When I look back at myself 2.5 years back, I see a drastic difference. A sense of business that I could develop and the confidence that the course has instilled in me is phenomenal. I have been a marketer by heart, mind and soul, and this course helped me in polishing my skills to an extent where I could take the decision of starting my own digital marketing agency. I knew about digital marketing, but this MBA Executive course exposed me to a plethora of subjects and in-depth knowledge that I needed to be a successful entrepreneur. The faculty members are experienced and have immensely rich knowledge of market . The examples shared in the lectures are recent and fit perfectly in the current market scenarios. The course helped me in developing sharper business skills and a 360 degree know-how of the subjects. The course is well designed and ensures dedicated semesters for specialisation. As the semesters proceed, a higher version of the previously taught subjects are introduced which ensures that we remain in touch with the basics while simultaneously proceeding towards the in-depth knowledge of the subjects. Overall, I feel immensely proud in saying that joining this course was one of the best decisions of my life and each minute invested has been worthwhile!

Pune is known as Oxford of East, which always inspired me to take my education to next level, before I leave Pune in search of better Job opportunity, as I was a North Indian. This began my search for a College from where I can do my Executive MBA and it ended with SIBM Executive MBA Program. I knew from then to till date that it could have been nothing better than this! Symbiosis is the best Executive MBA option available in Pune & my 2.5 years was testimony of same where we got opportunities to learn from Best in Class, internal & external faculties, real life examples, case studies & state of art Labs coupled with beautiful campus & class mates with diverse experience & with an average experience of more than 6 years and some of them at very senior positions in MNCs across Pune. This rich learning experience helped me shape my career & today I find myself a more knowledgeable person with good understanding of business management.

It was the right time for me to get into Executive MBA while I was working as a business analyst in HSBC. As SIBM was offering weekend program which perfectly suited my needs, I was very happy to get enrolled. Over the span of 2.5 years, SIBM uplifted my knowledge and skill sets in various areas which helped me to grow professionally and personally. The syllabus was very well distributed across all the semesters which gave a lot of comfort in learning various subjects.Executive_testimonial Subjects that interested me the most were marketing, business strategy, business communication, accounting and finance, project management and operations. And all the credit for this goes to the faculties of SIBM. The faculties on the campus were very friendly and came with lot of industry experience to impart best in class knowledge to their students. I myself being a full-time entrepreneur now, when I talk with business people, HRs of organisations and CA or CS, I can easily relate to what they talk about because I learned that language and enough depth in those subjects during my course in SIBM. Overall, I found the course is very well organized and a highly recommended for working professionals to sharpen their business skills and open their mind to something new which they have not explored yet. Thank You SIBM and lots of GRATITUDE to all the teachers.

I was in constant dilemma like situations whether the way I managed, was it right? Constantly, I was doubting the correctness of the decisions that I was taking. I really needed a 'Guru' to coach me. That’s where IExecutive_testimonial thought of going back to university and hence enrolled in MBA Executive program from SIBM, Pune. This is one of the reputed institutes in India, with a team of knowledgeable & experienced Professors. The diversified course offerings helped me a lot! The journey was full of adventure. However, I could sail through because of the kind- hearted Professors.

I am more empathetic to my team as well as to our customers. The business strategies are better and I am more confident about the decisions & proposals that I am suggesting. They are turning out to be more positive. Overall, I am benefiting from this course. I am really thankful to all the Professors and staff for being so helpful during our course.
