How MDI Has Changed My Life!

How MDI Has Changed My Life!

People never seem to reveal a lot about what happened in their MBA programmes when asked. Other than the usual tiny tidbits & the proverbial “it’s something you need to experience” & “those were the best 2 years of my life”, there’s not really a lot they tell you before going on a nostalgia trip in their minds, reminiscing about the golden days.

Apart from the typical 20 somethings’ mind muddled with, in the words of CS Lewis, “a zoo of lusts, a bedlam of ambitions, a nursery of fears, a harem of fondled hatreds”, I was pretty much a clean slate when I came here.
