3rd in our Know Your Leaders Series is IIM Indore's Manpreet Singh Rekhi. He shares the challenges because of rapid expansion at IIM Indore and the joy of working in a team round-the-clock!
This is the second interview of the series - Know your leaders (read the previous interview here). This time we speak to Patanjali Alaiya, General Secretary, XLRI Jamshedpur.
This is the first part in a new series featuring profiles of the general secretaries (a.k.a student reps) of the institutes we feature. The General Secretary is a position of great responsibility and the idea behind featuring these students is to give an overview of the workings of the B school administration from the student side, and also to let incoming batches know their representative better.
The recent case of food poisoning at IIM Indore has been widely reported in the media and it takes me back to a basic issue I have with the way the mess system operates in most public education institutions in the country especially the IIMs. I have argued on this with a couple of professors too while I was on campus.
One of the amazing aspects about business schools in India is regional diversity. In the clamour around less number of women and lack of non-engineer perspective in the classroom, one good thing that goes completely unnoticed is the excellent regional diversity in an Indian classroom. I doubt if many countries in the world can boast of such diversity within a nation’s borders. One of the highlights of my 2-year PGP programme at IIM Indore was observing in my batch of 240 how people from different parts of India would react when faced with the same situation. It’s a great study and one learns to appreciate different kinds of behaviour.
Yeah we know you have heard it all - The Marketing campus of the country, an amazing ROI, the 1 - minute extempore and of course the DU girls. But for us at the RED BUILDING of dreams, it is about living the experience, strengthening the originality which is unique to us and as our Alumni put it ‘Going out into the world with minimum damage to the zest for life’.
