DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE
“The dynamics of global and national businesses are
increasingly being shaped by sustainability concerns. In the
last two decades, as societies and businesses have become
more aware about environmental degradation and climate
change, more emphasis is being put on understanding of
associated socio-economic implications and sustainable
development, which are vital for businesses and societies
alike. Social, economic and environmental sustainability
have emerged on the forefront of business strategy and
businesses are increasingly aligning their vision so as to
be consistent with the global vision as well as vision of
the geographies in which they are present. The changed
business environment and evolving domestic and global
policies and regulations are forcing companies to deal
with a wide range of stakeholders that have dynamically
evolving, and often conflicting demands from business.
As companies try to understand, evaluate and take action
on issues that can affect the triple bottom line, they are
now seeking qualified individuals who understand the
integrated societal, environmental and business concepts of
sustainability. To cater to this need of business and society,
IIM Lucknow has launched a two-year full-time post graduate
programme in sustainable management (PGPSM) from
2015. PGPSM is the first two-year programme offered from
Noida Campus of IIM Lucknow. Needless to say, the selection
criteria and the academic curriculum remain as robust and
rigorous as our other post graduate programmes.
It gives me immense pleasure and pride to present our second
batch of PGPSM. I cordially welcome you to participate in the
placement process.”

PGPSM CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE “IIM Lucknow continuously strives
to align the curriculum of existing
academic programmes, keeping in view
the ever-increasing level of volatility,
uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity
of the business environment. Due to
increase awareness in the society about
environmental degradation, climate
change, and socio-economic implications
of unprecedented corporate power,
nation states have forced businesses to
mould their business strategies to align
with national and global Sustainable
Development Goals. IIM Lucknow
took the lead and launched a full-time
two-year Postgraduate Programme in
Sustainable Management (PGPSM). The
uniquely designed PGPSM curriculum
with extensive coursework, live projects,
and interaction with industry leaders with
a perfect blend of general management
skills and deep understanding of business
sustainability concepts and issues. I am
confident that PGPSM students are ready
to take any responsibility in their journey
from here. I welcome you to partner with
us on this journey.”
Prof. Ashish Aggarwal
Chairperson PGPSM, IIM Lucknow
CDS CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE “The uniquely designed PGP-SM
curriculum with extensive coursework,
live projects, and interaction with
industry leaders has transformed
the talented, bright and experienced
students through a perfect blend of
general management skills and deep
understanding of business sustainability
concepts and issues. Well qualified and
experienced faculty of IIM Lucknow
has been successful in inculcating much
sought after traits like discipline, sincerity,
dedication and compassion in these
students. I am confident that students of
PGPSM batch of 2018-20 are ready to take
any responsibility in their onward journey
from here. I welcome you to partner with
us in their journey and jointly contribute to
building sustainable societies.”
Prof. Ashish Dubey
CDS Chair, IIM Lucknow
CDS COORDINATOR’S MESSAGE “With increasing exposure of businesses
to Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) making it mandatory for
bigger businesses to include Business
Responsibility Report (BRR) as a part
of the Annual Report for top 100 listed
entities, one can clearly gauge the signal
from the financial sector and investors
for creating a pool of new business
leaders who can appropriately marry and
synergize the general managerial skills
with specialized knowledge of business
responsibility and sustainability for
building a more trustworthy business of
tomorrow. The Post Graduate Programme in
Sustainability Management, the one of its
kind programme offered by a reputed IIM
fills that void aptly and amply. I am glad to
introduce the PGPSM batch of 2018-20 and
would like to welcome you as a continued
partner in our journey of building world
class talent and jointly contribute to
building businesses and societies in the days
and years to come.”

solution providers for the worldly issues.

global strategy to strive towards holistic development.
The international immersion module sensitizes the

sustainable development. A two-week sojourn in world
renowned institutions like Linne University, Maastricht

Dong Energy, Rockwool and Volvo, Electrolux which are
Industry benchmarks for sustainability in their respective
sectors. Moreover, the participants actively engage with
local municipal bodies and citizen groups who are often
instrumental in bringing about behavioral changes in
society towards sustainable living. The programme
also creates a platform for cultural exchange among
participants and the local community.
"International immersion showcased the role of
community, policy, infrastructure and governance in
establishing a conducive environment for sustainable
development. This transcendental experience oriented
us towards our pursuit with a 'Glocal' perspective"
- Jayakarthikeyan E M, Batch 2015-17,
Tata Trusts
“The foreign immersion to 2 renowned universities had
exposed us to a multicultural environment & enriched our
understanding of sustainability in Scandinavian countries.
Insightful interactions with Industry representatives from
Ikea, Dong Energy and Volvo, has overwhelmed us with the
nuances of an end to end implementation of sustainability.”

EVENTS
IIM-LUCKNOW
Aarohan
Aarohan which in English means Ascend,z signifies
the ascend of knowledge, wisdom, industry-
academia collaboration and awareness among
corporates & other educational institutions about
IIML Noida Campus.
This fest is being introduced as an amalgamation
of Udyam, Sustain-e-sense and HR Conclave which
used to be organized by IPMX, PGPSM and WMP
respectively. The tentative dates for Aarohan are
3rd and 4th of November.
Pravaah
IIM Lucknow hosts, Pravaah, a corporate sports
tournament. This time the event consisted of
inter-corporate tournament in Football, Volleyball
and 3 km Mini marathon. The proceeds from this
tournament is contributed to the noble cause of
economically supporting under-privileged and
specially-abled children’s education.
Aagman
Aagman is the Annual Fresher’s party organized
to welcome the new batch of PGPSM. During
Aagman, various competitive rounds are organized
to find Mr. and Ms. Freshers.
LIVE, LAUGH & LEARN
IIM-LUCKNOW
With the alarm clock blaring we wake up with a
start, one glance at the clock and it’s evident that
it’s time to dash. It’s a race against time the journey
from room to the mess, grab a quick paratha or slice
of bread butter and jostling through academic block
corridors just to make it in time before professor
begins with roll call for 8.45 AM class.
And hence commences a long day of healthy
discussions via case studies, presentations and
role-plays. The 90 mins classes are well structured
encompassing both theoretical and practical aspects
of the curriculum keeping the students on their toes
and compelling them to use their grey cells all the
time and all the late-night discussions preparing
for the case studies are well paid off with all gaining
valuable insights from the diverse experience of the
batch. But all work and no play make Jack a dull boy-
and we PGPSMites believe that to the core. After
grueling sessions that make our minds work all
day long, it’s time to unwind and put our bodies to
work on the basketball court, tennis court, volleyball
court or football field. The entire batch is out and
sweating their stress out over games that can be as
competitive as a world cup final! A quick snack and
tea and everyone is back to rooms for preparing the
assignments, projects and surprise quizzes (yes,
they exist!). Apart from these routine tasks, there
are preparations for various events that pushes
everyone to use their organizing skills and time
management skills to the best.
Hostel life is vibrant with energy; friendships forged
that would last a lifetime and birthday Celebrations
that make you feel like a celebrity with so many
people swarming over to wish you and smother with
cake!
Amidst all the strenuous deadlines and sleep
deprived nights’ life at IIM Lucknow Noida
Campus is a roller coaster ride where every person
adds their own flavor to the place and makes it an
exhilarating enriching experience to be cherished
and valued for life.
