Sri Sharada Institute of Management


Sri Sharada Institute of Management

For the past several years, the Shankara Vidya Kendra (SVK) has been the hub of intense intellectual and spiritual activity, attracting a large number of intellectuals, executives and swamis. Nestled in the serene environs of central vasant vihar, the SVK has pioneered the cause of value based practices in the management profession since the past decade. Eminent corporate personalities joined hands in promoting a new management credo-VIVEK MANAGEMENT, after painstaking efforts in research and consultancy. The objective was singular: to produce value-enriched managers who could create corporate environments of excellence, with the strategic intent of reviving the pristine glory of the Indian Nation.

Many national level management conferences were organized to generate the awareness of this philosophy:

Karma, Guna and HRM in Darsanas (1989); Indian values and productivity with Indian Merchants Chamber, Bombay (1990); Indian values and leadership with Prof. S.K. Chakraborty-IIM, Calcutta (1991); Indian values motivation with Ahmedaabd Management Association (1992); Indian values and self development with IISc, bangalore (1993); Indian values and organizational effectiveness with Madras Management Association (1994); Indian values and HRM with Hyderabad Management Association (1995); etc. other national programmes on indian ethos in management includes New paradigms in management (1992), Indian ethos for leadership with Department of Science and Technology and programmes for All India Management Association.

Recognizing the growing a significance of a value orientation to business in particular and education in general, the need arose of establishing a management institute which would strive to impart the lofty ideals of character building to future corporate managers, apart from education in conventional management skills and techniques. The idea translated into reality on the 16th of october 1994, during the Vijay Yatra of His Holiness, the Jagadguru Shankaracharya of Sringeri when the final decision to set up a unique management institute with focus on Indian shastras took concrete shape and received the endorsement and blessings of his Holiness. It was decided that the institute would be named Sri Sringeri Sharada Institute of Indian Management – Research and would be situated in the picturesque location of Shankara Vidya Kendra.

Sri Sringeri Sharada Institute of Management (SriSIM) was inaugurated on 22nd July 1996 by Shri T.N. Seshan, Former Chief Election Commissioner of India and Dr. D. Swaminadhan, Member, Planning Commission. The institute offers two years full time Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management (PGDBM) programme with outstanding focus on Indian ethos duly approved by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). This institute is working under the stewardship of eminent management philosopher, Dr. Mrityunjay B. Athreya, whose visionary guidance creates the agenda of growth for SriSIIM. The institute also aims to develop a band of learning individuals, armed with strong conceptual foundation and intuitive insights, who are capable of successfully meeting the challenges of a global business economy. The institute is geared to prepare students with the perfect blend of life skills and managerial competence to contribute to the yeoman task of nation building through sustained economic development.
