DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE

“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.

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.”

PGPSM CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE “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. IIM Lucknow

took the lead and launched a full-time

two-year Postgraduate Programme in

Sustainable Management (PGPSM). The

uniquely designed PGPSM curriculum

with extensive coursework, live projects,

and interaction with industry leaders with

a perfect blend of general management

skills and deep understanding of business

sustainability concepts and issues. I am

confident that PGPSM students are ready

to take any responsibility in their journey

from here. I welcome you to partner with

us on this journey.”

Prof. Ashish Aggarwal

Chairperson PGPSM, IIM Lucknow

CDS CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE “The uniquely designed PGP-SM

curriculum with extensive coursework,

live projects, and interaction with

industry leaders has transformed

the talented, bright and experienced

students through a perfect blend of

general management skills and deep

understanding of business sustainability

concepts and issues. Well qualified and

experienced faculty of IIM Lucknow

has been successful in inculcating much

sought after traits like discipline, sincerity,

dedication and compassion in these

students. I am confident that students of

PGPSM batch of 2018-20 are ready to take

any responsibility in their onward journey

from here. I welcome you to partner with

us in their journey and jointly contribute to

building sustainable societies.”

Prof. Ashish Dubey

CDS Chair, IIM Lucknow

CDS COORDINATOR’S MESSAGE “With increasing exposure of businesses

to Securities and Exchange Board of

India (SEBI) making it mandatory for

bigger businesses to include Business

Responsibility Report (BRR) as a part

of the Annual Report for top 100 listed

entities, one can clearly gauge the signal

from the financial sector and investors

for creating a pool of new business

leaders who can appropriately marry and

synergize the general managerial skills

with specialized knowledge of business

responsibility and sustainability for

building a more trustworthy business of

tomorrow. The Post Graduate Programme in

Sustainability Management, the one of its

kind programme offered by a reputed IIM

fills that void aptly and amply. I am glad to

introduce the PGPSM batch of 2018-20 and

would like to welcome you as a continued

partner in our journey of building world

class talent and jointly contribute to

building businesses and societies in the days

and years to come.”

competence and character. A unique feature of the program, the 9 months -long integrated

project provides hands on experience by means of direct collaboration with the industry and

enables students with a prior work experience of minimum two years to seamlessly transition

into their careers.

LEADERSHIP TALK SERIES

At IIM Lucknow– Noida Campus, a series of guest lectures by distinguished business leaders, policymakers, and eminent

entrepreneurs that take place throughout the year. It is a student-driven activity that presents them with a great opportunity

to engage with thought leaders and visionaries on a rich vein of subjects; varying from complex leadership and strategic

business challenges to the social impact of corporations, from success and failure stories to nation-building deliberations. It

helps to bridge the gap between the classroom learning and the real-world business problems through experts. Every session

enriches the perspective of the class on emerging trends and contemporary issues of the global business world. This section

helps to create a path between the academia and industry, through which young generations forge a connect and later become

solution providers for the worldly issues.

INTEGRATED PROJECT

The Students have a mandatory requirement of doing

an Integrated Project with the industry for 9 months

during their Second year. Integrated Project adds to

their skills and makes them holistic leaders with the

potential to be recruited as mid-level managers. Some

of the organizations with which students have worked

in the past are – E&Y (Climate Change & Sustainability),

Fortum, FICCI, GIZ, NTPC, Mahindra Susten, GHCL,

PRO, Aavin Dairy, American India Foundation (AIF), Tata

Sustainability Group, World Bank, GE, Vikram Solar,

Valluri Technology and Vedanta.

INTERNATIONAL IMMERSION 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.

"International immersion showcased the role of

community, policy, infrastructure and governance in

establishing a conducive environment for sustainable

development. This transcendental experience oriented

us towards our pursuit with a 'Glocal' perspective"

- Jayakarthikeyan E M, Batch 2015-17,

Tata Trusts

“The foreign immersion to 2 renowned universities had

exposed us to a multicultural environment & enriched our

understanding of sustainability in Scandinavian countries.

Insightful interactions with Industry representatives from

Ikea, Dong Energy and Volvo, has overwhelmed us with the

nuances of an end to end implementation of sustainability.”

– Annu Manuel, Batch 2016-18,

LIVE, LAUGH & LEARN

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 an

exhilarating enriching experience to be cherished

and valued for life.
