be made available to all participants in advance. Participants are expected to spend 8 to 10 hours per week studying these materials before they come for classes each term. Online assessments and pre-course projects are also incorporated into the programme to ensure academic rigour.

Online Component

The programme includes a part of each course being taught online – either synchronously or asynchronously. This helps in getting the concepts clarified before actual classroom sessions begin or to conclude the classroom sessions with a wrap-up.

Classroom Discussion

The classroom discussions are an integral part of each course. The enriching lectures and discussion are key to learning concepts.

Cases

Cases from various sectors and geographies are discussed and debated to understand the applicability of management concepts to real life examples.

Simulation

Business simulations, which mimic real-life business situations are used to help participants apply theoretical concepts for decision-making.

Industry Speakers / Visits

Speaker series or visits may be organised during the course. These interactions complement classroom learning and bring in practical perspectives to management theories. The speakers discuss diverse topics such as international growth, corporate diversity, entrepreneurship, corporate ethics and consumer behaviour. The School also hosts a number of annual conferences and seminars with distinguished business leaders and entrepreneurs as guest speakers.
