So far, ISB has trained over 49,000 executives.
The FT Ranking global ranking of ISB Executive Education would further strengthen our resolve to put India on the global map for high-quality research and education. Coming days ahead of the Prime Minister's visit, this result is cherished, even more, he said.

We empower executives with the knowledge and behaviour required to build, lead and grow organisations that create significant impact."
