    XLRI – Xavier School of Management

    Jamshedpur

    Dear Recruiter,

    In today's corporate world, the management graduates, in general, have vast theoretical knowledge but lack

    substantial industry experience. This makes them unappreciative of the real world challenges, which companies

    and industries encounter on a day-to-day basis. To overcome this serious gap, XLRI pioneered the PGDM

    (General Management) in 1997,as a program for middle-level and senior level managers across sectors to hone

    their managerial experience and skills by providing a strong grounding on management theories.

    The participants are practicing managers with more than 800 years of cumulative experience, including

    international exposure, in diverse functions and domains and share the flair of excelling in every task they

    undertake. The teaching methodology for PGDM (GM) is rigorous and well rounded, blending business acumen

    in the fundamental courses with a wide range of electives. This AICTE approved, 15-months long, fully

    residential program has a healthy mix of classroom lectures and discussions, and case based studies andprojects, enriching the participants with a broader outlook. It also encourages them to think beyond their limits

    and identify out-of-the-box solutions, while challenging the status quo.

    The program offers a unique opportunity to develop a holistic understanding of various business functions,

    maximize peer to peer learning and gain a leading edge in their areas of interest. The graduates not only carry

    with them the requisite functional knowledge but also possess relevant industry experience that makesthem well

    prepared and deployabl e right from the start in various organizational roles and divis ions in the industry.

    I welcome you to come and interact with these highly motivated future leader s of ever transforming, competitive,

    and increasingly global world.

    Dear Recruiter,

    Today's dynamic business environment is competitive, far reaching, transcending boundaries whilst

    seamlessly connecting economies across the globe. To survive in this highly competitive landscape all

    players – old and new - need to defend thei r market territory or create new ones.

    Keeping in mind today's marketplace it is important for executives to continuously update their

    knowledge base and acquire new skill-sets and competencies. At XLRI we help guide our students with

    industry ready course content, engaging lectures and ample faculty interactions. Our approach to

    learning embraces a meticulously, “explore-every-solution” attitude and an appraisal of every business

    problem through the lens of varied management disciplines.

    Academic excellence, together with moral rectitude and intellectual integrity is the essence of XLRI

    which ensures that our students are groomed to become successful leaders by honing their skil ls to

    make an impact in the world.

    XLRI has added yet another feather to its cap by receiving the coveted the international accredi tation

    with the Association of MBAs (AMBA), UK.

    I am certain that with the highly-valued academic inpu ts extended to the program, the future business

    leaders are ready to lead your organization towards sustainable growth and development.

    I welcome you to come and interact with these highly motivated future leaders of ever transforming,

    competitive, and increasingly global world.

    industry sectors. The program offers them a holistic

    XLRI began its journey in the year 1949, pioneering management education in

    India. The institute over the years has shaped enthusiastic minds into future

    business leaders with competence and dedication. After six il lustrious decades,

    there is the same focus and the same commitment towards honing and building

    business leadership. The institute is still recognized as one of the strongest

    pillars supporting the progress of Indian Business Environment. XLRI is unique

    in that it passes on its spirit of “Magis” - ever greater, ever better, excellence- to

    its students and propels them to strive for integral development apart from

    academic excellence. Its understanding that multitude of skills and

    competencies form the key to success in the business world is a critical and

    matured one.

    Its value based system propels its protégés to balance the dichotomy of

    Innovation vs. Exploitation

    Patriotism vs. Global vision

    Assertiveness vs. Humility and

    Profit vs. Social Consciousness.

    UNLOCKING THE UNCHARTEDExcellence begins when newer grounds are ventured into, when stranger

    tides are taken on. It's all about going beyond the seen. XLRI addresses

    the potential value of using collaborative technology and the importance

    of identifying specific business drivers for successful enterprise

    collaboration initiatives in our managers.

    Faculty Says

    The PGDM (GM) batch this year was one I taught with a lot of anticipation. I must say that

    this anticipatory expectation was completely fulfilled. The batch is highly motivated,

    sincere and hard working. This is only to be expected from people who have been middle

    level managers with a minimum of five years' experience. The experience itself is diverse,

    ranging from IT solutions, to product marketing, finance and data handling, lending a rich

    variety of interactions in the classroom. Many have been exposed to internationalscenarios, which have vastly expanded their horizons.

    I am positive these managers of today would make great leaders tomorrow.

    Dr Tamonas Gangopadhyay

    Professor, Production, Operations & Decision Sciences

    XLRI – Xavier School of Management, Jamshedpur

    I taught PGDM (GM)2015-16 batch after a gap of 3-4 years. For the past four years my

    interaction with GM students was more or less informal. From day one of this academic

    year, I noticed that this year's batch is different from previous years' on account of

    discipline, keenness to learn, and punctuality. Their inquisitiveness to understand

    implications of Macro-Economic environment for businesses enriched the class

    participation and discussion. I have always been amazed at finding the diverse set of

    students deep in discussion even outside the classroom, unlike their younger counterparts

    on the same campus.

    I am sure that this batch's cross-cultural exposure to different sectors and functions, both

    in India and outside India, will enable each one of them to stand out in their future
