XLRI Admission Prospectus 2017XLRI Admission Prospectus 2017

I am delighted to introduce you to XLRI and welcome you to this esteemed institution.

XLRI was established in 1949, soon after the independence of India and joined in spirit and action the selfless patriots and great leaders of India in building the nation. It focused on training people who can shape the destiny of India with competence and dedication. XLRI continues to have the same vision – to train leaders who will excel in competence, personal values and social concern.

“Excellence and Integrity” is the motto of XLRI, derived from the Jesuit principle of “Magis” – ever greater, ever better. We try to translate excellence through academic excellence, value excellence and social excellence. This means we are not only concentrating on knowledge development, but also on personal, spiritual and social development. This is the integral formation we offer to students. This integral and value based formation should impel a person to be an innovative, competent and creative leader.

Our academic excellence is our greatest strength. The values we instil in students through effective courses, group activities and cultural events groom them to become responsible leaders. Our emphasis is to mould them into agents of change who will make a difference in the organisation through innovative ideas.

XLRI strives to meet the educational needs of various segments of students by offering a variety of management-centric programmes. Our flagship programmes include the two-year Postgraduate Programmes in Business Management, Human Resource Management, besides the full-time fifteen months General Management Programme for executives with experience. In addition, we offer three-year part-

time PGDM programme in Business Management in Jamshedpur and multiple one-year part-time Satellite Programmes. Prospective students can choose any programme according to their need and convenience.

I welcome you to Jamshedpur, the first planned city of India, the cleanest and most hospitable city. Jamshedpur offers excellent sports and recreational facilities, and sylvan environment.

You will get ample opportunity to interact with national and international leaders from every walk of life and learn the problems and prospects ahead of you and available to you. These interactions combined with your classroom inputs will help you to opt for a career you dream of.

THE GENESIS AND JOURNEy OVER 60 yEARS

Keeping true to its vision, XLRI strives to offer an education which is not just leading to a degree, but one that inspires students to respond to the unmet needs of the society.

XLRI was founded in 1949 by Fr Quinn Enright, SJ, in the Steel City, Jamshedpur, soon after Independence. The country was undergoing a political, economic and social transformation. Fr Enright visualised XLRI to be a partner in this liberation and development journey. His vision was to renew the face of the earth through XLRI. Together with Fr Bill Tome, Fr Edward McGrath and other Jesuit companions, he worked tirelessly towards translating this vision into reality.

The Jesuit Society has been guiding the activities and affairs of the institute since 1949. The forces that made it possible for XLRI to realise the vision were (1) Commitment to magis – to strive for

better, to excel; (2) Conviction through discernment – a decision making process which is not self- centered but God-centered and (3) Courageous execution of the decisions because it was God’s work. The hallmark of this culture is, not to walk on the beaten path, but to strike new routes; not to benchmark, but to be benchmarked; to be second to none, but to be the first to respond to the needs of the people and the nation. It is this enterprising and pioneering spirit that sets XLRI apart from other management schools.

XLRI has always had a global outlook. It was the first to internationalise its programmes. Renowned personalities have been a part of the institute

as leaders and teachers. The Board of Governors comprises distinguished industrialists, academicians and members of the Jamshedpur Jesuit Society.

Keeping true to its vision, XLRI strives to offer an education which is not just leading to a degree, but one that inspires students to respond to the unmet needs of the society.

The single-most characteristic that sets apart XLRI students, is magis —– the zeal to do better, never to be satisfied

with being a mediocre and aspire to excel. He/she relentlessly strives for more, for something greater and better. Instead of wishing circumstances to change and be different, magis-driven persons either make them different or make most of them. Instead of waiting for golden opportunities to come along, they turn all that is in hand into gold. Magis should be reflected in every Xler in three areas (a) Academic excellence – learning not for grades but for knowledge and wisdom. A genuine thirst for knowledge, questioning the status

quo for meaning and wisdom in life; (b) Values — imbibe and stand for ethical and social values, even in the midst of squalor, corruption, opposition and above all human loneliness and (c) Social concern for people — to be at the service of the needy. Integrity should permeate all the three aspects, one’s thoughts, feelings and actions.

During the initial years of its growth, XLRI developed and organised several management courses for trade unions. In 1953, a two-year, day programme in Industrial Relations and Welfare was started which has been re-christened to Human Resource Management. Since then, XLRI has added many more academic programmes and has expanded its infrastructure to meet the growing demand. A three-year, evening programme in Business Management was started in 1965, while the two-year, full-time programme in Business Management was launched in 1968. In responding to the demand of the corporate and public sector, a one-year General Management Programme for working executives was launched in 1997. To disseminate quality management education to executives working in different cities, the Virtual Interactive Learning (VIL) arm of XLRI offers a portfolio of 12-month consolidated programmes in different functional areas of management. A Postgraduate Certificate in Business Management was started in 2002 and Postgraduate Certificate in Human Resource Management in 2003.

Knowledge and continuous learning is the mainstay amongst the best organizations of today. In order to satisfy this thirst for knowledge and to become a learning organization, XLRI has evolved a fifteen months consolidated programme in general management with the objectives of providing the practicing managers a substantial exposure to theoretical foundations in management as well as to provide them a holistic perspective of business in such a way that they are not only equipped with tools and techniques to perform their task effectively but also to shoulder greater responsibilities in the future as they move up the hierarchy.

The Institute awards the PostgraduateDiplomainManagement [GeneralManagement] to the participants who successfully complete all the requirements of this programme.

CurriculamThe AICTE recognized 15 months programme currently consists of Core and Optional/Elective courses specially designed for fast track executives with work experience. They provide the essentials of management education with the flexibility of individual exploration in their chosen area of interest. The entire programme spans for about 780 minimum and 880 maximum contact hours in class. The programme encourages, supports and provides enough scope to the participants for self study.

The programme starts with induction for initiating the participants with XLRI’s culture and refreshing the fundamentals for better appreciation of the courses to follow.

Thereafter the participants undergo the core courses as building blocks essential

for management education. Currently the core courses are categorized into seven major areas, Finance, Marketing, Production, Operations and Decision Sciences, Information Systems, Human Resource Management, Organizational Behaviour, Economics and Strategic Management, providing not only the essentials of management but also the core functional skills. The core course curriculum also includes Soft Skills workshop, Industry Interfaces and Integrated courses.

Successful completion of the core courses paves the way for the elective courses, chosen by the participants, helping them to further their areas of interest. Our effort has always been to provide a wide range of electives with a cutting edge focus in areas of relevance in grooming tomorrow’s business leaders. These are organized into six functional areas of Finance, Marketing, Production, Operations and Decision science, Human Resource Management, Information Systems, Economics and Strategic Management. Students are allowed to choose electives from a list of offered electives. A minimum number of participants should opt for a specific elective to be offered.

The programme and the courses, both core and optional, are continuously restructured to make them contemporary to the changing scenario in management education.

Field-Based TrainingIt is compulsory for all students to undergo three-month field based training after completing the 12 months campus component. Majority of GMP students would join different companies after completing the academic requirements. During the first three months in those companies, the students are required to do a project work and obtain a satisfactory certificate from the company. Rest of the students are allowed to fulfill the requirements by undergoing a project work under the guidance of a faculty mentor. A student will be eligible for the diploma only after obtaining the successful completion certificate of the three-month field based training.

Academic Evaluation SystemThe Institute’s evaluation system is designed to continually assess the students’ performance in relation to the required standards of academic achievement. Apart from examinations, a student’s performance is assessed on the basis of class participation, preparation of periodic assignments, mid-term tests and quizzes.

CORPORATE PROGRAMMES

Management Development Programmes (MDPs)XLRI has been a pioneer in developing and offering short duration Management Development Programmes (MDPs) with a four decade enviable standing in the committee of B-schools in India. These MDPs have been designed keeping in view the ever changing demands on business/professional executives. The programme content of even the standard MDPs is constantly reviewed and changes are made on a continuous basis. The objective of the MDPs is to help improve management systems and practices in India and other countries in South Asian Region by providing relevant training to the executives of different sectors of the economy operating at different levels in the organisational hierarchy. The participants are equipped with the latest tools, techniques and skills spanning different streams of management such as General Management, Human Resources, Organizational Behaviour, Marketing, Finance, Operations Management, Information Systems, Strategic Management and Industrial Relations.

A majority of these programmes are held in the Jamshedpur campus of XLRI, while a few of them are held at prominent cities in the country. The programmes conducted at XLRI are residential. The participants are housed in a modern complex of comfortable air-conditioned twin-sharing rooms at the MDP residence located in the campus. The MDP residence has facilities to accommodate about 110 executives with a separate kitchen, lounge and dining facilities. The calm, serene, academic ambience of the campus and its lush green surroundings are highly conducive to study, reflect and learn. Round-the-clock internet facility is available on campus network based

on Gigabit Ethernet structured cabling through high-speed bandwidth. The air-conditioned computer lab with internet connections provide opportunities for the participants to stay connected with the business world at large.

In-Company Training ProgrammesXLRI accepts requests from organisations for conducting customised training programmes for their executives at different levels, and offers unique programmes to suit the business and developmental needs of client organisations. Standard Modules from regular MDPs are also combined and adapted, wherever necessary, to suit the requirements of client organisations.

The duration of these programmes ranges from two days to one month depending upon the variety, magnitude and complexity of topics covered. While some of these are conducted at the institute, there are also many held in the premises of the client organisations. A total of 141 In-company Training Programmes were conducted during the year 2015-16, covering some 55 different topics from different Functional Areas, and a little over 2948 Executives from different Corporate Houses participated in these Programmes in India and Abroad.

Virtual Customised In-company ProgrammesXLRI also offers virtual customised training programmes for corporate audience. The object of such programmes is to provide corporate India with a cost effective multiple location option for large-scale training. This also eliminates travel cost and helps save time especially for organisations with a large sales forces

and multi-locational operations.

Consultancy ServicesXLRI provides consultancy services to public and private sector organisations and international bodies. Consultancy services cover a wide range — from preparation of feasibility reports and project appraisals to Tax Planning, Managing Personal Problems, Human Resource Planning, HR Policy, Organisational Restructuring, Organisational Development Interventions, Market Researches and Development of Effective Marketing Strategies. Over the years, XLRI has worked extensively with a wide variety of clients, including multi-national companies, private and public sector companies, growth stage companies. Our expertise and innovative business strategies have helped businesses and eliminate inefficiencies, grow membership bases, create new products, and much more. We are committed to, looking further, and providing unparalleled value for our clients.

Executive CoachingExecutive coaching is commonplace in leadership development and as a transition tool the world over. However executive coaching is still a developing field. It is seen as a viable lever in the development of high potentials and in the retention of top talent. XLRI believes that executive coaching is most successful as a three-way partnership among coach, executive, and the executive’s organisation.

The practice of executive coaching is continually evolving and expanding and as an institution, we plan to incorporate new perspectives from varied disciplines, specialties and backgrounds. The inter-disciplinary nature of executive coaching is a big challenge, but as an institution known for its academic resources and distinguished faculty we

32

can collectively go even beyond our Competency Model: psychology, organisation development, business, and coaching. Organisations that have used XLRI’s Executive Coaching Model have reported that they would actually increase use of executive coaching in the coming years. With the increasing need for executive coaching and its use and application, we hope to address the issues arising out of this developing interdisciplinary, professional field for the mutual benefit of leaders, organizations, and the people and societies they serve.

Research and Innovation CellThe aim of the XLRI’s Research and Innovation Cell is to bridge the gap between in the industry and academia. Over the years long term associations and partnerships have been forged with Corporate Houses to foster a symbiotic environment where researchers have the opportunity to work with real time issues faced by organizations. These organizations in turn get pragmatic, effective and cost effective business solutions from the distinguished faculty and bright, savvy and technology driven researchers and academic resources of XLRI.

The incubation cells help develop capability to achieve short- and long-term organizational goals and the interactions in these partnerships provide the academic community with data driven multiple perspectives and relevant and current industry resources. The associations and partnerships are most long term which is evident in the confidentiality and mutual trust.

CAMPUS LIFE AT XLRI

38

Life at XL is a vibrant blend of class lectures, study sessions, management fests and competitive sports meets. The unique XL culture springs from its closely knit student community. An environment of caring and sharing is what makes this B-school different. Despite a highly competitive spirit amongst students to excel academically, the atmosphere outside the classroom is one of great comradeships. A fresher is greeted with warmth and is made a part of the student fraternity. An intense academic rigour and an incredible phenomenon called the XL culture together make up for a hectic yet heady concoction of work and play. As all programmes are residential, the seniors and juniors share an amicable relation. It is hence no surprise that XLRI has the most extensive alumni network among all Indian B-schools.

Team work is stressed throughout your life at XL. In fact the environment of bitter rivalry among students that traditionally prevails in B-schools has been removed through conscious efforts by the institute. Instead, an atmosphere of collaboration and cooperation has been carefully nurtured over the years and this makes XLers excellent team players and leaders in every organisation that they become a part of.

In addition to this, XLRI lays great emphasis on ethics and on social responsibility.. The institute is highly regarded in the corporate world for its efforts to instill these qualities in tomorrow’s business leaders. Built into the curriculum are novel concepts like the Village Exposure Programme that develop social awareness by taking every student back to their roots.

For an Xler there is something happening at XL all the time. There are conferences, seminars, guest lectures and workshops where a student is exposed to diverse views, opinions and ideas of many of the greatest minds in the world of business. Yet, a good part of the XL life will not just be academic. There is the marketing extravaganza – MAXI fair, the annual management fest; Ensemble and XL-IIMC sports meet.

A student, irrespective of his/her stream, always finds an opportunity to explore every interest. Innovation is religion at XL and a little initiative can take you a long way.

The formal and informal committees at XLRI take full advantage of this freedom and involve the XLers in numerous activities that helps one to experiment and explore new management avenues.
