This top management conference aims to bring together management experts, scholars, practicing managers, business leaders, policy administrators and other academicians from different countries of South Asia on a platform to discuss various connected thoughts, issues and research findings.

The theme of the 2017 CRMC is “Transformational Leadership: Turning Ideas into Action”. Transformational leadership focuses on the leadership approach that initiates positive change in individuals and social systems. It is expected to drive the management processes in which managers learn competencies for achieving their tasks and adding value to the community at large. A leader inspires influences and instructs members towards the achievement of the set vision and goals. Challenging status quo to align followers with tasks that enhance individual level to an institutional level performance is the core requisite of the transformational leader.
