Every day, I get at least one e-mail asking me how someone could become a political consultant. While it is not possible to answer every e-mail to everyone's satisfaction, a short article on the industry could perhaps give a good understanding of what the industry is all about and help take decisions that suits one's career.
Gone are the days when you could aspire to rent only cars and homes with a few clicks on your laptop in India. Over the last 2 years, online rental marketplaces of all sorts have sprung up along with the e-commerce boom. Furniture, books, jewellery, accessories, apparel – You name it and you can rent it! Online rental sites are trending across the globe and had been conceptualized as early as 2004 with websites like Bag Borrow or Steal springing up in USA.
Hey there folks! I am Manan, enrolled in PGP from Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode, and class of 2017. I have been going to the gym and working out for nearly 4 years now and a lot of people, yeah lots of people ask me why do I workout everyday, how come I get time amongst bustling MBA schedule, why do you compromise on your lectures etc. etc. And then there are skeptic buffoons who say things that would always raise an eyebrow and try to pull you down. “Bro you are taking lots of supplements right?” “Bhai go natural. That’s the best”, “ “Bro how come you don’t have abs, you have been working out for so long” and blah blah… You get the point right?
Every MBA aspirant across the globe would have, at some point of time in her/his MBA application preparation, been exposed to the argument that exists about the utility of the MBA itself, notwithstanding its various forms (full-time/part-time, weekend, distant, etc). Return on Investment is now a standard ranking parameter for major listings like the ones prepared by FT, Forbes and so on. While the frameworks for evaluation would vary, my personal take on this is that there are MBAs and there are MBAs. While it is possible to zoom into certain aspects of aspiration like the desire to work in a certain geography and hence pick a particular school which acts as a gateway, there are some schools and some programs you can never go wrong with choosing. As the PGPX batch of 2016~17 enters into its second term, we are all unanimous in our belief that the PGPX is one such program.
Who have you given the authority? The authority to tell you that you are okay or even great?
In my younger or I should rather say my more vulnerable years, my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. He said
