“The EMBA is providing me with a clear view of how to look at an organisation as a whole and appreciate and prepare for the challenges I face as a leader in my organisation. The Program is designed so that after each subject, one can apply the knowledge directly to our work environment, which I experienced right after completing my first course. The Program has brought me in touch with a class full of fine professionals from various industry backgrounds who have significantly enriched my learning experience, especially during group assignments and networking outside of the class. Attending this EMBA program while working full-time has helped me organise my time and make adjustments during weekends by discussing with my family. This, in itself, was a great learning experience,” expressed Anil Chelamchela, student of SP Jain’s EMBA program. Anil is a senior tech leader with over 22 years of experience in technology and works as a senior director of IT at a leading Fortune 100 company.
