Xplore, Xperience and Xcel
 There are certain qualities in individuals which are inherent while others
   are imbibed. These qualities are not apparent from outside. But on
      examining the fathomless intellect of individuals, one can find a wealth
        of wisdom, which is reflected in their actions, intellect and calibre in
           their working environment. These qualities set apart the extraordinary
             from the ordinary. XLRI selects such extraordinary individuals and
                 inculcates in them a unique set of skills, knowledge and experience.

Message from the
Director
XLRI is celebrating its Diamond Jubilee this year – 60 years of
relentless and committed service to the nation. We recall with
pride the finest corporate leaders we have moulded for more than
half a century. Being one of the pioneers in the field of
management education, XLRI was also the first to start the one-
year General Management Programme in the year 1997. Since
then this programme has consistently produced outstanding
professionals true to the standards of XLRI.


The students are executives who have at least five years of
experience. This backdrop together with focussed lectures in the
classroom, interaction with the faculty, sharpening of
competencies and skills – all combine to produce a world class
manager who is ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.


The batch of 2010 is unique – in that it is a blend of young and
spirited executives who have the rich experience of industry, and
yet are eager to groom themselves further in the intellectual
realms of knowledge and learning. The concepts, theories and
practices in management, have enriched them further as they
prepare to join the corporate world. XLRI has groomed them into
managers of excellence who are bound to make a significant
contribution to the organizations that recruit them. These are
managers who will “make a difference.”


I am proud to present the batch of 2010. Give them the
opportunity they deserve. They will be assets to your organization.

Message from the
 Chairperson
          GMP
Management graduates in India lack substantial industry experience
prior to their management education, making their education highly
theoretical in nature. Criticism often encountered was that the
graduates lacked practical insights and needed experience before
they reached decision making roles in different functional domains.


In response to this challenge, we conceptualized the 'General
Management Program' which imparts theoretical knowledge and
strategic skills to practising managers with substantial experience in
their industries. This program is aimed to groom managers, to
quickly shoulder greater responsibilities, possess deeper insights and
be potential candidates for leadership positions. To augment the
process of building world class leaders, part of the course is a three
week international immersion programme; where the students visit
collaborating foreign universities (e.g. Darden School of Business,
AIM Manila etc) attend classes, execute projects for organisations in
different countries. Customized for one year full time residential
program, the pedagogy has been refined to maximize peer to peer
learning and to take students to leading edge in their areas of
interest.


I take immense pleasure to introduce to you a new breed of
managers, the GMP batch of 2009 – 2010, selected through a
stringent admission process to ensure that we train people with the
right attitude and focus on continuous self development. I welcome
you to come and interact with this highly motivated and persevering
group of individuals.

Message from the
Chairperson
       Placement
XLRI is a pioneer in the field of management education in India. It
has been one of the first to develop courses for working and
experienced executives apart from the regular post graduation
program. We have strived to continuously improve our offerings
and have consistently revised the curriculum to meet the needs of
the Industry.


The current batch comes from a wide range of sectors and
backgrounds. The program provides them the required inputs to
acquire new knowledge and enhances their existing skills, thereby,
enabling them to shoulder greater responsibilities in the future.


The Placement Program of the GMP batch has continually been
well received by the industry. In the past, the participating
companies have come from many sectors and have offered a wide
variety of roles. The diversity of the group provides an opportunity

  GMP Learning Curve



Drawing its roots from the 60 year old heritage of XLRI, the General Management Program (GMP) is designed as a program
for visionary pragmatists, for hands–on thinkers, for people who dream of changing the world and have the passion to make it
happen in any kind of an environment. The program is designed to find the leader in a person and to help develop a strong
base for one's management skills, which will help one overcome any obstacle in one's career.
Some of the features of the programme are as follows:
  • Rigorous Curriculum: Students of GMP are updated with the latest practices and trends in management education with
the flexibility to explore different areas of specialization. Having a residential faculty, staying in close proximity with the
Industrial happenings thereby maximizes the student potential.
  • Pedagogy: Teaching methods include case studies, readings, group projects, and independent field work. Special emphasis is
given to team-based learning, in addition to individual efforts in order to help students become more effective both as a team
player and as a leader.
  • Strategic Decision Making through Capstone®: Courses include special focus on Capstone® based strategic
business simulations designed to teach strategy, as well as advanced business finance, cross functional alignment, competitive
analysis and the selection of tactics to build a successful, focused organization.
  • Learning outside the classrooms: A significant part of the learning experience in GMP is learning outside the
classrooms via cross-cultural interactions through international projects, team building and adventure trips, and village
exposure programmes. These programmes focus on bringing the best out of the students in all kinds of practical situations.
  • Peer Learning: The Student Clubs and Industry focus groups organize a large number of events that foster and build
the leadership potential and industrial knowledge in each participant.
  • Entrepreneurship: In addition to this, there is a big focus on entrepreneurial learning not just by finding solutions to
business problems but also by innovating beyond the general horizon. This is done through simulation software, focus groups
and a focused entrepreneurship development cell.                                                                                  13

Feedback From Faculty

“The current batch of GMP at XLRI is a very select group of accomplished professionals from a variety of
reputed companies. With the additional qualification they have now acquired through this intensive 1-year
full-time residential program, they are prime candidates to take on more challenging roles and
responsibilities in the corporate world. Having taught them, I have witnessed from a close range their
personal growth and maturity. I am confident they will meet, and even surpass, the expectations of their
potential employers."
Prof. Jitendra Singh - Faculty: Organizational Behaviour
PGDBM (XLRI), Ph.D. (Wharton)



The rich and diverse experience of the students of the GMP batch makes the class discussion in general
very interesting and meaningful. Specifically in the Marketing course, I taught for the current batch of
GMP students, the live examples they provided enhanced the learning of the course. Overall I am sure
the batch would be able to integrate the concepts to their expereince and make more effective decisions
as managers.

I wish them all the best for a successful career.

XLRI, a the pioneer in offering 1-year full time General management programme, imparts Industry and
market relevant skills and capabilities to a rich mix of talented executives. The uniqueness of GMP course
is that equips the participants with rigour backed with agility and responsiveness. The students are trained
to stay agile and responsive to business, customer and stakeholder needs. The GMP class of 2010 is well-
positioned to take on leadership roles and address challenges in the dynamic corporate world.
Prof. Madhukar Shukla - Faculty: Organizational Behaviour
M.A. (Psychology, Lucknow), Ph.D. (IIT, Kanpur)



GMP, XLRI's one-year programme for participants with prior work-experience, has evolved- over the
years- into a mature programme with an enviable value proposition. A rigorous academic programme,
an international immersion and high quality peer learning ensures that every GMPian develops
exceptional qualities and adds value in every kind of business scenario. The batch of 2009-10 is a special
batch: they are individuals who have chosen to take the bold step of investing time and money in
enriching their knowledge base during a period in which most others have opted to try and retain the
jobs they have. This is what gets reflected in the attitude of the 2009-10 GMP batch: a preparedness to
face the dynamic uncertainties of a changing environment; a quiet confidence; a belief in themselves.
I am sure you too will identify these traits when you meet them.

From Paris to Patamada – the world is an Oyster for GMPians
In the words of Thomas Friedman the world is getting flatter by the day. In order to gain a 360 degree
global perspective, students of GMP also undergo a village exposure program to understand the potential
at the bottom of the pyramid. Students travel to the remotest villages of Jharkhand and West Bengal to
understand the needs of the local people and provide solutions to the their problems.

    Message from the Director XLRIis celebrating its Diamond Jubilee this year – 60 years of relentless and committed service to the nation. We recall with pride the finest corporate leaders we have moulded for more than half a century. Being one of the pioneers in the field of management education, XLRI was also the first to start the one- year General Management Programme in the year 1997. Since then this programme has consistently produced outstanding professionals true to the standards of XLRI. The students are executives who have at least five years of experience. This backdrop together with focussed lectures in the classroom, interaction with the faculty, sharpening of competencies and skills – all combine to produce a world class manager who is ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow. The batch of 2010 is unique – in that it is a blend of young and spirited executives who have the rich experience of industry, and yet are eager to groom themselves further in the intellectual realms of knowledge and learning. The concepts, theories and practices in management, have enriched them further as they prepare to join the corporate world. XLRI has groomed them into managers of excellence who are bound to make a significant contribution to the organizations that recruit them. These are managers who will “make a difference.” I am proud to present the batch of 2010. Give them the opportunity they deserve. They will be assets to your organization. E. Abraham, S.J. Director XLRI JAMSHEDPUR 05

    Message from the Chairperson GMP Management graduates in India lack substantial industry experience prior to their management education, making their education highly theoretical in nature. Criticism often encountered was that the graduates lacked practical insights and needed experience before they reached decision making roles in different functional domains. In response to this challenge, we conceptualized the 'General Management Program' which imparts theoretical knowledge and strategic skills to practising managers with substantial experience in their industries. This program is aimed to groom managers, to quickly shoulder greater responsibilities, possess deeper insights and be potential candidates for leadership positions. To augment the process of building world class leaders, part of the course is a three week international immersion programme; where the students visit collaborating foreign universities (e.g. Darden School of Business, AIM Manila etc) attend classes, execute projects for organisations in different countries. Customized for one year full time residential program, the pedagogy has been refined to maximize peer to peer learning and to take students to leading edge in their areas of interest. I take immense pleasure to introduce to you a new breed of managers, the GMP batch of 2009 – 2010, selected through a stringent admission process to ensure that we train people with the right attitude and focus on continuous self development. I welcome you to come and interact with this highly motivated and persevering group of individuals. Prof. Pranabesh Ray Chairperson, GMP Programme XLRI JAMSHEDPUR

With the additional qualification they have now acquired through this intensive 1-year full-time residential program, they are prime candidates to take on more challenging roles and responsibilities in the corporate world. Having taught them, I have witnessed from a close range their personal growth and maturity. I am confident they will meet, and even surpass, the expectations of their potential employers." Prof. Jitendra Singh - Faculty: Organizational Behaviour PGDBM (XLRI), Ph.D. (Wharton) The rich and diverse experience of the students of the GMP batch makes the class discussion in general very interesting and meaningful. Specifically in the Marketing course, I taught for the current batch of GMP students, the live examples they provided enhanced the learning of the course. Overall I am sure the batch would be able to integrate the concepts to their expereince and make more effective decisions as managers. I wish them all the best for a successful career. Prof. Pingali Venugopal - Faculty: Marketing Postgraduate & Fellow (IIMA) XLRI, a the pioneer in offering 1-year full time General management programme, imparts Industry and market relevant skills and capabilities to a rich mix of talented executives. The uniqueness of GMP course is that equips the participants with rigour backed with agility and responsiveness. The students are trained to stay agile and responsive to business, customer and stakeholder needs. The GMP class of 2010 is well- positioned to take on leadership roles and address challenges in the dynamic corporate world. Prof. Madhukar Shukla - Faculty: Organizational Behaviour M.A. (Psychology, Lucknow), Ph.D. (IIT, Kanpur) GMP, XLRI's one-year programme for participants with prior work-experience, has evolved- over the years- into a mature programme with an enviable value proposition. A rigorous academic programme, an international immersion and high quality peer learning ensures that every GMPian develops exceptional qualities and adds value in every kind of business scenario. The batch of 2009-10 is a special batch: they are individuals who have chosen to take the bold step of investing time and money in enriching their knowledge base during a period in which most others have opted to try and retain the jobs they have. This is what gets reflected in the attitude of the 2009-10 GMP batch: a preparedness to face the dynamic uncertainties of a changing environment; a quiet confidence; a belief in themselves. I am sure you too will identify these traits when you meet them. Prof. Uday Damodaran - Faculty: Finance B.Sc. (Physics) Kerala, M.Stat.(SQC&OR) ISI Delhi, Fellow (IIMB)
