Rethinking management is urgent and necessary
The Indian School of Development Management was founded on a simple but urgent premise: Management School curricula are inadequate and often at odds with the needs of the social sector. There is a need to reimagine existing management principles and paradigms and build the discipline of Development Management for the sector through the collective wisdom and experiences of sector professionals, practitioners, academia, and organisations.
Collaboration, not competition
Development Management’s fundamental ethos is about collaboration and freely sharing knowledge to enable social change.
Reimagining the bottom line
Thinking beyond generating profits and shareholder value through a holistic approach to long-term value creation for a wide set of stakeholders.
Beyond business metrics
Cost efficiency, productivity and other business metrics need to exist alongside equity, justice, and dignity to generate true social impact.
Development Management
A unique discipline for the social sector
