Management practice

THE INDIAN School of Business (ISB) has announced that Rajat Gupta, former Managing Director-Worldwide of McKinsey & Company; N.R. Narayana Murthy, Chairman and Chief Mentor, Infosys Technologies Limited; and Dr. C. Rangarajan, Chairman of the 12th Finance Commission and former Governor, Andhra Pradesh, have been invited to teach at the ISB as Professors of Management Practice.

ISB is introducing a new faculty position called `Visiting Professor of Management Practice'. Eminent industry leaders and professionals will be invited to join the faculty of the ISB to share their practical experiences and learning by offering either full credit courses or `expert modules' for the post-graduate programme in Management, or through short term executive education programmes. While Gupta will develop and teach modules on `Competitive Strategies in the Global Market', Murthy and Dr. C Rangarajan will teach elective courses on `Leadership & Corporate Responsibility' and `Understanding Economics in a Developing Economy' respectively. According to Prof Vijay Mahajan, Dean, Indian School of Business, "the ISB is dedicated to providing the best management education. Inviting leading management practitioners to teach current management practices is a trend followed by the best Business Schools across the world. After all, the best teachers of management practice are its real-world practitioners, and better still when the teachers are leaders of international standing and repute." Besides the above mentioned three who will teach this year, other industry leaders and professionals will also be invited to join the ISB faculty in the forthcoming years.
