Indore gears up to play host to the who’s who of the world of management. The occasion is the official flag-off of central India’s most internationally calibrated management institute – The PROTON business school.
The Chief Mentor of PROTON business school (and Founder of PT education group), Mr. Sandeep Manudhane threw light on this in a special correspondent meet. Among many things at Proton, Mr. Manudhane specially talked about the core structure of this revolutionary B-school. The school’s advisory body, he said, is being served by a pool of leading management experts from India and abroad, most notable of whom is Mr. Stanley Moss. Truly developing the idea that seeds of greatness lie latent in most of us, the Proton family is intently working to create modules that help these very seeds flower.
Mr. Stanley is a respected name in the field of marketing and brand management. He’s a celebrated marketing guru and brand philosopher. He brings to fore more than 30 years of rich experience, and is currently the member of The Medinge Group’s Board of Directors. Mr. Stanley believes that quality education incorporating creativity has the power to mould students into civilized and responsible citizens besides helping them in their careers. This philosophy forms the core of the ethos of the PROTON business school where students can grow beyond the realms of bookish facts. Here they can experience the learning from the international faculty as well as appreciate the practical side of knowledge, as a preemptive preparation to live in a world which demands fresh ideas constantly. The aim of PROTON business school is to prepare management experts who can help the country mark its distinct presence in the 21 century’s corporate world.
Mr. Manudhane further elaborated that the top team of PROTON business school also includes Dr. Manas Fuloria who is an expert in the field of Operations Management. He is also a high profile advisor for many Fortune 500 companies. Dr. Fuloria has studied from distinguished institutes like IIT Delhi and Stanford University, USA. At PROTON business school he will extend his services as Director – Strategic Initiatives. Dr. Fuloria told this correspondent that he leverages all his international experience to churn out world-class managers for the future. His excitement was palpable, and his happiness infectious!
Another gem in Proton’s crown, Mr. Chand Narayan holds the post of Director – Leadership and Corporate Initiatives at PROTON business school. Mr. Manudhane said that Mr. Chand is among the most prominent human resource specialists in the country and has 12 years of experience in HR, Marketing, Sales and Engineering with leading corporations like GE, TV18 network, Satyam etc. He pursued his degree from XLRI Jamshedpur, and his area of work interest is transformational human resource management. He has been a key figure in the field of attrition management and workforce happiness maximization, for a long time. His interests range from philosophy to humanism in action.
The crack team of gold-medallists from the IIM Ahmedabad Mr. Debashish Chakravarty and his team comprising Mr. Bhushan Dabir, Mr. Vishal Prabhukhanolkar and Ms. Vinita Singh have formulated the PROTON business school’s curriculum and course. All of them are IIM Ahmedabad alumni. They are scholars and don many hats. Mr. Chakravarty has topped the extremely competitive CAT on twice the occasions with clear 100 percentile marks. In addition to this, he has also won the Gold Medal for being the best student at IIM Ahmedabad. Mr. Chakravarty said that they have structured the course and curriculum in a way that will help students’ complete growth, which in turn will help them in making a name for themselves and their country. To this end, they would use all the experience and knowledge they gained while studying at IIM Ahmedabad.
The CEO of PROTON business school is Prof. Varun Gupta. Introducing yet another attraction of PROTON business school, Mr. Manudhane said that Prof. Gupta is one of those rare luminaries in the field of education who have always excelled in academics. Obtaining first position in the MP Board exam, he got his first gold medal. His Gold medal-winning ways continued when he went on to pursue B.com, LLB, etc. He also holds a unique distinction of becoming India’s youngest Company Secretary. As CEO, he will be roping in his vast experience in training and guiding the students to their dream careers.
Chief Mentor Manudhane said he will be a keen player in the B-school’s scheme of things. His vision is to see the country’s youth excelling in today’s corporate world, which is dotted with never-before challenges and exciting opportunities at the same time. His youthful exuberance was visible when he started sharing the day-to-day working scheme. He plans to work personally on each student – a Proton – to shape every one as per their specific potential!
Be it noted that all the above-described experts are the faculty members of PROTON business school. All the students who wish to gain admission to this B-school may attend Proton Academic Conclave organized on 17 May 2008 at Hotel Sayaji. Apart from knowing the admission details, students will have a unique opportunity to be face-to-face with the distinguished faculty members of PROTON business school. It surely will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for young aspirants.
Mr. Manudhane said that now that the country has really caught up on a fast growth track, opportunities are appearing right in front of our faces. So many fields, hitherto unknown, are entering the lexicon of modern careers. Corporate Salaries have touched an all time high and even students from small areas have a burning desire to be a part of this bandwagon. It is these student aspirations, which were at the back of our minds when we founded PROTON business school. We will not just be doling out MBA degrees but curving out professionals who are responsible citizens and leaders. By leaders we don’t mean leaders as in politics, but trail-blazers in every field. On many occasions it is observed that today’s professional education strays from it path and loses its value, but at PROTON business school education will retain its promise and vigor and continue to guide students throughout their life.
Mr. Manudhane said that PROTON business school will be launched in a ceremony on Saturday, 17 May at Hotel Sayaji. Many renowned management experts from around the world are coming to Indore to participate in the ceremony. The first Proton Positive Contribution Awards will also be held the same day, to felicitate positive achievers from various walks of life.
