" A leader
is one whose leadership satisfies and is
effective, one who is always ahead of those
he seeks to lead, who is fearless and courageous
and, above all, whose disinterestedness
is above suspicion. He remains a leader
so long as he maintains these qualities.
Once a leader is not always a leader. Leadership
in a progressive community, changes with
time and circumstances "
Lala
Lajpat Rai - Visionary Par Excellence

| A Profile |
Lala Lajpatrai was one of the foremost freedom fighters and was born on 28th January 1865 in Dhudike village in Ferozpur, District of Punjab.
Lala Lajpatrai was known for his single minded zeal and devotion to the Indian Nationalist cause. Whilst, the rest of the Indian leaders bowed before the British rule, he took up the battle and challenged the might of the Empire for which he had to pay the ultimate price with his life.
From a management perspective, he believed in India’s economic regeneration and eventual resurgence as an economic power. Lalaji was fearless and candid in expressing his views. Lalaji was an educationist, a visionary and a pioneer who gave shape to India’s educational system.
He played a major role in India’s struggle for Independence and patriots like him can never be forgotten. When Lalaji died on 17th November, 1928; Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation in his tribute to Lalaji exclaimed, “Men like Lalaji cannot die as long as the sun shines in the Indian sky.” We are eternally indebted to Lalaji and we feel proud, honored and inspired that his august name graces our institution.

| KAMAL GUPTA - CHAIRMAN Today's business environment is characterized by the need to constantly innovate and
to reinvent oneself in order to sustain and grow one's stature in the industry
Pedagogic innovations based on commitment to simple but practical objectives, namely
'influencing practice' and 'promoting value-based growth', have found deep roots in
our academic program. Our focus is on an important agenda: an effective and
symbiotic relationship between the Industry and the Institute. We believe that
proper managerial perspective, search of excellence and efficient managerial action
is possible by a person with managerial potential developed into a highly
resourceful, enriched and stimulating mind through knowledge, skills and attitudes
provided. This has been the central theme of LLIM in its outlook
V. B. ANGADI - DIRECTOR
It is quite appropriate to recall what Charles Darwin has observed, “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent but the one most responsive to change”. Global Economic environment as well as economic environment in India is witnessing spectacular changes.
In particular, India’s services sector has grown remarkably in terms of its contribution to GDP growth and also in terms of its share in the international business. It is increasingly realized that a knowledge based society is absolutely necessary for rapid economic development.
The global playing field is being levelled by the technological revolution and paradigm shift in the policy regime all over the world. The forces of tradition, culture and commitments to preserve national identity have caused a major change in the corporate approach to international business. Multinational companies are trying to widen their vision and in consequence, “They think global and act local” In short, appropriate knowledge, skill and attitude have emerged as significant driving forces in the present context of globalization and liberalization.
The Trust
A group of philanthropists came together
and started on a odyssey to provide world
class education in the very heart of Mumbai.
A Trust was formed and named after Lala Lajpat
Rai, the great freedom fighter, social reformer
and an educationist.
The Trust was established to promote educational
activities that were dear to Lalaji's heart.
Establishment of the Trust and other educational
institutions by a few Punjabi philanthropists
in Mumbai was a true homage to the worthy
son of India - The Late Lala Lajpatrai.
