Is The Brand Too Personalised To Expand?

Is The Brand Too Personalised To Expand?

It was another normal Sunday for me at IIM Lucknow. No classes to attend (a big relief!) and no plans for the day, I was sure that I am going to waste yet another Sunday and regret later. After several attempts, all in vain, I finally decided to go for a haircut. This was a little different as I was going out of campus after a long time.  I generally avoid wasting time going out of campus for a haircut by using the services of our very own BANSI bhaiya, who gives me a bonus head massage with a haircut that just costs 60 bucks). So I decided on Javed Habib saloon in Gomti Nagar. As soon as I entered the saloon, my enterprising aka Marwari mind wanted to know about Javed Habib. I opened up the website only to get surprised to know that not only it is a Company by the name Javed Habib Hair and Beauty Limited (‘JHHBL’) registered in India but it has operations in Singapore and London too.

Do I Deserve To Be In A B-School?

“Congratulations, You have been selected for the HRM program at XLRI Jamshedpur”....These words echoed through my mind as I stood in front of our giant Learning Center admiring its beauty. Six months in XL had passed yet it seemed like we came here yesterday, how time flew amongst all the submissions and assignments was still a mystery, amongst the hustle of lectures and the constant paucity of time, I stood there wondering, “Do I really belong here?”

A Farewell Letter To Streets Of IIM Bangalore

A Farewell Letter To Streets Of IIM Bangalore

(Every campus has a set of building, architecture or culture that defines the institution. For IIM Bangalore, it's the 'Stone Walls'; but then, there is one more special wonder in this campus, it's beautiful streets surrounded by mesmerizing greenery. This letter is a tribute to those streets, not only in IIMB but also in the other campuses as well, which shows a path to thousands of lives, literally.)

From Corporate To Campus - Learning To Unlearn At IMT Ghaziabad

From Corporate To Campus - Learning To Unlearn At IMT Ghaziabad

I was a starry-eyed kid when I joined my first job. Fresh out of college, we were a bunch of motivated millennials who were excited to work in their dream company. Setting foot for the first time in a swanky office of an MNC made us jittery. We were all wondering how we will fit in with these professionals!
