IIM Bangalore Executive Education’s Post

Teaching and Training with cases - 2 Almost 20 years ago, Professor Bala Chakravarthy at IMD Lausanne, Switzerland wrote a case on Internal Entrepreneurship at the Dow Chemical Company. Internal Entrepreneurship ( also known as intrapreneurship) happens when an employee initiates a new project on her own , in line with the strategy of the company. The company sponsors the project. Today, it is super important that employees are able to innovate through such projects particularly in large MNCs which are saddled with multiple divisions and bureaucratic processes. Why is it rare to find intrapreneurship in Indian companies? Apart from the topic, two things caught my attention 1. How good case studies can be very useful for training of senior executives. 2. Unlike conventional wisdom that asks for a 'problem statement' in a case study, good cases can also be built on good stories. Would love to hear about your experience. #casestudy #mba #management #education #teaching #training

One of the top concerns that we hear from some of the applicants is whether an MBA is worth the investment which could alternatively be invested in their business and could potentially give higher returns. There is no black or white here but IT DEPENDS! #MBA #Entrepreneurship #FamilyBusiness #ISB #BusinessEducation #CareerGrowth #IndiaBusiness #Leadership

Its not about having the right opportunities. Its about handling opportunities in the right way.

5 Things I Almost Did in My First Year of MBA at XLRI PGDM (IEV), and that helped me a lot. MBA is scary, and one in entrepreneurship is even more. "You need to define your ROI." How do you do that? Traditional MBA does not train someone to startup, and IMO, no course will unless you have the willpower to learn. The difference between entrepreneurs and a businessman is that an entrepreneur needs to be super-skilled to lead smart teams. Why should people listen to you if you are not the best in your work? Why did people listen to Harvey Spectre? Dr. Gregory House? Sherlock? Because they knew no one could think better than them. How can you be skilled in an unforgiving and super-paced business and entrepreneurial world? - Participate in Case Competitions: It's just an enabler, but it can be a lucrative one when done smartly. You need problem-solving and analytical skills to be a startup leader - Be part of an extracurricular/co-curricular committee: Able leaders can lead any team, as long as they are both strategic and a team player - Do Live Projects: Working on a live project is like baby steps into understanding and testing markets, ideas, and opportunities. You can fail and improve as you figure out the best results for a task. Perhaps identify gaps in the market no one else saw - Take your textbook seriously: If you want to be a leader, don't just read a book for the exam; learn whatever you can from it and then get rid of it. Resources are plenty, so choose well and eliminate once learned - Work with senior and smarter people: Once you rise in levels, even as an MBA student, you will grow a sense of ego. As a leader, you must know how to pacify them and utilize their sharp minds into a coordinated goal, making them realize why the goal is their responsibility I was late in understanding these pointers. Remember, be welcoming to the grind that MBA puts you through. Never expect things to be easy, and don't make them unnecessarily difficult either. Confused? Ah you will learn the art soon! #mbalessons #learn #implement #entrepreneur #leader #experience #personal #linkedin4creators

An entrepreneurial and innovative Higher Education Institution (HEI) is identified by core attributes, which the methodology categorises into four pillars: Entrepreneurial Education: This pillar focuses on the support and development of students' entrepreneurial skills. Mindset: Leadership and governance play a crucial role in this pillar. Innovation is driven by committed leadership that embraces and promotes entrepreneurial values, encouraging a proactive and risk-taking culture within the institution. Organisational Capacity: This pillar encompasses financial and human resources, as well as digital and physical infrastructure. It ensures that the institution has the necessary resources and capabilities to support and sustain entrepreneurial activities and initiatives. Ecosystem: A supportive environment is vital for an entrepreneurial HEI. The focus is on knowledge exchange, internationalisation, and building strong connections with external partners, industry, and the community to foster impactful collaborations and innovation. All four pillars have been carefully selected and developed based on the eight dimensions of the HEI Innovate framework and additional research by the authors. By focusing on these core attributes, HEIs can lead the charge in innovation, shaping the leaders of tomorrow and creating a lasting impact on society.
