I found three primary reasons for this success. The students at XIMB have a strong fundamental understanding of business and its applications not only in theory but in practice. Secondly, they are industry-ready professionals with enormous potential for creativity and innovation. Thirdly, they are “humane managers”, people who manage with a heart for the society and uphold values and ethics which inspires our society to scale greater heights of excellence and prosperity. In the past one year I have had the opportunity to interact with a few recruiters. I found a common feedback, “XIMB students inspire teamwork, excel in performance, are target oriented and have strong ethical standards.” As the Director of this institute, it gives me immense pleasure to know that the talent which graduates from XIMB is not greed driven but value driven. It adds tremendous vitality to the organizations and ensures that this world becomes a better place to live in. It is with great pleasure I welcome you to Xuberance 2010. I am sure that the bright young students at XIMB would deeply impress you with their vision for tomorrow, their talent for today and their ethics forever. Fr.
