In this second part of Manishi’s interview, he talks about his early life, from growing up in small-town Uttarakhand, to making it to IIM Ahmedabad. He says that having an English medium education early in life was in fact an advantage, which has helped him throughout his career. Later, for higher education, he had to live by himself in Dehradun. From IIT BHU to L&T, to finally IIM Ahmedabad, Manishi’s journey truly is inspiring and insightful.  

  Talking about his IIM Ahmedabad experience, he confesses to not having made the most of his time there. He says that he was a mere child, freshly graduated from engineering, and he did not recognise the value of the place he was in. However, that doesn’t mean that he did not have his share of experiences. He had participated in extracurricular activities quite a lot, having worked with the likes of Kenneth Serrao. In fact, it was one of these connections he made during his time in IIM A, which kickstarted his journey with luxury marketing. If you’re interested in finding out more about b school life and how it can help you in your career, this video is certainly for you!
