This is a continuation of our Special Ones series. After interviews with toppers at IIFT, JBIMS, IIM Kozhikode, FMS Delhi, XLRI Jamshedpur, IIM Bangalore and IIM Calcutta, we turn our focus to WIMWI. Intense competition makes it really really difficult to top at IIM Ahmedabad. After interviews with stars like Ashima Setia, Akarsh Shrivastava and Abhinav Gupta, we now have an interview with Rahul Agarwal.
In today’s world, ‘talent’ & ‘versatility’ are the two secret ingredients of a successful career. The diversity of your interests & hobbies says a lot about you & to a certain extent, gives you that much-needed edge over your peers. Rahul Thanugula, a talented sketcher, an expert in playing different musical instruments & an occasional mimic explains how an artistic inclination in life always helps.
The Ultimate Warriors’ League (UWL) is IIFT’s annual sports extravaganza, which was launched with full fervor for its seventh season with the tagline ‘Compete. Conquer. Celebrate.’ on October 31, 2014 by the Sports Committee, and the subsequently selected Organising Committee. On the lines of IPL, this year’s UWL, retained its earlier attractions of having firstly franchise biddings, in which three teams were grabbed by second year students, while the first year students bought one. The teams, erstwhile, were named Southern Stallions, Aryan Juggernauts, Eastern Gladiators, Mumbai Hawks. This was followed by the teams’ individual selection of their brand managers and consultants. November 2, a wintry foggy night could hardly freeze the bubbling excitement in the bloodstreams of players, as team owners, brand managers and consultants sat overnight post their grueling MBA schedule by day for an all-nighter (just for the record, it went from 12:30 am to 8:45 am), full of tension (and tears), stirring up cigarette smoke and controversies in the still air to bid for players to form their respective teams for a variety of sports and games, viz. cricket, volleyball, throw-ball, basketball, futsal, track racing, chess, poker, darts, badminton, tug of war, sports quiz. The brand managers sat with their respective owners to decide on branding strategies, to ensure their team gets the maximum brand recall and attention.
The clocks simply don’t stop ticking at XLRI Jamshedpur, especially when the work at hand involves putting together one of India’s biggest management festivals. Ensemble 2014 is XLRI’s flagship annual business summit and as always, boasts of some major names and events this year.
XLRI - Xavier School of Management, the premier B-School in India in association with RPG Enterprises hosted one of its biggest events of the year ‘Synergy 2014’ – The 1th Edition of its National Annual Business Conclave on November 6 and 7 that brought together celebrated industry leaders, academicians and students on a common platform.
“With the beginning of a new chapter at DSE, my journey of self-improvement continues. Getting good news on the very first day about the conversion from MIB to MBA-IB was overwhelming. Being here brings some familiar feelings which tell me that it is going to be a remarkable and memorable part of my journey. Thanks to those ice-breaking sessions, I have met a lot of people and enjoyed doing tasks with them. It’s been only two weeks and I have made very good friends here. I am happy to find that everybody has got a unique quality. Lot of things to learn and an opportunity ground to work. Going through the hectic schedule of classes, induction and selection processes of various committees and cells was filled with mixed emotions of excitement and jitters. But hats off to seniors for their support and helping us to kick start our journey at DSE.
