CBM MISSION

To provide transformational and change leadership and management for the development of economy and society through excellence in character, professionalism, education and research.

Motivation for this Mission: Most of the SMEs and large enterprises are family owned enterprises which constitute over 80% of businesses in Pakistan (and have “seth” family culture). Hence, CBM focuses on developing graduates who are street smart and go-getters who can take on the challenge to create startups and move, change and transform a startup into a small enterprise, a small enterprise to medium enterprise and a medium enterprise to large enterprise. They need the “leadership” skills to affect the “change and transformation” of current culture of existing organizations to a professional growth-oriented organizational culture.

Strategic focus of CBM includes major accreditations such as AACSB, making entrepreneurship as major career choice of our graduates, adoption of experiential learning, one-on-one mentoring by well reputed industry executives, making intellectual contributions as a primary determinant of faculty qualifications and development of critical skills and innovation through specially designed courses and a lively and thriving culture of student activities.
