This book gives an account of how a small institute with all its limitations and constraints became a leading management institute of national stature. It provides the chronology of new measures introduced, policies implemented, and advances made, particularly in the areas of curriculum, pedagogy, and faculty development. The story gains much significance from serious constraints the institute faced with regard to human and financial resources and the steps it took to overcome its limitations. Many progressive and unconventional methods followed by the institute over a period of time created unexpected spin-offs. A better learning environment, improved educational experience and quality of life of students, increased placement opportunities, and widened scope made a strong impact and enabled the institute for wide industry acceptance and interaction with other management scientists and bodies. The book tells the story about the T. A. Pai Management Institute (TAPMI), which, despite all odds, became a leading B-School in the country from a small, lesser-known institute.
D. Nagabrahmam is former director of TAPMI. He is a fellow of IIMA and has about 40 years of experience in teaching, research, and academic administration. He has been involved for more than 16 years with TAPMI as the director and is known to be responsible for its development, growth, and reputation. Earlier, he was a faculty member in Osmania University and Institute of Rural Management Anand. During his tenure at TAPMI, he was instrumental in ushering in many significant changes. These include introduction of "thematic curriculum," commencement of a weekend executive PGDM program for the first time in India, and being the first B-school seeking international accreditation with AACSB and introduction of an innovative course, namely, "Management in Practice.
