C M Y K C M Y K From the Group Director's Desk Market volatility, rapid innovations, and geopolitical strife are fuelling a demand for business professionals who can think globally and compete strategically. The latest case in point being the demonetisation by the Government. The competitive realities of global competition and technological change have dramatically raised the bar on what takes to create and maintain a competitive advantage. Navigating today's complex business world requires vision, confidence and strategies that give tangible business results. At WeSchool, our efforts have been towards nurturing our students not just as managers but as global citizen leaders; who look beyond themselves and contribute towards their organization & society as well. To this end, WeSchool has introduced the Global Citizen Leader program (GCL) in collaboration with Centre for Creative Leadership, USA. This has featured in the Stanford Social Innovation Review in February 2014 in the article titled “Educating a New Generation of Entrepreneurial Leaders”. Leadership, Innovation & Design thinking are part of WeSchool's philosophical framework. Advisory Boards help us continually improve our curriculum and spawn new programs meeting specific needs of emerging markets and businesses. WeSchool's Innovation Board comprises of stalwarts like Dr. R. A. Mashelkar (Chairman, National Innovation Foundation), Mr. Harsh Mariwala (Chairman & Managing Director, Marico), Mr. Kishore Biyani (Group CEO, Future Group), Mr. Rana Kapoor (Founder, Managing Director & CEO, Yes Bank), Mr. Dan Buchner (VP, Peter Lougheed Leadership Institute, The Banff Centre, Canada), Mr. Srini Srinivasan (CEO of LUMIUM and member of prestigious Executive Board of ICSID), and Prof. Dr. Ramesh Raskar (Associate Professor, MIT Media Lab), to name a few. Along with its partners, WeSchool has undertaken several path breaking initiatives like Med4Dev India-Israel Affordable Healthcare Hackathon with Pears Program for Global Innovation, MIT Media Lab-WeSchool Design Innovation Workshop, InterDesign Workshop with International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (ICSID), India Sweden Innovation Accelerator (ISIA) -a platform for Swedish companies to work with academia to develop business strategies relevant to Indian markets, ReDx 2015 - MIT Media Lab's Health Technology Camp took potential high impact ideas/solutions sourced from health researchers & doctors to address critical healthcare issues in India & Kumbhathon in Nashik with MIT and TCS which combines identification of challenges, discussions with stakeholders, prototyping and customer analysis for multiple corporate and entrepreneurial ventures. As part of WeSchool's core value of 'We Link and Care' and keeping in mind our responsibility towards our nation and to give back to the local ecosystem; WeSchool along with partner institutes of Ruia & Podar College have adopted the ' Matunga' railway station. Students' global & rural exposures and opportunity to engage in several projects and initiatives such as D-Magics, GRLI, SIFE, Udaan and Munijan have sensitized them to their role as an individual to make a difference to the organization they would be working for. WeSchool's association with several leading International Universities has ensured student & faculty exchange and internship programs. Over the course of the program, your fellow students become trusted colleagues and in many cases, lifelong friends. I invite you to embark on your path to academic and professional excellence with us at our sprawling campuses in Mumbai and Bengaluru which will truly enhance your intellectual and personal growth. We promise to equip you with inventive techniques and tools which will transform you into Global Citizen Leaders in organizations of today and tomorrow.
