New Delhi: Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Kozhikode organised its 12th annual Indian Management Conference (IMC) 2022 which was put on by MBAuniverse.com. The ceremony was attended by various IIM directors including former president Ramnath Kovind.
At IMC 2022, a theme paper with the title Measuring Outcomes of MBA Education was published for media, research, and other agencies. Additionally, the IMC Awards for excellence in management were awarded based on jury selection as part of the IMC conference.
During the event at IIM Kozhikode, the prize distributed to participants included various themes such as assessing business readiness, strategy and outcomes and measuring academic learning, and framework and implementation.
In the first theme, TAMPI Manipal took home the gold medal while the school of management at the Hindustan Institute of Management Sciences took home the silver. In the second theme, the Bangalore-based XIME took home silver while the Jagdish Sheth School of Management (JAGSoM) received gold.
At the IMC conclave and IMC Awards, speakers who shared their opinions are Former President Ramnath Kovind, Shyam Srinivasan, CEO of Federal Bank, and Suresh Narayanan, Chairman and Managing Director of Nestle India.
The former president of India, Ram Nath Kovind, spoke to the attendees and said, “The expectations from B-schools are changing significantly. The role of faculty is not only traditional teaching in the classroom. They must be Explorers, Enablers, Mentors and Guides - 'inspired teachers'".
"It is also time that we focus on producing Entrepreneurs and Socially Responsible business leaders as India needs more entrepreneurs and it is time that B-schools should focus on nurturing Entrepreneurs who are job-creators, and not just jobseekers" he further added.
Debashis Chatterjee, Director of IIM Kozhikode, who served as the event's host institution for the 12th edition of the Indian Management Conclave, said, In the current context it has become imperative for b-schools to focus on not just meeting MBA outcomes but also redefining what we expect from our MBAs.
Indian business schools need to focus on developing leaders who can solve problems, invent new things, and create jobs rather than merely preparing students for the corporate world. Given that these young minds have a lot more to offer, MBA outcomes shouldn't be confined to corporate employment and wage packages.
