 At ISDM, we place an equal focus not only on the theory and insights from industry experts but also on hands-on learning experiences. In the most exciting phase of the program ‘Realising India’ Field Immersion, students get a first-hand experience of the on-ground realities of rural India. This helps them develop a better understanding of the social, cultural, and political ecosystem in which they will work and eventually create and lead #socialimpact. - 

The Post-Graduate Program in Development Management is the only 11-month program in Development Management globally, that blends ideas of development with management theories, combining in-class sessions with collaborative group work and a field component. The Program aims to develop a cadre of Social Sector Professionals who can design interventions, and build, lead and manage organizations for sustainable social impact at scale.

 Applications for the Batch of 2023-24 are now open!

My journey started as a manager of a cellular firm. Precisely, my primary job was to sell smartphones. I sold phones, promising better communication among people. Once on a field visit to Lava, a tribal village in West Bengal, I realized that the phones I sold could connect humans but not humans with nature. Upon reflection, I discerned that I have restricted myself, too, with spoken words and visible issues. The increasing disconnection with our inner-self concerned me. With the hope to find solutions, I joined the Gandhi Fellowship.

Recently, I got to explore and understand the wonderful work being done by a philanthropist in his native rural area. The organisation was working across multiple domains – from sports to theatre for development, skill building and livelihood, agricultural information services, women empowerment, pre-school support, etc.

The study on Benchmarking Talent Management in Indian Social Sector, seeks to understand how the Social Impact Sector approaches 'talent' and 'compensation' to help key stakeholder groups address the challenges around organisational talent. The research aims to examine 'what is' in terms of the current talent management practices in the sector and attempts to lay the foundations of 'what it ought to be' in terms of the principles or norms that need to be developed for the emerging sectoral ecosystem.
