Acredited by AMBA, as Full time MBA

The essential spring of all growth is


within you. All that you can get from
without is some food - material or
spiritual - with which to build your own
organism, and some stimulus to spur
you to activity. What is really essential
in your development,
you must do for yourself.

- ALFRED NORTH WHITEHEAD

A hundred times every day,


I remind myself that my inner
and outer life depend on
the labours of other men, living and
dead. And that I must exert
myself in order to give in the
same measure as I have received and
am still receiving.

- ALBERT EINSTEIN

Mission Statement
Our mission is to influence practice and promote value-based growth. Our students
will recognize, understand, and uphold the social relevance of business decisions,
including within the underserved sections of society.
We uphold this mission because we recognize our twin roles as a responsible member
of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan and as a responsive member of Indian society at large
and look at ourselves in a wider context as a Beyond MBA institution.
We will accomplish our mission through:
(a) Learner-centric pedagogy that will emphasize attitudes, including spirituality, and
skills as much as knowledge;
(b) Exposing students to value-based growth in underserved parts of our communities;
(c) Synthesis - in our intellectual contributions and curriculum - of competition - based
western efficiency and collaboration-centric eastern ethos; and
(d) Intellectual contributions aimed at influencing practice.
In our students, we recognize a predisposition and willingness to be a doer first. We
also emphasize sensitivity to the social footprint of business actions and the role of
spirituality in a balanced approach to decision making.
In our faculty members, we recognize a commitment to delivering outstanding
learner-centric pedagogy by taking advantage of the personal, residential nature of
our programs. We also require them to create and disseminate knowledge aimed at
influencing practice.
As a community, we will realize these objectives through integrity, self-accountability,
professional discipline, and hard work. We value operational freedom and uphold an
entrepreneurial, agile, flexible, and collaborative culture.

PGPM Class of 2014

From the
DEANS
DESK

Dear Recruiter,
It is my pleasure to introduce to you the class of 2014 of the Post Graduate Program in Management (PGPM)
at SPJIMR.
SPJIMR ranks among the top ten B-schools in India as a result of its pioneering program and innovative
pedagogy. Our mission is to influence practice and promote value-based growth, with a judicious blend of
western efficiency and eastern ethos.
PGPM, now in its tenth batch, is a 15-month, full-time residential program designed to be a career accelerator
for experienced professionals. A merit-based selection process is used to identify exceptional participants, who
then undergo a rigorous academic curriculum and engage in industry interactions. The program empowers
its participants to lead organizations in an increasingly complex and challenging business environment. I
firmly believe this program meets the industry need for lateral positions, which cannot be always fulfilled by
internal promotions.

Dr. M. L. Shrikant is a renowned expert on


strategy and management education.
He has served on the boards of several firms in
India & USA. He is a Doctorate from Harvard
Business School, an MBA from Cornell University
and an MS from University of Illinois.

The class of 2014 stands out in terms of the diversity of the participants backgrounds, depth of knowledge,
work experience, motivation and commitment. It has highly determined individuals with the right talent,
outlook and experience to be assets to your organization. It is also noteworthy that the PGPM alumni have
been enthusiastically welcomed back by industry into strategic positions.
I invite you to be a part of our placement process for the PGPM class of 2014.

About

SPJIMR

Bharatiya Vidya Bhavans S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research


(SPJIMR) was inaugurated in 1981 by the then British Prime Minister Rt. Honble
Margaret Thatcher. As one of the Asias finest business schools, consistently
ranked among the top 10 in India, SPJIMR has persistently built on its unique
strength of imparting high quality management education through pedagogic
innovations, encouraging business-academia interface and emphasizing on its
twin objective of Influencing Practice and Promoting Value-based Growth.

INFLUENCING PRACTICE
The initiatives and innovations at SPJIMR aim to influence industry practices and
therefore be a participant in reshaping the nation. The learning imbibed through
a flexible and versatile curriculum develops in students, not only a capacity for
analysis and judgment, but also an innate ability to relate to social problems
and then draw upon their own resources for understanding and action.

PROMOTING VALUE-BASED GROWTH


SPJIMR propounds that individuals need to build the right blend between
concern for their own welfare and social good. Thus the institute encourages
development of a co-operative outlook that recognizes the value of sharing
and mutual respect. This is emphasized in the curriculum through practical
experiential learning as well as by example

for innovative business practices and social value through the integration of

for heightened social, economic and environmental benefit. Through
collaborative effort, it is possible to optimize the use of limited resources,
leading to more appropriate and relevant business practices. SPJIMR strongly
advocates collaborative efforts for achieving higher than normal returns from
investments.

NETWORKING
As a management institute, SPJIMR encourages its functioning within a wider
social and cultural environment with an emphasis on critical socio-economic
processes that are shaping business today. SPJIMR endeavours to amalgamate
these diverse perceptions and demands in order to generate a more relevant
and significant management education for India. In this respect, SPJIMR attempts
to be seen as a major trendsetter in management education today.

About
PGPM

SPJIMRs Post Graduate Program in Management (PGPM) is a 15 months


program targeted at professionals with at least five years of work experience.
Program participants commence with a 3 months blended learning followed
by a 12 months full time residential program. All India Council for Technical
Education (AICTE) and the Association of MBAs (AMBA), UK have accredited
the program.
SPJIMR perceived the need of the industry for thought leaders in middle level
management and successfully endeavored to create the PGPM course. The
program in its tenth year has challenged the paradigm of conventional parttime courses for working executives.
The unique aspect of the program is the specific focus on the role and domain
that the participant is interested to pursue. The customized approach ensures:

- Contextually specific role and domain focus


- Functionally integrated teaching-learning process

Positioning and Philosophy


The course caters to specific industry requirements as it combines domain
focused expertise with a general management perspective. The program has
a unique model of combining the IPIPI (Industry Project Integrated Placement
Initiative) with General Electives giving the participant a holistic approach
towards contemporary business environment.

Industry Need
The rapid growth of business has broached the need for a very large number
of middle level and senior level management professionals in most companies.
They are required to have a general management perspective with focused
domain expertise on the businesses they serve. The current demand for such
professionals is expected to far exceed the availability. Internal promotions
within the organization alone will not be sufficient to feed this demand.
10

PGPM Class of 2014

The PGPM program is a very intensive course that has been developed after
detailed interactions with industry to meet specific skill enhancement requirements
of middle management. The growing popularity of this program as demonstrated
by increased demand from prospective applicants and superior placement,
is a testimonial to its success in filling a critical gap.

Dr. Indu Niranjan, Dy Director, PGPM

Participant Need
The PGPM program is best suited for working professionals to add value to
their careers in a short time. It provides a great opportunity to those participants
who want to rejoin the industry quickly at higher remunerations. The program
is rigorous, challenging and intense. It encourages learning beyond classroom
discussions and the intense process prepares participants to analyze situations quickly and
apply skills to real business scenarios.
Participants learn to combine industry expertise with the fundamentals of management
that one is exposed to, over the year. Successful leaders and entrepreneurs regularly visit
the campus to provide their perspectives on the ever-changing dynamics of the industry.

Final Evaluation

At SPJIMR, we focus on the Attitudes (To Be) and Skills (To Do)
aspects of management education as much as Knowledge
(To Know) aspect.
Though due importance is given to classroom learning, the
effort is made to build suitable stimuli into non-classroom
learning, on which the participants can base their own self
development architecture.

PLACEMENTS
INITIATIVE
[IPIPI]
IPIPI is a unique and unconventional method of industry engagement.
In this initiative, participants work as Consultants on a project or
an assignment, helping a Company find solutions to some of its
pressing issues.
Its a win-win for both the participants and the Company.
Participants get to apply their latest and advanced concepts to real
world situations and the Company gets enough time to evaluate
them for full-time roles.
The engagement during IPIPI is done through offline projects, since
the participants continue to attend lectures as per the curriculum.
Companies can select interested participants for an engagement
during the months of April to August with a view of recruiting them
during the placement process held in September and October.

and functions within the organization.
Participants establish a connection with the employer and they benefit from a hands-on
opportunity to apply their managerial learning.

SAMAVESH
Samavesh, a mid year event organized by PGPM, serves as a platform that fosters industry - academia
interaction. This gala event consists of series of panel discussions and networking sessions wherein
CXO level industry experts discuss current trends, opportunities and challenges for growth. The
sessions are highly interactive and provide a holistic view of the subject matter. Participants acquire
comprehensive insight about the Knowledge, Skills & Attitude (KSA) required to pursue challenging
leadership roles. Previous speakers in Samavesh included Dr. D. K. Joshi, Mr. Sujan Roy, Mr. Vikas
Gupta, Mr. Neil Basu,Mr. Murali Ramakrishnan & Mr. Vineet Rai. SAMAVESH 2013 primarily
featured Theme Based keynote addresses, panel discussions, research paper presentation.

2013 Samavesh Themes:


IM Theme Disruptive IT trends - Driving business growth
Operations Theme Risk Management Strategies for Operational Excellence
Finance Theme Indian Banking Industry-Emerging Challenges and Opportunities
Marketing Theme Transition from Marketing 2.0 to 3.0 : Value based Marketing

Indias rapid growth is increasingly underpinned by its traditional industries seeking to expand
globally and the new services industries scaling up domestically. To manage both these models,
India will continue to have high demand for new talent with a holistic understanding of business
models, organization management, financial planning and enabling technologies. The SPJIMR
PGPM Program has been ideally designed to meet this holistic need and aims to rapidly hone
up students with at least five years of work experience - who already understand the competitive
nature of business and appreciate how organizations work. In my interaction with the current
batch, I found them to be articulate, confident, very well informed and above all, risks takers.
The skills that this batch emerges with will make them extremely attractive for consulting and
advisory firms.

TESTIMONIALS
In terms of giving a holistic
management learning experience,
PGPM at SPJIMR does what it promises
and a lot more. From the humbling experience of working
with NGOs for DOCC, to the spiritual healing enabled by
Gita Shibir, coupled with projects that are done in diverse
groups, the course has been an eye-opener in terms of
how this one year can actually be a life-altering time for a
participant. When I enrolled for the MBA, little did I imagine
that the experience would transform me for the better, both
as a professional and as a human being.
Koeyli Jaluka

DGM- Branding & Communications, Mahindra &


Mahindra
The PGPM course at SPJIMR, is probably one of
the few courses in the country that has the right
theoretical & practical mix, that helps us take
decisions in this extremely dynamic business world.Excellent pedagogy,
fruitful industry interactions & top class faculty gave me a learning
experience of a life time.
- Varun Raj Kumar Iyer,
Business Development Cognizant Technology Solutions,
Batch of 2013

My journey at SPJIMR was full of emotions and


learning. I came here after working for some big
organizations and good corporate experience. In
these organizations I learnt a lot of technical and
managerial skills but the focus was restricted to a
particular industry. PGPM gave me an opportunity to learn what true
business is all about. Subjects across various terms gave me complete
insight into how business works, various industry and most importantly,
various business units in a business. Working in the Placement Committee
gave me an opportunity to work with people with rich experience and
from various industries. This really helped me learn what leadership and
management is all about.
Gurpreet Singh Saini
Manager- Operations, Flipkart

The one year at PGPM was a very


rewarding experience - not just
financially, but at an idiosyncratic
level as well. It is a journey of
academic, social and spiritual
growth, a period of experiment and self discovery. I am
sure much has been said about the program in many a
context, but I would like to particularly draw attention to
the very carefully drafted Industry Integration programme.
The institute uses its association with industry figureheads
well by asking them to design the curriculum in line with
industry requirements. Through the year, many leaders visit
the campus to bring insights, guide and mentor students.
In effect, this ensures that the academia treads a path in
line with real demand. Many of our batchmates got the
opportunity to do projects through the year with these leaders
which not just shone on their resumes, but also translated
in coveted jobs in the end. Efforts in this respect - both by
student committees and program office bore fruit. I wish to
thank the institute and the program for the wonderful year
and the continued alliance.
Nakul Marwah
Associate Manager - IT Strategy & Transformation at
Accenture

PGPM at SPJIMR was one of the best years of my


life. It gave me an opportunity to interact with some
of the smartest, most enthusiastic, opinionated
and aware people. The curriculum was rigorous and- yet subjects like
Gita Shibir, PG Lab & DOCC managed to take the learning beyond the
classroom. Apart from faculty, numerous guest lectures from industry
leaders helped us to be in touch with current industry trends. Personally
the program helped improve my ability to understand, define, approach
and solve business problems.
Antriksh Sinha
Senior Consultant, Cognizant Business Consulting

SPJIMR gives you an opportunity to be in the midst


of extremely talented people, who carry with them
several years of lessons from both work and life.
Each day at the institute is a learning experience
and the teachings can come from any direction. Be it the sessions by
the faculty, each with industry experience of their own, or be it the peer
discussions and debates, or be it the role plays, the case discussions, the
presentations; all of them begin to make sense with each passing day.
Like Steve Jobs rightly said, you cannot connect the dots looking forward;
you can only connect them looking back. And am I glad I connected the
dot that taught me so much: SPJIMR.
