Wondering whats all dis abt ?? So let me just begin abt INSEAD ..
Was just surfing through the WWW thinking abt what to do after 2 or 3 yrs of my job with TCS .. Just came through this 50 yr old institute located in France and Singapore .. In – see – ad (as it is phonetically pronounced ) was ranked as 1 of the top B schools around the world ..
I thought whats so special about INSEAD .. So just gave a search in Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia .. And I was dumb struck with what i found ..
For eg : INSEAD’s motto is “The Business School for the World” which is something very new and i heard this for the 1st time ..
Another thing that made my jaws drop was its Alumni .. I mean it was unbelievable that most of today’s CEO’s and a number of Chairman’s were Alumna’s of INSEAD .. Look @ the following names
Peter Job, Former CEO, Reuters
Simon J Critchell, CEO, Dunhill
Lindsay Owen-Jones, Chairman, L’Oreal
Michael van Swaaij, CEO, Skype
Mike Salmi, President, MTV
Michael Obermayer, Managing Director, World Economic Forum
Birger Steen, CEO, Microsoft Russia
Heinz-Joachim Neubürger, Managing Director, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co
Johannes Feldmayer, Member Managing Board, Siemens AG
B Muthuraman, Managing Director, Tata Steel
Barbara Kux, Chief Procurement Officer, Phillips
Charles Watson, President, Shell EMEA and South Asia
Most of us wouldn’t know a majority of the above people ( tat includes me too ), but almost all of us would surely be knowing the power houses that these people belong to .. I mean Tata , MS , Philips n Siemens , L’Oreal , Reuters …. It goes on n on n on …. These are just a few names in that list ..
So if u have that CEO or the chair material in u , go join INSEAD although it might be a little heavy on ur pockets, after seeing the names in the list, u might be tempted to read more abt tat school ..
