4 Things I Learned From My MBA at XIMB

With the coveted MBA degree from XIMB safely stored in the folder marked with title “Degrees, Certificates & Mark sheets”, euphoria of graduating from a reputed B School gradually diminishing and with ample time in hand which was unthinkable in a fast paced MBA program, I look back at the journey which lasted slightly less than 2 years and ask myself what exactly are my learnings from this journey. I wonder, Is it classroom learning? No. What did I learn from the heap of management books? Not much. Did the case studies make the difference? Not really. Then what is it?

Mumbai to Kochi via Bangalore: The Story Of My Summer Internship - NITIE Student's Diary

On the flight to Bangalore, twenty thousand feet above the clouds that were ten thousand feet above ground, I was mentally preparing myself for the Internship battle which was in front of me. My Internship location was Kochi, but I decided to drop by at Bharath’s (my friend from Infosys) Place in Bangalore, not because I wanted to meet him. It was more in a hope that I might get a chance to meet my Ex. For an year old Break-Up I think that was too much to ask for.

A Typical Day at IIM Raipur

Life of pi revolves around the perception of people but the same is not true about the life of a PGP. The life of a PGP student from a top notch b-school revolves around the pillars of academia named cases, assignments, presentations and quizzes. There is a sense of fear tinged with a drop of enthusiasm instilled in every moment when a deadline for any of these approaches and a ‘true PGP’ has a knack of handling the same. But, to get ready for the corporate this rigorous obstacle proves to be the foundation stone to build upon for a robust career to follow. Initiating with the day one joins a b-school the first thing that one faces is the challenge of presenting ones brilliant ideas and notions in front of a highly qualified and analytic audience. Every minute action, gesture and communication is closely observed and this creates a huge cloud of insecurity hovering over the minds of individuals. The atmospheric pressure inside closed rooms aided with projectors, collar mikes and slide changers starts getting on to one’s mind then. What makes one stand out then? What makes one appear to be comfortable and rigid as well as flexible in front of these people? It’s nothing but practice. A B-school prepares one to sustain this pressure. Starting from the night sessions where one presents in front of one’s peers without any severe repercussion on failure, to the highly evaluated ones in the term courses under the vigilant faculties, a PGP only gets better in presentations. Ranging over a diverse set of topics from different domains a PGP is forced to step out of one’s comfort zone and deliver under challenging situations. Presentations hence form an important pillar in the life of a PGP.

Gender Diversity at IIM Raipur

Gender diversity is a term referring to how different genders are represented in a relevant setting. Primarily, this term is often used to refer to females and males, though in some contexts and research the term may also refer to those who fall into non-binary categories of gender. The issue of gender representation on corporate boards of directors is one area where a need for greater gender diversity has been promoted. Employment in certain fields traditionally dominated by men, including computing, engineering, medicine, and women in science are other areas of study and interest.
