Isb PGP Manufacturing and Operations Club
Professional Club
Manufacturing and Operations Club (ManOps)
Overview
Operations is the backbone of every successful organisation. From supply chain strategy to process excellence, operations thinking drives how businesses create and sustain value. The Operations Management Club (OMC) at ISB exists to build that thinking in its members and to prepare them to lead across functions, industries, and roles.
One of ISB's oldest professional clubs, OMC comprises 130+ members across both campuses, drawn from Manufacturing, Consulting, BFSI, Oil & Gas, Logistics, Technology, FMCG, and the Armed Forces. This diversity of experience ensures that every initiative the club undertakes is derives inspiration from the real-world context and multidimensional perspectives.
Operations Management Club takes a broad view of operations - one that extends well beyond the shop floor and manufacturing. General management, in particular, is an area of growing focus for the club. As businesses increasingly look for leaders who can operate across functions. OMC aims to bridge the gap between operational expertise and broader leadership capability. The most effective leaders are those who understand how organisations truly function - how processes scale, where value is lost, and how cross-functional decisions translate into business outcomes. These are operations competencies, and they are increasingly central to leadership roles across industries.
The club caters to the desire to further learn and explore applications of Operations through various skill development workshops, Six Sigma certifications, industry speaker sessions, alumni engagement programmes, simulation-based workshops, data Analytics and visualization masterclasses, etc. A bi-weekly newsletter keeps the broader cohort informed on the latest in supply chain, digital transformation, and operations strategy from across the globe.
The club is led by a core team of 10+ members across campuses averaging approximately five years of pre-ISB professional experience from diverse sets of backgrounds. OMC is a member-driven community committed to making operations relevant, rigorous, and rewarding whether you are targeting a career in consulting, general management, supply chain, or technology. Operations Management club hopes to pique the interest of the cohort and nudge them to explore a career in Operations and General Management via learning the concepts through various Electives, Certification courses and case studies.

Bethi Sai Shirish Reddy
Vice President
Shirish is a Mechanical Engineering graduate from IIT Madras. Before joining ISB, he was doing what most people only read about in textbooks - building operations from scratch across Med-Tech, FMCG, and Pharma. From greenfield manufacturing lines to large-scale supply chain ramp-ups, he has been where the action actually is - building, scaling, and fixing operations across industries, under real pressure.
What drives him is a simple but powerful conviction: Operations is not a back-office function. It is the strategic backbone of every business which makes it one of the most exciting and wide-open career paths a business school can offer.
As Vice President of the Operations Management Club, Shirish's mission is clear - to make sure no one at ISB leaves without knowing every Ops role that exists, understanding what each one demands, and finding the path where they will truly thrive. Whether that's Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Consulting, Tech Ops, or a startup - his goal is to build the Clarity, Capability, and Connections that make that choice possible.
He is a cricket enthusiast, a trekker who has summited Kedarkantha at 12,500 feet, and someone who believes that the best Ops lessons are always learned the hard way - and that's exactly what makes them stick.
