"Independent ratings confirm that the HSE Graduate School of Business prepares high-class specialists in demand for the market. GSB's strategy is built on the principles of lifelong learning, due to an integrated portfolio of programmes from undergraduate degrees to a wide range of additional education programmes. It helps our graduates achieve their career goals and lead companies to success. It is encouraging that many of them return to the walls of their alma mater as practising teachers, members of the programmes' academic boards, sharing their experience with new generations of professionals. We are very proud of the professional community that we have managed to form within the walls of our business school," emphasised Ivan Prostakov, First Deputy Director of the HSE Graduate School of Business.

The Top 1000 Russian Managers rating is a project of the Russian Managers Association, which has been in existence since 2001. It is the only cross-sector and multi-functional rating of professional reputation of managers in Russia. Voting is based on the principle "the best choose the best" - top managers evaluate the success of their colleagues in their areas of expertise.
