DEAN'S MESSAGE
The Post Graduate Diploma in Management (Rural Management) at XIMB is a refreshing and innovative departure from the traditional focus of management education. Here, we emphasize on the need to expand the use of management science to rural sector, by delving into the dynamics of rural India and understanding the essence of doing business in rural India. This programme captures the nation's imagination of growing at 8 to 10 percent per annum through a process of rural catch up with the urban India. We create managers not only for the corporate sector but also for the social sector. A participant of this program not only develops a deep understanding of the rural sector but also learns to adapt the best managerial practices to the unique circumstances of the rural society. During the two year program the students are exposed to the rural society through various field trips and projects as part of their curriculum. A 4 week long stint in the rural area engaged with an NGO or similar organizations helps the students to get first-hand experience of rural life, preparing them for serving rural economy in a better way. The exposure has been capitalized by many of our alumni, who have become entrepreneurs by being able to spot significant business opportunities that connect the urban to the rural sector. Welcome to XIMB! I am sure you will find that our students, trained by the academic rigor and spirit of excellence of this institute, are ready to usher in the winds of change into the rural scene of our nation. The long tradition of PGDM (RM) strengthens our faith that these students will serve as assets to your organization.

RURAL MANAGEMENT
XIMB is committed to social transformation. Since its inception, the program has been providing quality managerial inputs. It is one of the few B-schools in the country that seeks to equip its students, with the best of managerial insights into both, the corporate and the social sectors. The basic objective of the rural management program is to inject professionalism into the field of rural management and development. The twoyear AICTE approved PGDM (RM) program, since its inception 15 years ago, has strived towards moulding rural managers, with the heart of a social worker and the mind of a b u s i n e s s m a n a g e r, b y i n f u s i n g professionalism into rural development and management. The RM program has produced many stalwarts in different fields and it has a strong legacy of performance par excellence. It trains individuals and groups to imbibe and cultivate a sense of respect for the poor and the under-privileged, even as it nurtures in them an understanding of the factors leading to higher levels of motivation and performance to achieve organizational goals.
Over a period of two years, the students develop competencies to analyse problems in a holistic manner, to seek, organize and present information that could lead to insightful, practical and innovative solutions. The course curriculum further helps them decipher the complex situations and go beyond the obvious. Discipline, versatility, creativity, and above all, humility form the hallmark of the students.
