Quote Sheet :
Rakesh Bharti Mittal, Vice Chairman, Bharti Enterprises&
Chairman, Advisory Council of Bharti Institute: “As India moves forward with
its growth agenda, there is a need to create an ecosystem for capacity building
in the area of Public Policy. The MPPP is a quantum leap towards meeting the
vision of Bharti Institute “To impact public policy by delivering cutting-edge
education, research and engagement”. With a world-class curriculum and faculty,
this high quality program will benefit participants from government, social and
private sectors and help formulate policies for a modern India.”
Ajit Rangnekar, Dean, ISB: “It is imperative that the
government increasingly focuses on efficient execution of government schemes
and programmes. This requires administrators and policy makers to be conversant
with sound management principles and to know how these principles are
successfully applied. The Government and the Industry have to work together to
implement government programmes so the industry must also be effective in
working with the government. The MPPP is our initiative for both private and
public sectors to develop expertise to deliver on national programmes.”
Professor Laurent Jacque, The Fletcher School of Law and
Diplomacy: This unique one year Certificate’s program provides a rigorous and
inter-disciplinary conceptual learning experience for high performing civil
servants and elected officials whose calling is to inflect India’s future
course for the better. Last but not least by partnering with the Fletcher
School of Law and Diplomacy (Tufts University) in Boston the Bharti Institute
is locking in a powerful network of expertise in the domain of public policy and
international affairs and is securing access to a powerful global web of
influential alumni often in senior government positions.
Pradeep Singh, Deputy Dean and CEO of ISB’s Mohali campus:
“The focus of MPPP is as much on policy implementation as it is on formulation.
It combines key management learnings with the broader politico-economic context
of policy making and addresses the challenges faced in the emerging markets
like India even while learning from best global practices contributed by The Fletcher School and the high profile
faculty teaching at this programme.”
