Janat Shah is the founding director of IIM Udaipur. Under his leadership, IIM Udaipur has become the fastest growing management school in the country. IIMU arrived on the global education stage by getting accreditation from the AACSB in merely eight years of its establishment. With this achievement, IIM Udaipur has joined the elite group of 5 percent of the world’s B-schools to be accredited by AACSB. For consecutive two years, IIMU has been listed on the QS and FT Masters in Management (MIM) Rankings. IIMU is the youngest B-school in the world on both these rankings. IIMU is consistently counted among the top 5 institutes in India for research in management according to the methodology used by UT Dallas.

What does it take to be a challenger brand? How did IIMU define it’s goals of being a premier management education institution? Can you imagine Google as a competition to the management schools. Success principles from successful business and academic leaders and the opportunity India has as a young nation and its impact if not positively leveraged. All this and more in this discussion with Prof. Janat Shah.
