The Force of the 'Consummate Managers'

earth water space air fire

Bihar is not just changing, it’s reinventing itself. It is powerfully positioned not just to
participate in India's growth story but also accelerate it. Its academic foundation is now
a crucial component of the new, dynamic and global centric Bihar. International School
of Management Patna (ISM Patna) is conceiving and nurturing 'consummate managers' by
combining the very best of technical, physical and teaching infrastructure; designed globally
but adapted locally. As seamless as the formation of nature by its five core elements—fire,
water, air, earth and space. At ISM, we believe, the force of the 'consummate managers' will
overcome the gaps in Bihar's Global Awakening and Economic Empowerment.

Vision Mission
“To develop high quality management “We will impart high quality management education through
professionals and entrepreneurs who engagement of outstanding instructors and continuous research and
will contribute to the development of will create a system that nurtures ideas that will contribute towards the
Bihar and the country.” economic development of Bihar and the country”.


Chairman’s Message
It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you all to this grand initiative towards
creating a quality management institute matching national and international
standards. The idea of establishing this institute had come at a time when Bihar
started catching up the eyes of the different business houses under the forward
looking and progressive government. With the recent spurt in business activities
in this space, there is a requirement of trained managers. In the absence of any
premier business school in this region a demand supply gap has been created.
International School of Management, Patna has been established as a premier
B-school to fill this gap and contribute towards the socio-economic development
of the state.
We have engaged a very high quality faculty pool and a very advanced industry
relevant curriculum to enhance the teaching standards. To further this effort, we
have ensured that students get the best infrastructure available to help them
succeed in their endeavor.
Last but not the least; I welcome all the prospective students and
stakeholders to ISM once again!

Dean’s Message
The fast changing economic profile of India, with its emergence as one of the economic
powerhouses, has opened a plethora of new challenges in almost every domain and in
particular the management space. The stupendous growth shown by Bihar is another
positive change which has added to the increased need of dynamic management
professionals, both in India and in particular in Bihar.
Keeping this in mind, International School of Management Patna (ISM) has been established
to pursue excellence in the field of management education and promote entrepreneurship
in Bihar. ISM hopes to change the present management education scenario in this part of
the country. The first step in this direction is to provide an academic environment where
students can benefit from distinguished faculties as well from peers. ISM has drawn faculty
members from institutes like Harvard University, IIMs, IITs, and other Premier B-schools. The
second step has been the setting up of curriculum which is relevant and specifically caters
to the requirements of industries. The key reason behind opting for PGDM, rather than
university MBA, was the flexibility that we get in case of former in terms of designing the
curriculum. The third step has been setting up of quality infrastructure which can support
envisioned system of learning.
Promoting entrepreneurship is another key focus for the school. The development
of Bihar cannot be complete unless companies from Bihar establish their presence
outside the state and country. ISM has formed Business incubation centre for
promoting and supporting new ventures.
We at ISM, welcome all our prospective students and other stakeholders in
making this effort a success story.

FOUNDATION
Leadership of passion unlocks new
possibilities. At ISM, ‘passion’ evolves into
a passionate leadership that inspires both,
people and progress.

The Need for Management
Education
Today, in the fast shrinking world, effective use of
resources has become a great challenge and thus, greater
stakes are involved in every small decision. Therefore,
the precision level of every decision has to go up. Hence,
the upcoming generation must learn the approach
of management rather than just focusing upon few
principles of management. Management education
focuses on diverse areas of knowledge which empowers
the participants to take up challenges and meet them
successfully.
Focusing on the context of Bihar, where majority of the
businesses are unorganized, we find that its economy has
shown an impressive growth of 11.44% (CSO). Therefore,
it requires a pool of talented managers who can work and
contribute in the development of Bihar. At ISM, we will
ensure that students not only learn the basic principles of
Management but also learn the art of implementing these
principles in work life effectively.

Bihar has seen its own ups and
downs and the history is testimony
to it. Facing some of the turmoil
in the recent past, Bihar is at the
outset of a new era. If we talk

Why ISM?
The interesting syllogism — ‘Intellectually Sharp and Methodical’ precisely describes the academic milieu at ISM.
Faculty members at ISM are academic adventurers with their passion for all round intellectual development leading
to immense growth and inculcation of value based education. They are top professionals, with their long experience in their
respective fields, who form the backbone of ISM.
To support the process of learning, ISM has 2.5
acres state-of-the-art campus located amidst
green surroundings close to Patna. The campus
has amphitheatre classrooms and auditorium
with advanced audio-visual aids to enhance the
learning experience. The college also boasts of
a library named after noted nuclear scientist and
Ex-President Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. The library has
a collection of the most sought after books on
management and other related disciplines.
At ISM, students are treated as intelligent and
matured professionals. From time to time they
are engaged with businesses and industrial units
as well as government organizations to get the
hands-on experience of their learning. They get
exposure to real working conditions through
which they learn to get on with their job and
mature with time.

VERSATILITY
Diverse resources and situations open minds
and enable flexiblity. ISM leaders grow from a
platform for learning across diverse faculties,
theories and methods.

“With Bihar on the cusp of a new era, ISM
is bound to play a very meaningful role in
creating competent managers. While aspiring
to be truly international in quality, ISM is also
aware of the local needs. This, I think, will set it
apart from its peers.”
Prof. Amit Parakh

Infrastructure
At ISM, we feel the necessity of an excellent infrastructure in imparting
quality education. The college has the robust infrastructure as a B-school
based out in Bihar. A brief description about the infrastructure available is
as follows:

• The college is based out of a wholly owned 2.5 acres campus with fully
residential facilities planned for both boys and girls.
• The college campus is completely Wi-Fi enabled where students can
access high speed internet round the clock.

KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge is what knowledge does.
An ISM Manager practises ‘active knowledge’;
he continuously updates and evolves himself.

“I taught microeconomics to the inaugural batch of students of
ISM last summer and interacted closely with the founders of the
institute. I had a great time. The students were interested, involved
and informed and the administration was always trying to ensure
that they got the best possible education and training. ISM has the
promise to evolve into an institution of excellence that students of
Bihar so desperately need. “
Prof. Avinash Kishore

“An institute with honest intent and desire to
make all round development to its students.”
Prof. Anindra Haldar

Centre for CSR Initiatives
The idea of “Centre for CSR Initiatives” for private players in Bihar has been conceptualized in view of enhancing the
contribution of corporate in community development. The World Bank report published in various newspapers indicating
Patna as the second most suitable place for business in India, heralds entry of several new players in the region. Thus, the
corporate will have greater choice for their CSR activity in the region.
Centre for CSR Initiatives will solely function as a Research and Development support agency to CSR initiatives of private
companies in Bihar. This centre will conduct research on the performance of different programmes being run under CSR
initiatives of corporate and also, help them partner private players in identifying the potential agencies for undertaking the
activity.
Centre for CSR Initiatives will also develop programmes for NGOs on demand and provide necessary R&D support as per their
requirement. This will indeed be a step towards the capacity building of NGOs through R&D support.

19


The Entrepreneurship Incubation Centre
Our vision is not only to create a pool of efficient managers but also, to produce Entrepreneurs as well, who can lead by
example. Therefore, the Institute has a dedicated Entrepreneurship Incubation Centre, which involves the followings:
• It nurtures innovative ideas and puts highly directional efforts towards successfully executing them.
• It provides faculty guidance and facilitates feasibility studies on business ideas of the students.
• The centre facilitates seed money assistance to the successful plan so that, they can see the light of the day.

International Certification
ISM has aligned its courses with some of the industry relevant and internationally recognized certification courses like
Charted Financial Analyst (CFA), Financial Risk Management (FRM), Actuarial Sciences, etc. and the college encourages
students to take up one of these courses. Since these certifications are internationally recognized and highly acclaimed by
the industries, they prove to be of great help in fetching handsomely paid industry specific jobs. Apart from institute’s and
faculty’s help, our course curriculum has been designed in such a way that it covers most of the relevant and important topics
required to complete these courses.

Students Speak

“I am privileged to be a part of ISM. It has given me a
platform to learn and acquire management skills. It has
maintained a quality standard which will help many to
fulfill their aspiration. As a student, I have gained a lot and
feel safe and secure under its aegis.”
Zareen

“Being a student of ISM, I will say that it provides a
top class education to us through its highly qualified
faculty members. Most important thing that separates
this college from other management schools is that it
provides education with practical orientation than a
theory focus. For example, we all did a sales training in
Tata Tele Services Ltd. before the start of the Marketing
course. I don’t think I could have been able to get this
pedagogy anywhere else.”

About Patna

Gol Ghar Takht Sri Harmandir Sahib Old Fort on the Bank of Ganges

Patna, the capital of Bihar state, is located on the south bank of the river Ganga. It was founded in the 5th century
BC as Pataliputra and was the capital of Magadha. It was ruled later by the Mauryan Empire. A centre of learning, it
became the Gupta dynasty’s capital in the 4th century AD. Revived as Patna in 1541 by an Afghan ruler, it became
prosperous under the Mughal dynasty and passed to the British in 1765. Today Patna is fast emerging as an excellent
hub of academic and industrial dynamics. It is rapidly developing into a successful modern metropolis. Patna is 21st
