Not for Everyone — For the Few Who Aspire Differently

Every student is unique — different aspirations, different capabilities, different passion. That is exactly why the Centre of Excellence is built around a careful selection, not a crowd.

Selection Beyond CGPA

From amongst all the students who select the MBA in Finance at Chitkara Business School, only a few are onboarded onto the CXOs NextGen Centre of Excellence in Finance — chosen for their life skills, values and passion, not CGPA alone.

Built for Global CXOs

Here, the MBA in Finance is designed and delivered exclusively to create the CXOs of India & the globe — not just job-seekers, but future leaders.

Recognised by the Industry

Because of the uniqueness of their profiles, our students are recognised directly by the industry — by CXOs and their team members who spot such talent early.

Vision of CXOs NextGen Initiative

Normally, one would think of donating monetarily to help solve a problem — but that seldom works on the root cause. So we took on a very evident problem we all encountered during our extensive corporate exposure: students being taught with the same old theoretical curriculum, rendering them unfit for real jobs and requiring organizations to re-train them.

We countered it by designing a one-of-its-kind initiative, where programs are totally designed and delivered by very senior industry experts themselves — creating the CXOs & Entrepreneurs of tomorrow from amongst the generation of today.

About CXOs NextGen

What started as a Centre of Excellence has today taken the shape of a very large MOVEMENT. Over 3,000 senior industry leaders — from Big 4s like PwC, EY, Deloitte & KPMG; corporates like Volvo, Mahindra, Maruti, Wipro, Hero & Flipkart; investment banks like Morgan Stanley & JP Morgan; and banks like HDFC, Citi & ICICI — form a part of it.

The movement bridges the long-existent industry–academia gap by bringing in industry experts to educate, groom and handhold students for life, transforming them into job-capable professionals or entrepreneurs equipped with cutting-edge skills.

#CXOs Speak

I connected with this initiative from the beginning in 2016, to share my practical experiences and enhance the leadership skills of students. The students hired by us as trainees develop into front-runners in the organisation and grab placement offers with ease. They gain such wide exposure that they surely become an asset to any organisation.
