IIM Sambalpur Hosts Harvard Business Teaching Seminar
IIM Sambalpur held a special workshop with a professor from Harvard Business School to teach its faculty a new way of teaching using real-life business stories.
They learned how to use these stories to lead discussions and help students learn.

The goal is to prepare students to be leaders in the ever-changing world, especially in the face of AI.

Professor Mahadeo Jaiswal
Director, IIM Sambalpur
“In today’s era, AI is the equaliser, and it also integrates ideas as well. We all are aware of the disruption of AI. In this age of AI and rapid change in the business world, it is essential to focus on creativity, culture, and the human side of the business areas where AI cannot replace us. As a new IIM, we want to think differently, teach differently, and prepare our students to lead in this changing world.”
