“We all know the challenges facing Indian MBA education rather well. The first four Indian Management Conclaves held between 2010-2013 had extensively highlighted the key issues such as policy conundrum, miss-match in demand & supply of MBA seats, lack of Employability of MBA graduates, and a focus on delivering quality education that have eroded the credibility of Indian MBA education. Indeed, a lot needs to be done – at a macro, policy level. However, we all need to first do the doable – take actions which are within our ‘Circle of Influence’, and not wait for things to settle down”, said Amit Agnihotri,  Convener, Indian Management Conclave & Chairman, MBAUniverse.com.
