The Eisenhower Fellow

In a couple of days, Raman Madhok, Joint Managing Director and CEO, Jindal Iron and Steel Company Limited - and an XL alumnus from 81PMIR batch, will be leaving for USA for a few month as The Eisenhower Fellow



The Eisenhower Fellowships site profiles him:

Mr. Madhok is responsible for the growth and profitability of the largest iron and steel manufacturing and exporting company in India, with a turnover of approximately US$480 million in the past year. Coming from a background in human resources, Mr. Madhok carefully applies an employee-centric ethos to his corporation, engaging employees in a collaborative manner on a variety of workplace issues. This has led Jindal Iron and Steel to be rated as one of India's "25 Great Places to Work" and earned praise for the quality of Mr. Madhok's leadership. Mr. Madhok sees many parallels between India and the United States, and during his Eisenhower Fellowship he plans to examine the characteristics of American growth and leadership over the past few decades, both within the corporate world and in society as a whole. Among others, he plans to meet with representatives from leading U.S. steel corporations, as well as management schools and institutes.

In 2000-01, Raman was also the Chevening Scholar at Manchester Business School.
