Abhyudaya - Making A Difference - SPJIMR

There is often a paradox involved with learning. The more you learn, the lesser you feel that you know. As your learning keeps increasing, so does your humility. You know, what you know not of. And that is the greatest gift to the learner; the ability to know what you don’t know. And this result is something which comes to you in your absolutely open state of mind.

So one puts off choosing a fig for as long as possible, as they dry up and fall to the ground, one after the other.

What Investment Banking Is All About

Deal making is akin to a magic trick. Being an investment banker for better part of my post MBA life, I have participated in and witnessed many such conjurings. M&A transactions are intricate and tedious, sometimes taking well over two years to culminate. It is in the best interest of all the stakeholders to close the deal as quickly as possible.

And as with all great magic tricks, there are three major acts — the Pledge, the Turn and the Prestige.

Are you freaking crazy?” I had the same feeling at first, although I could feel a prick within.
