With experience we reach a position where we start managing teams, but many times the way of management may not be the right way. This is what made me look out for opportunities where I could sharpen my management skills, understand the different aspects and the best practices of leading teams. I was looking out for a program that I could pursue along with work but without compromise on quality. After months of research, the only name that stood out was SIBM Executive MBA program. Now after completion of the program I feel very fortunate that I was able to be a part of this prestigious institute.
A serene learning environment, creative pedagogy, a highly motivated and helpful staff and an extremely experienced resident and visiting faculty is what makes SIBM Executive MBA a standout program. Here you get opportunities to question, debate, put up various aspects on a topic and get answers, suggestions and advice from industry experts. This program has been a great help for me to widen my vision and look at situations from a variety of angles. It has helped me mature in not just my professional life but also in my personal life.

As I started my professional journey it was painful for me to part ways with academics – something I truly enjoy and adore. Finally, it was June 2019, when I decided that I am going to take up a professional course. But then, what about job? ..and that’s where I learnt about this excellent MBA Executive programme at Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, Pune. “Learning + Earning, Wow! that’s a great combination”, I thought. Since then, there has been no looking back. At SIBM, the thirst that I had for knowledge and learning was quenched. The well-trained faculty, the peer-learning opportunity and thoughtfully designed courses are all the factors that transformed my professional journey. While gaining a rich industry experience of 11+ years, its often required to weed-out some learnings. Executive MBA programme is that, very, plethora of knowledge which not just refreshes our old-school concepts but also adds to the repository and many a times encourages to even unlearn. The design of the course over the semesters is such that, it will help you gain clarity of most industry jargons, decide upon what is it that interests you and get you back to ethics and moral values (Thanks to the well tutored course of Indian Ethos & Values for Management). All in all, I am glad that I am a part of the SIBM, Pune family.

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. Program has helped me to become a better professional at my workplace & it has taken my career to new height.

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. 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.

After being in the leadership role for few years, I was always feeling like I am missing the mentorship which can help me grow in my career. 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 I 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. Now, that I have learned various management subjects, I am able to understand bigger picture, can easily connect the dots & able to drive bigger impacts. 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.
