Know your leaders - Apoorv Sharma (Vice President, NITIE)

The Vice President of the batch of PGDIM at NITIE, is the student elected representative to the B-school administration. He/She is involved in major decisions taken by the administration, with the responsibility of presenting the students’ views and opinions. He is therefore also the SPOC for the students for any issues and suggestions they want taken to the administration and faculty. There are several other responsibilities of the VP, and is one of the most coveted positions in the batch.

“Quit More, Quit Often” - Prateek Panda - Entrepreneurship at SPJIMR

A business school basically serves to ready you for a career in management and fast tracks your career in the corporate world by providing you with the perfect launch pad. So whether it is the perfect investment banking opportunity or a sales stint in an FMCG, whether it a Leadership development programme in your dream company or a product development role at a leading tech startup- a business school offers you with an opportunity to achieve your target. What one can safely conclude from here is that management education readies you to work in the capacity of an employee. But off late we have been seeing a trend where business schools are nurturing serious entrepreneurs intent on being the employer of choice rather than an employee of possible choice.

Food, Karma and Regional Nights @XLRI  - Reflections of an Idle Mind!

Food, Karma and Regional Nights @XLRI - Reflections of an Idle Mind!

Charles De Gaulle once very famously questioned, “How can you govern a country which has 246 varieties of cheese?”-a gastronomically and politically loaded question. Something very similar can be said in the context of India. And when you are in a meritocratic B-school like XLRI, you experience a mini-India with representatives from all states, in a student body of less than 600. In reference to the college, I take the liberty of framing a similar question, “How do you homogenize a student body that comes from 28 states and speaks multitudes of different languages?”
