GLF Business School

The group started its journey in late ‘90s with its management consulting and training arm – the “Strategic Management Technology Consultants” (SMT). In 2004, the “Venture Lab: Business Innovation and Incubation Project” was initiated to facilitate new businesses and to provide professional support and necessary training to the entrepreneurs. In 2005, the group constituted “SMT Centre For Advanced Learning”, a public charitable educational trust and started publishing “The Resource Economist”, a bi-annual research journal. The “Global Leadership Forum” (GLF) was also formed in the same year under the aegis of the group with a mission to create a new dimension of leadership and develop a new breed of leaders integrating the ancient thoughts originated in India and modern leadership practices across the globe. The Forum has now emerged as a popular platform of the stalwarts from public sector, social sector, corporate world as well as academia. It has developed strong linkages with industry and academic institutions. GLF organizes Leadership Conferences that seeks to develop professional managers and leaders for all walks of life. The “Leadership Wisdom” of GLF is threaded with its management programs to develop leaders with global perspective in both thought and practice. It confers Global Leadership Awards to Thought & Practice Leaders. The GLF Business School was started in 2009 to act as a catalyst to the evolution of management education in 21st century.
