At SDMIMD, Mysuru, leadership development begins from the grassroots, nurturing students into confident professionals equipped to navigate complex business challenges and dynamic corporate environments.
A compelling example of this commitment was the session on “Responsibilities of Independent Directors”, conducted under the Business Landscape Lecture Series – 2026. The session was led by Dr. C.K. Sabareesan, Independent Director at Panasonic Appliances Ltd. and BPL Ltd., who brought rich industry insights and boardroom perspectives to the discussion.
The session provided students with a comprehensive understanding of the pivotal role independent directors play in ensuring corporate governance, ethical decision-making, accountability, and organizational sustainability. Dr. Sabareesan also highlighted the emerging challenges, evolving responsibilities, and strategic opportunities associated with board leadership in today's business landscape.
By bridging academic learning with real-world corporate practices, the session offered students valuable exposure to the realities of boardroom governance, empowering them with practical insights that will enhance their future leadership journeys.
