2. From the
Director’s Desk
Dear Recruiter,
It gives me immense pleasure to introduce you to the
PGPEX class of 2013. Launched in collaboration with the Ocean
University of China, PGPEX is a full time Post Graduate Program in
International Business for Executives that focuses on emerging
economies specially China. The growth potential of the emerging
economies has not only opened up new business opportunities but
also new challenges. The course has been designed by key faculty
members of Sino Indian business schools to prepare leaders for
conducting business in such economies and incorporates best
business practices of both India and China.
This Programme aims at enabling the participants with skills for conducting business
in the Emerging Economies, inculcating global outlook by synergizing all functional areas of
management; equipping them to operate at strategic levels. The participants of the program have
gone through the rigorous academic process of IIM Shillong and as a part of the program, spent five
months at Ocean University of China where they took courses on doing business in China, business
culture and language besides interning in reputed Chinese companies to integrate classroom
learning with practical experience.
PGPEX-2013 is the first ever batch of management graduates (globally) who have an
in-depth training in the business practices of both India and China. The unique advantage of this
program is supplemented by the diverse profile of the batch.I am confident that within the batch of
PGPEx-2013, you will find highly motivated individuals who have the necessary skills, global
exposure and cross cultural management experience to bring utmost value to your organization.

"Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning
is perilous."
-The Analects, Confucius
Ever since the economic reforms were initiated,
China has come a long way from being a closed economy to a
nation clocking double digit growth consistently over the past three
decades. China has the twin advantages of being a global economic
power as well as a vast market. This has stimulated the interest of
many countries & multinational companies in the mystic nation.
In light of the recent global economic turmoil, the emphasis on quality management education has
increased. The need of the hour is leaders who are equipped with the skill-set to handle crisis
situations. The rising political clout of BRICS reiterates the heightened responsibilities China and India
have on the new global stage.
Under this scenario the need for leaders who possess the management perspectives of
both west and east has arisen. We have designed this course to nurture such leaders who can take
this management approach to the next level. The course structure is well thought out to be a
combination of theoretical principles supplemented with practical exposure to the same. Having
understood the challenges China can pose to an overseas business, all aspects of Chinese culture,
Chinese Language, Chinese Business Management, Chinese Marketing Management and China’s
approach to world economics are covered in the course. Industrial visits to major establishments are
organized to enable the participants get a glimpse of their business practices. Finally the participants
are subjected to a full time 10 week internship to help them apply the knowledge they gained in to
practice.
We are delighted that the 35 participants of this course are tailor made to its
requirements. They have demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm, dedication and inquisitiveness
throughout. We are sure that they will stand as models for the vision we had while creating the
course. We have no doubts that this batch of 35 leaders will revolutionize the business practices in the
industries they are absorbed while fostering the friendly ties of China and India .

4. Program Chair - PGPEx
Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Shillong has
created a niche for itself among the premier business schools in
India through its innovative approach towards business education.
The first ever Sino-Indian management program for executives is
another step forward in this direction that aims to develop global
leaders for the future. The program is in response to ever growing
need of professionals who have the necessary skills and expertise
to work in emerging markets specially China.
The 35 participants of the PGPEX-2013 have been carefully selected through a
rigorous selection process based on incisive personal interviews, quality of previous work
experience and excellent CAT/GMAT score. Consequently we have a batch that has participants
with immense potential drawn from different sectors. This unique, challenging and globally
oriented Programme’ s main objective is to produce future leaders who can handle current
market turbulences and dynamic corporate environment effectively. Designed for professionals
with substantial work experience, the key attribute of this Sino – Indian PGPEx in International
Business is its focus on emerging economies.
The PGPEX curriculum is meticulously designed to prepare the participants in all
aspects of management before they enter global organizations. The participants have gone
through intensive classroom teaching through case study based pedagogy in India as well as
during the China module. The classroom teaching has been supplemented by periodic industry
visits, seminars, corporate lectures and 10 week internship opportunity with reputed Chinese
companies. At the onset of the Programme, we had envisaged to develop global leaders having
temperament to work in a multicultural environment along with strong domain knowledge to
take their respective organizations to newer heights. Having closely monitored the progress of
the batch as Chairman of the programme, I can assure that the present batch of PGPEX-13 has
come out exactly the way we had envisaged.
On behalf of the PGPEX team, I invite you to be a part of recruitment process and
let the participants of PGPEX-2013, whom we have nurtured to be global leaders of tomorrow,
do wonders for your organization.

6. PGPEx Course: Innovative Inside
The PGPEx curriculum incorporates best business practices to face the issues affecting the world with
focus on India and China. It provides participants with a broad & balanced worldview of business
environment and cultures of both the rising economies. Each participant has learned to analyze
problems, think strategically, and build organizations. Moreover, they developed leadership skills, with
emphasis on working with multicultural global teams. Some of the innovative approaches in the course
are:
I. Seminar Module
It has two objectives
• To supplement class-room learning by engaging with
global business leaders
• To expose students to the world outside of
management for holistic leadership development.
II. Comprehensive International Project
The objective of the project is to apply the concepts and
methodologies learned in the Programme to the real-
world management issues and to integrate classroom
learning with practical experience to manage business
internationally.
III. International Immersion - China
The International Immersion module in the PGPEx is
designed to give participants insights into the emerging
economies of India and China. The insights include the
economic, social and cultural aspects of these
countries. In this regard, the participants stayed for five
months in OUC, Qingdao and took courses on business
management aspects of China.
IV. Language Course
One of the unique features of the PGPEx curriculum is
the training in the foreign languages. IIMS-OUC offers a
choice of foreign languages like Chinese and French.
