Unbroken record of success is something, very few people achieve. And, if they say they have, then in all probability they have not shared their failures. The fact is, we all have our share of success and failure.
It was the summer of 2015; I was finally a graduate. To top that off, I had job offers from 3 IT giants of the world. Life seemed an easy ride back then. Days were spent sleeping and nights on 'Gametracker'. But one evening changed it all. The 'Eat Sleep Game Repeat' mode transformed to 'Dream Study Achieve' mode. That one question of my mother "Why so satisfied already" rattled me up and changed my life forever. Her words got so deeply entrenched in me that I believe they will echo in my ears till I kick the bucket. I decided to make it big and after thorough self-introspection, set off for one of the most challenging hunts ever-Hunting the CAT.
John Stumpf got added to the list of CEOs over the last year who have pleaded to ignorance to scams happening in their organisations right under their nose. Showing that CEOs seem to be getting away almost anything. In a sense, they seem to be increasingly protected from any wrongdoing in their own organisations.
This is the 8th episode of Summer Time Madness in association with Reliance Industries Limited.
On Tuesday, a group of five men and one woman will decide whether the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) should cut its policy rate—a decision which had all along been the prerogative of one person: the RBI governor. Indeed, there’s been a technical advisory committee (TAC) since June 2009 to give inputs for policy-making but, unlike the six-member monetary policy committee (MPC), it did not have statutory status and hence the governor was under no obligation to accept its suggestions. On most occasions in the past seven years, the RBI has not done what most members of TAC have wanted it to do.
Introducing the first of its kind, the Department of Management Studies, IIT Delhi organized Faculty Fun Games - F2G’16 - on 2nd October to ingrain a sportive vigor in our faculty members and proffer them with a venue to relive their glorious youthful heydays. The buzz of anticipation for the turn out of our venerate and esteemed IITian professors for such an event was tremendous. Our impressive faculty members, like always, startled the audience by showing up in huge numbers with a sportsmanship temper and an exuding winning streak.
Exactly two years back, on 2nd October, 2014, Shri Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, launched the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (SBA), a mass movement for cleanliness. Mr. Modi, on the occasion said that, “A clean India would be the best tribute India could pay to Mahatma Gandhi on his 150th birth anniversary in 2019.” While Mr. Modi’s campaign celebrates the Mahatma’s birth anniversary by urging Indians to clean their toilets, households, offices, streets, villages and cities, the United Nations observes the day as the International Day of Nonviolence. Although these are just commemorations uniting the man with his ideals, over the years Mahatma Gandhi has emerged as a brand and has indeed appeared in several ad campaigns.
