Durga Puja is a festival which represents Bengal, especially Kolkata during which a large number of population is seen on the roads celebrating the festival with joy and happiness. It’s what everyone in Bengal awaits for and takes pride of. Behind every successful work, there lies behind a great and enormous effort which all managers should learn. Few points which managers can learn are:  Planning: This is an important task to learn during Durga Puja. Decisions regarding how much time would be needed for preparation, how much labour is required, the decision regarding everything related to the making of Pandal is a huge task. As a manager, learning this skill so that work can be done in the right way is essential.  Financials: Durga Puja involves a huge requirement of funds. Therefore, the way members of all puja pandal arrange their finance is a great way to learn financial management by managers.  Idea generation: For every manager to be successful in their career, idea generation is very important, as this differentiates them from others. Durga puja involves great idea generation. Therefore we see how each pandal is different from one another and beautiful it is which attracts a huge amount of population.  Management of people: The most important task to learn from Durga puja is the management of crowd. We see a huge population on the roads of Kolkata to visit pandals. If not properly coordinated there can be a huge amount of loss. But with efforts of Kolkata police, club member’s crowd is controlled to a great extent. Durga Puja is not just a festival, it’s an emotion to which every citizen of West Bengal is connected. It not only brings joy but also teaches great lessons in life.
