MBA Programme Chairperson's Message

Welcome to Krea University’s MBA Programme at the IFMR Graduate School of Business, Sri City.

The MBA Programme at IFMR GSB is an immersive experience, serving as the final structured academic endeavour before you embark on your professional journey. The curriculum has been thoughtfully designed with profound insights to empower future business graduates to navigate the uncertainties, risks, and challenges pervasive in today’s dynamic business landscape.

As we delve into the core of our MBA Programme, we encourage you to embrace every opportunity for growth and learning. Whether it is through class discussions, group projects, or networking events, remember that each experience contributes to your journey towards becoming a well-rounded business leader. In the contemporary world, the significance of collaboration and teamwork cannot be overstated. Success in the business world often relies on our ability to work effectively with others, leveraging diverse perspectives and skills. Let us continue to foster a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute.

The faculty, staff, and administration continuously strive to mentor you and foster a conducive learning atmosphere to help you realise your aspirations. It is important to recognise that the final goal is not merely securing employment for you, but rather, empowering and equipping you with the skills to make informed decisions and discern between right and wrong.

Finally, in a rapidly evolving global landscape where cultures intersect, it is imperative to stay rooted in our core values, standards, and ethics, which have been imparted by our predecessors and business leaders. As someone said, ethics is not about the perception of righteousness but the integrity of actions guided by principles even when no one is watching. To put it simply, ‘Good ethics is good business’. – Narayana Murthy
