4 Things Which Prove That IIMs Are Much More Than Just Placement Agencies

4 Things Which Prove That IIMs Are Much More Than Just Placement Agencies

“My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.” Nothing and no one can question the veracity of this beautiful quote by Desmond Tutu. Not even IIMs. Yes! Much to the surprise of many who follow a school of thought according to which all the IIMs are stamped nothing more than a factory of producing hundreds of job-ready (read employable) candidates on a yearly basis.

The Dark Side Of Clubs And Committee Selections At IIM

Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.

Lock, Stock And Barrel - Do Not Give Up

Lock, Stock And Barrel - Do Not Give Up

There is an age old saying – “Man proposes, God disposes”. People say that one can never make the perfect plan, that no matter how meticulous you are something or the other is always bound to go wrong. To quote Linkin Park, ‘In the end, it doesn’t even matter’. However, no one ever talks about what to do after that happens, how to deal with the problem and come up with a solution. The simple reason for this is that there is no ‘right’ answer to that. The sheer magnitude and the complexity of every possible thing that can go awry is such a humongous number that even the human mind bows before it. The number of moves one can make in a game of chess after the first six moves stand at a staggering nine million. And life is much more complex than a game of chess.
