WE PREPARE OUR STUDENTS FOR RESILIENCE

Q/ What are the trends you have observed in management education, both in India and globally?

A/ All businesses are going through major transformation or have already gone through transformation. So the workplace environment is completely new and, as a leading management school, we have to keep a track of it and prepare our students for that kind of an environment. Since we are creating future leaders, we should prepare the students to be capable enough to adopt [changing] technology quickly. They should also know how technology will transform and how the transformation will help.

To prepare them for all this, we need to change our curriculum. The course names will be the same as we will still teach strategy, but now it is the strategy of a digital, emerging and innovative organisation. Earlier it was strategy focused on consumer tech, the high performing organisation or the stable organisation.
