Being a CEO
Being a CEO,' a leadership talk series offers a unique platform for the MBAEx students to interact with and learn from industry
leaders. The objective of this series is to facilitate interaction of the students with top executives who have managed large
organizations and have a plethora of experiences to share on leadership, people management, policies and regulations, and
numerous other real issues they deal with on a regular basis. Another key objective of these sessions is to understand executive
decision making under different business contexts.
During the past few years, the MBAEx students have had the privilege of hosting CEO level speakers from Banking, Finance,
Defence, Retail, Automotive, and IT industries to name a few. One of the greatest benefits students derive from such interactions
is to understand more clearly what they study in the classroom and connect them with the ground realities. In today's increasingly
complex business world, it is imperative that business school students understand the importance of ethical practices and
standards. This platform gives a great opportunity to hear first-hand experiences from top CEOs on how to run businesses
ethically. Getting a flavor of the business complexities through such interactions helps students in figuring out the challenges that
await them in future and equip them with a holistic understanding of how to tackle such challenges.
