CHALLENGE THE CHALLENGETHEME OF THE YEAR - 2020-2021
The pandemic has brought far reaching changes across the world. It is important to stay resilient and face these changes
with courage and optimism. The need of the hour is resilient leadership that will respond, recover and thrive as the world
works itself out of this crisis. Being transparent and earning the trust of all that they do will be the hallmark of leaders who
are far sighted. They will take bold steps to bring in untested strategies which can help their organizations to bounce
back and move forward and create even more value than ever before and create a positive impact on society. GSB’s
students have been put through a rigorous program and they have the right attitude to show resilience and serve their
leaders best. We are confident that this crisis will deepen their resolve to prove their mettle in these challenging times.
B-school students have a lot to learn from the responses of government and industry this year. To quote Denis Waitley
from the Empires of Minds -“There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the
responsibility for changing them”. GSB has proposed to choose the theme -“Challenge the Challenge” for the year
2020-21 to ensure hope, change and transformation in education, business and society at large.

CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGEWhatever has been developed for the 20th-century workforce is being dismantled and
reconstructed. Education institutions are no exception to this. We must re-assess our roles now
and decide how we should evolve and develop for the future. We will have to acknowledge that
the pathways of the future will be better served by alternative, innovative teaching-learning
models that will necessitate using newer technologies and blended teaching styles and our
faculty must be adept at learning new skills – to meet these new challenges.
As we march past our decennial year and beyond, our B-school has been continuously evolving
- pursuing and inculcating several innovative ways of teaching, learning and experience-sharing
methodologies. This has been made possible by the resources of our qualified and experienced
faculty, state-of-the-art infrastructure, modern computer lab with Wi-Fi and the spacious
well-stocked Library.
We create individuals who want to be leaders in business in the world of tomorrow through
helping them acquire a broad set of knowledge, attitude and skills. Our mission is to nurture and
train managers and leaders with a social conscience and the ability to deliver performance and
attain excellence in their performance. GSB inculcates human values and professional ethics in
the students, which make them independent in decision making and create a path that is good
not only for them, but also for our society and for our nation.
Shri. S.P Selvaraj,
Chairman
Gnanam School of Busines
“Go wide, nurture an inquisitive, enterprising and curious outlook and learn new
things”. You just need a spark to kindle your true passion in life. There is more to
success than a well-paying job. It is defined by the challenges that push one’s mind,
the goals that take one higher and the nurturing relationships that give meaning and
purpose to one’s life.
We at GSB, are focused on creating professional managers – individuals equipped
with the right kind of knowledge, technical skills and an ability to think out of box and
be innovative. As industries raise the bar on their expectations from B-school
graduates only those who have the right attitude and are ready to learn new skills to
keep themselves will be the winners. Hard work alone is no more the key to success
but our budding managers are expected to work smarter and consistently without
failure.
I am indeed happy to convey that we are on the right track creating a symbiotic
relationship between industry and the academia through a mutual exchange of
practical and theoretical aspects of management knowledge, judiciously blended
with professional expertise and committed to impart management education that is
complete for preparing our students to become well rounded modern day managers.
Yours Sincerely,
Dr. S.P.S.Arul Doss, CEO,
Gnanam School of Business
