“The dynamics of global and national businesses are increasingly being shaped by sustainability concerns. In the last two decades, as societies and businesses have become more aware about environmental degradation and climate change, more emphasis is being put on understanding of associated socio-economic implications and sustainable development, which are vital for businesses and societies alike. Social, economic and environmental sustainability have emerged on the forefront of business strategy and businesses are increasingly aligning their vision so as to be consistent with the global vision as well as vision of the geographies in which they are present. The changed business environment and evolving domestic and global policies and regulations are forcing companies to deal with a wide range of stakeholders that have dynamically evolving, and often conflicting demands from business.

DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE

As companies try to understand, evaluate and take action on issues that can affect the triple bottom line, they are now seeking qualified individuals who understand the integrated societal, environmental and business concepts of sustainability. To cater to this need of business and society, IIM Lucknow has launched a two-year full-time post graduate programme in sustainable management (PGPSM) from 2015. PGPSM is the first two-year programme offered from Noida Campus of IIM Lucknow. Needless to say, the selection criteria and the academic curriculum remain as robust and rigorous as our other post graduate programmes.

It gives me immense pleasure and pride to present our second batch of PGPSM. I cordially welcome you to participate in the placement process.”

“IIM Lucknow continuously strives to align the curriculum of existing academic programmes, keeping in view the ever-increasing level of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity of the business environment. Due to increase awareness in the society about environmental degradation, climate change, and socio-economic implications of unprecedented corporate power, nation states have forced businesses to mould their business strategies to align with national and global Sustainable Development Goals.

– Annu Manuel, Batch 2016-18, Fortum

The concept of sustainability mandates a 'Glocal' perspective which includes an in depth understanding of localized risks and challenges as well as a unified global strategy to strive towards holistic development. The international immersion module sensitizes the participants towards the best practices and robust administrative structures which exist in countries like Sweden and Denmark which are considered pioneers of sustainable development. A two-week sojourn in world renowned institutions like Linne University, Maastricht school of management is aimed at enriching the experience of a meaningful immersion.

The rigorous academic schedule is highly complimented with a conscious and deliberate industry interaction with experts from organizations such as IKEA of Sweden, Dong Energy, Rockwool and Volvo, Electrolux which are Industry benchmarks for sustainability in their respective sectors. Moreover, the participants actively engage with local municipal bodies and citizen groups who are often instrumental in bringing about behavioral changes in society towards sustainable living. The programme also creates a platform for cultural exchange among participants and the local community.

28 | IIM Lucknow

With the alarm clock blaring we wake up with a start, one glance at the clock and it’s evident that it’s time to dash. It’s a race against time the journey from room to the mess, grab a quick paratha or slice of bread butter and jostling through academic block corridors just to make it in time before professor begins with roll call for 8.45 AM class.

And hence commences a long day of healthy discussions via case studies, presentations and role-plays. The 90 mins classes are well structured encompassing both theoretical and practical aspects of the curriculum keeping the students on their toes and compelling them to use their grey cells all the time and all the late-night discussions preparing for the case studies are well paid off with all gaining valuable insights from the diverse experience of the batch. But all work and no play make Jack a dull boy- and we PGPSMites believe that to the core. After grueling sessions that make our minds work all day long, it’s time to unwind and put our bodies to work on the basketball court, tennis court, volleyball court or football field. The entire batch is out and sweating their stress out over games that can be as competitive as a world cup final! A quick snack and tea and everyone is back to rooms for preparing the assignments, projects and surprise quizzes (yes, they exist!). Apart from these routine tasks, there are preparations for various events that pushes everyone to use their organizing skills and time management skills to the best.

Hostel life is vibrant with energy; friendships forged that would last a lifetime and birthday Celebrations that make you feel like a celebrity with so many people swarming over to wish you and smother with cake!

Amidst all the strenuous deadlines and sleep deprived nights life at IIM Lucknow Noida Campus is a roller coaster ride where every person adds their own flavor to the place and makes it anexhilarating enriching experience to be cherished and valued for life.
