How MBA Is Actually An Art

How MBA Is Actually An Art

Every 20th student in India goes through several stages emotionally, physically and professionally. As our generation grapples with unprecedented levels of confusion, thanks to an increasingly open and connected world and avenues that were never available to our parents in their time, an MBA is perhaps an option that falls under the category of “safe”, “steady” and “stable”. An MBA does not seem to hold the promise of a thrill, nor the heady feeling of any of the arts. After all, what would former (more often than not, in India) engineers, accountants etc. know or understand anything about art?

Student Exchange Program - IIM Udaipur Student's Perspective

What Does It Take To Organise A TEDx Event In Your College

Four years back, I was watching a TED Talk with my friend as part of my classwork. That was the day when we wanted to know how one day we, too, can attend the TED conference. Well, we were surprised to know that TED grants licenses to individuals to organise similar events called as TEDx, where x = an independently organized TED Event.
