"ISM alumni not only have fundamental theoretical knowledge, but are also used to dealing with practical business tasks. They are able to assess whether an idea would work in practice, they also have a broad worldview and can think beyond the prism of one function, area or country. They see and analyze the wider context. In addition, these are employees who are characterized by proactivity, critical thinking, good time management and conscientiousness. The solutions presented by ISM students are often unconventional and outside the box".

"ISM University alumni enter the labor market with well-developed entrepreneurial skills. They are ambitious, innovative, and highly proactive, taking a serious approach to their work and focusing on achieving KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). ISM graduates are not hesitant to take initiative and offer suggestions for process improvement. They swiftly integrate into their teams, are unafraid to ask questions, and consistently display a deep interest in their field that goes beyond the requirements of their positions. Furthermore, the vast majority of graduates are keenly interested in current topics such as investing or sustainability, and they know how to apply this knowledge in their work."

The main goal of our organization is to have managers who are open to new things, processes and knowledge. Managers who have studied at the ISM become more self-confident, motivated, result-oriented, proactive and driven. The studies increase their appetite for change, and they want to share this spirit with their colleagues, share new practices, and their newly-discovered strong desire to grow and try out new things. It makes you realize that you have to learn and evolve constantly - after all, something that worked five years ago probably won't work anymore today.
Sigitas Meilūnas
COO of "TNDM Trucking“
Studies in our organization are important as a means of developing the managers’ competence and boosting their motivation. Each manager takes something different from the studies. For some the greatest gain is new acquaintances and sharing experience, for some it’s self-knowledge, for others yet it is professional growth or new competences acquired. Is the course of executive studies something that will add value to you and bring revenue? It depends on how successful you are in making the most of it. We are happy that the investment is paying off.

Over several years, more than 100 “Girteka Logistics” managers of different levels have deepened their knowledge in various ISM management skills development programs. ISM MM allows the company not only to motivate employees and develop expert managers, but also to grow its internal reserve of professional managers, to improve the internal company culture, to carry out activities taking into account the latest business trends, and to make decisions based on acquired theoretical and practical knowledge rather than just intuition.

ISM students are well-known to us at BITĖ. Many of our interns successfully continue their careers here, and some of our managers have graduated from or are currently studying in one of ISM's numerous study programs. We highly value the quality of education at ISM, where many of the instructors are experienced practitioners. This results in students already having a deeper understanding of how business works when they join our team.
