Dr. Purkayastha, Director of the world-class IBS Case Research Center, said, “Winning this prestigious award for three successive years demonstrate IBS’s heft in developing critical and socially-relevant cases. In the post Covid-19 world, the role played by the government/ public sector will increase, and it will be critical for new-age managers to work collaboratively. Such cases will prepare future mangers to work with multiple-stakeholders in solving problems in the interface of public policy and business.” |
