Sustainability is the word that maybe has dominated the last decade and the growing need for it has made it absolutely necessary to have more conversations around it. But, what if the decision falls on you to play a vital role in making a choice as a decision-maker where better sustainability depends on your actions. As a responsible and aware leader, you not only have to always keep an eye on the profits for your business but often look at the ecosystem you are operating in too.
Investments are some of the most important things in an individual’s life. Everyone talks about making good investments, but how much do you really understand about investing? To discuss investments, market trends, and possible future trends, we have with us today Ryan Reeves, Founder & CEO of Investing City who has built a tremendous following on Twitter for his insightful content. This is a new series we’re bringing to you, shedding light on how markets function and what the possible future trends might be.
In today's News bulletin we discuss the great gift by the Indian government to its employees, a different concession. We also take a look at the Tech Giants ruling the roost across the world and how they are finally coming under the thumb of the regulatory bodies. Finally, we have a look at the pandemic and its latest effect in India.
How would you react if you were to navigate a Sales & Marketing internship from home? Now imagine that internship being part of the alternate vehicle sector, in the midst of a country-wide lockdown. This year, many companies took the difficult decision of deferring/canceling internships promised to students. However, many others like Mahindra kept their promises, allowing their interns to join them albeit virtually. It was a situation no one had foreseen, but Mahindra quickly modified the projects that were given to their interns back in January, so that they could be completed within a virtual setup.
It's undeniable that the current economic & social situation has accelerated the need for upskilling. Professionals need to constantly upskill, do it more quickly than before and keep getting better in order to remain competitive & employable. Make no mistake, this trend has been noticed across industries & job roles.
The workplace of today has changed. From newer technologies coming in everyday adapting becomes a vital part of any workplace. And for a workplace to thrive it is important to have cohesion. One such aspect where cohesion is absolutely essential is to bridge the generational gap in an organization. People from different age groups come and join a big organization. And with this diverse age group coming in a workplace, there are certain adjustments that an organization needs to make from the bottom up. As a manager, how would you make sure that this happens seamlessly? How would you make sure that every employee that is there in your organization is on the same page and respects the talent that everybody brings to the table?
Let’s get straight to the point – 2020 has been a mess, and every b-school student would agree. Rather than work round the clock in their gorgeous MBA campuses (ahh IIM Kozhikode, you beauty), students are stuck at home, sitting suited up in front of their laptops and attending corporate presentations. The question is - does an offline MBA match the rigor/fun/feel of an online MBA? I was as intrigued as you, so I reached out to the students of the best b-schools of India and asked them to share their experience of online MBA.
