ISB has 40 per cent of women students in the cohort, which is among the highest in leading business schools in this part of the world. Women-focused hiring programmes such as Citibank's Catalyst and Axis Bank's WE Lead hired women candidates for their senior and middle-level leadership positions from ISB.
