What Makes a Good B-School

What Makes a Good B-School

Have you ever wondered why B-schools can’t be like engineering colleges, teaching students how to technically solve business complexities? Or why are B-schools different from medical schools, teaching people proven remedies and prescriptions that work 100%? The nature of life in business is completely unpredictable. One doesn’t realise any clear relationship between intervention and outcome… did your idea succeed or were you just lucky with the stars… did the meeting go down well or were the others unable to pull you down… etc etc. Here we have a point to note down – nothing in business is black or white, all are shades of grey.

Kaptains of IIM Kozhikode - Somya Barpanda- the Inquisitive Orator

B-Schools house an eclectic mixture of people ranging from different disciplines, diverse age-groups, varied regions of the country who harbour different mind sets and aspirations in life. There are some who are extremely passionate about sports, some others who if they would not have been in a B-School, would definitely have been one of India’s most famous rock bands’ lead singers. And then we also have one rare species of people who with their impeccable interrogation skills leave one and all, spellbound. In our series of Kaptains of IIM Kozhikode, we talk about Somya Barpanda from IIM Kozhikode – a cycling enthusiast, a skilful painter, a voracious reader, a fervid debater, an ABG scholar and above all, a person who feels that if curiosity killed the cat, it was the satisfaction that brought it back. Here is what she has to say about all this.
