Guiding Principles
MULTI-STAKEHOLDER PLATFORM: IMC is a multi-stakeholder platform that brings together Policy makers, Industry, Knowledge organizations and Service providers for the benefit of B-schools.
FACT-BASED PLATFORM: IMC is a fact-based platform, and not a podium for rhetoric. We conduct research and also invite knowledge organizations to share their analysis.
RESEARCH & DOCUMENT: IMC plays a role in researching and documenting best practices of Indian Management Education.
GLOBAL OUTLOOK: In a global world, there is no place for jingoism. B-schools must compete to excel or perish. IMC invites global thinkers and international organizations to share global best-practices.
Key Initiatives
To meet the objectives, IMC Conference has evolved into following initiatives:
- IMC Conference: Platform for global thinkers, policy makers, CXOs and top B-school leaders to share views and ideas to improve Indian management education.
- IMC Awards for Excellence in Management Education: Initiative to research & recognize the best initiatives from Indian Management Education.
- IMC Distinguished Alumni Awards: Recognizing Alumni Achievers who are true brand ambassadors for management education.
- IMC Faculty Workshops & Master Classes: To share latest teaching and pedagogical tools with faculty members.
