Riassunto

Ten years ago, the founders of the Indian School of Business, Hyderabad articulated a vision that was as daunting to execute as it was simple to state: to build a world-class business school in India. The rest is history: within a decade the ISB grew from a start-up venture to globally top-ranked business school, named among the top twenty business schools in the world three years in a row, with the distinction of being the youngest business school ever to enter the world top twenty rankings. An Idea Whose Time Has Come traces the ISB s eventful history and also examines the reasons that account for the institute s success. What emerges is a tale of perseverance and dedication, of challenges met and rewards reaped, and of an unshakeable idea that was painstakingly transformed into an invincible institution. It is no wonder that the ISB continues to attract thousands of confident, purposeful men and women every year and moulds them into talented professionals.

Recensione

The book is an excellent source of information for anyone who is involved or may get involved in setting up an institution in India. The books focuses on setting up an MBA institution but the learnings can be put to use in other araes too. Conceptulisation, team building, fund raising, regulatory issues, marketing, staffing are discussed at length with execellent examples. Highly recommended. --GAURAV MITTAL Jul 12, 2012

It is a book that help nicely envision the thought process went into making India's greatest management school. I think that some of the student experiences would have enriched the overall reading experience. Nevertheless a good book to read. --Nitish Sharma Apr 13, 2014
