LBSIM: Grooming Socially Sensitive Business Leaders For Tomorrow

Today, the globalized nature of the world of business and its interface with the emerging markets in the backdrop of ubiquity of technology and increasing pace of unpredictability have mandated to move into a new business equation that requires different mindset and sets of skills to an even greater extent than they conventionally had in the past. Business Continuity Management (BCM) can enable the continuance of key business processes to gain competitive advantage in today’s contemporary marketplace. The big challenge Covid-19 pandemic pose was to maintain the quality education for every institution. LBSIM in these unforeseen times managed to keep the qualitative side up. Online education was a new challenge, but the commitment to the silver jubilee batch made them to excel. The faculty continues with full dedication. From virtual classes to events, 2020 batch of LBSIM students are shining through. These features make us proud to be SHASTRIANS.
