“I would like to express my sincere thanks to the ISB team for organising the session by Prof. Ashneet Kaur. It was not only insightful and timely, but also deeply relevant in today’s evolving business environment.
For someone like me, with over 25 years of global experience, the session offered a valuable opportunity to reflect on familiar business challenges through a fresh and contemporary lens. Prof. Kaur’s perspectives connected strongly with the realities of leadership, decision-making, and transformation.
Please convey my warm appreciation and gratitude to Prof. Kaur for sharing her knowledge so generously. The session was meaningful, thought-provoking, and personally enriching, and we look forward to many more such engaging interactions with ISB in the future.”
