- Is your profile suitable for ISB? Yes, your profile seems to suit the diversified work experience that ISB looks for.
- What GMAT score range should I target to increases my chances of admission? any score above 700 should be suitable to get you an interview call
- Are there steps I should be considering to present myself better? Since your role is more of an influencer kind of role, maybe strengthen your profile in terms of initiatives you took during your work experience and what other ideas you might have had that perhaps you couldnt implement due to some internal/external challenges
- Any other schools I should target to enable me make this transition? For a management role after substantial experience in education, i think you can target any of the edtech firms like Byjus/Whitehat Jr since edtech is really the right industry for you looking at your current work experience. It is also perhaps the role you might be aiming after an ISB degree. Other schools are really any other Bschool in the country, but you might also wish to consider schools like TISS who have a strong NGO connect and might benefit/look for someone with your ed experience.
- Should I consider undertaking Coursera courses on Management to increase my chances? Not really... I dont think that carries any benefit. Might as well look at strengthening your profile by preparing your interview better.

I have read your post and I think you have a very descent profile. Your admission is now depend upon the GMAT score, if you score better you have a good chance to get selected. I am also applying to ISB. I hope we meet each other at ISB.
Wish you luck.
Wish you luck.
