As anextensionof the regularBMprogram, students
of global business management begin their journey
at XLRI followed by an international year. Starting
this year, the students also undergo the regular
summer internship program to further strengthen
their roots in India while at the same time pursuing
international live projects in China and USA.
The students are not just intellectually at par
with the best minds of the country, the focused
course content, lectures and faculty interactions
greatly enhance and contributed to the formation
of effective global managers who are ready to
take on international challenges in a variety of
work environments. I am confident that, given
an opportunity, they will be an asset to your
organization and that you would greatly benefit
from their experience and expertise.
Dear Recruiters,
The Global Business Management program at
XLRI is a flagship program offered in partnership
with Case Western Reserve University (Cleveland,
USA) and Tongji University (Shanghai, China). It
constitutes a diverse class of Indian, American
and Chinese students who study, work and grow
together. We believe that taking an overview of the
world of business will enable us to create a brand of
managers with a global outlook, cultural empathy,
experience of studying and working in the world’s
largest economies along with a will to adapt to
changing circumstances. This fine batch of students
has been selected after they have successfully
fulfilled the qualifying standards set up by XLRI for
admission into its coveted business management
program.

Director’s Message
Having stamped its class in academic and corporate
circles, the alumni of XLRI today don the most
challenging and demanding roles in the industry
- India and abroad. This is testimony to the trust
and belief that the industry has bestowed in us for
years and more importantly is a commitment from
XLRI to deliver the best consistently. This journey
from darkness to light for the students would
not be possible but for the strong bond that XLRI
shares with the business world. We look forward to
forging stronger bonds of co-operation to traverse
unchartered territories of excellence.
I welcome you to experience this novel initiative.
Welcome home to XLRI!

Placement Chairperson’s Message
Dear Recruiters,
‘Change’. That word sure has a lot of meaning and
purpose for all of us here at XLRI. It is the premise
on which the academic programs are designed
to be effective. Keeping this belief in mind and
considering today’s dynamic business environment
which is highly competitive, the Global Business
Management Program continues to grow from
stride to stride. Through the coordinated efforts
of all three participating schools, the students of
Global Business Management go through extensive
real world training to substitute the theoretical
MBA education as they take up challenging live
company projects in all three countries. By working
in teams composed of students from different
countries of the world, the XLRI students are able
to leverage their management expertise in solving
real world problems.
There is a need for innovative business leaders to
help generate growth, but there is also a need for
leaders who understand other cultures, economies,
and policies to sustain the growth that’s been
generated. XLRI has maintained an aura of culture
and legacy over six decades of innovative growth
and excellence.
