Mahindra War Room – SPJIMR Chapter By Aditya Singh

Mahindra War Room – SPJIMR Chapter By Aditya Singh

In the dilapidated corridors of the boys’ hostel, I was minding my own business. Assignments. Deadlines. Food. Sports. While I was walking, my phone buzzed. Placement committee mail for launch of Mahindra War Room. “Embracing the paradoxes”, was the tagline. As if my life wasn’t paradoxical enough (low sleep due to assignments and constantly being picked by professors of the same subject in the following class), I thumbed the date on my to-do list and moved on.

Disruptive Innovation: Implementing Technology for Businesses - Kunal, IIM Visakhapatnam

Reading about Ron’s car rescuing him and Harry from the Acromantula colony in J.K. Rowling’s bestselling book “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets”, I remember wondering as a kid whether driverless cars were indeed possible in real life. However, Harry Potter, being the story of a magical world, I was quick to dismiss the idea. It might have seemed far-fetched at that point but watching Johnny cabs, the artificial intelligence powered cars in “Total Recall” and then those sleek self-driven cars in “Minority Report”, the idea  no more seems as absurd as it seemed earlier. With the advent of technology, driverless cars have now become a reality. However, autonomous cars are not the only “big thing” of this century. We are uniquely poised to witness the relentless parade of new technologies. Emerging disruptive technologies such as 4D printing, advanced genomics, routers that can recharge devices in a few miles radius, energy storage devices, Apple Pencil that can translate movements of the hand directly to a computer without needing a scan, to name a few, have the potential to disrupt the status quo and alter the way people live and work.

GST & Supply Chain - A Match Made In Heaven - Abishake, IIM Lucknow

There was a lot of hoopla around the introduction of GST bill in parliament recently. GST in simpler terms is a value added tax that will replace all the other existing indirect taxes. Currently, a product being transferred entails an excise duty, VAT, central sales tax and octroi in some cases as well. With implementation of GST, the cascading effect will be eliminated. Let us study the impact of implementation of GST on supply chain:

My Internship Experience At BASF, France - Kamal Kant Chowdhary, SJMSOM, IIT Bombay

My Internship Experience At BASF, France - Kamal Kant Chowdhary, SJMSOM, IIT Bombay

Prior to B-School, I had worked in a top apparel firm. When I began my MBA journey, I was quite perplexed about the direction in which my career should steer. Determining what job function, role or company I should aspire to during my search for a summer internship seemed like a mammoth task. The only thing I was clear about was that I wanted an entirely different work experience compared to that of my previous work experience. This summer internship opportunity was indispensable in giving me exposure to an entirely new work area and also in helping me foresee my career path post B-School.

A Bohemian Tale - A Month At JBIMS

A Bohemian Tale - A Month At JBIMS

The night of 14th July, 2016 brought a precursor to the many subsequent feelings of belongingness. An intimation from one of the seniors is all it took for the MMS batch of 2016-18 to up their antennas and start preparing themselves for the aspirational journey they had been waiting for all along. Speculations began flying around all us newbies about the nature, intensity and purpose of the induction program which was long under anticipation. Our exuberance was at its peak, and conscious efforts were being made to avoid faltering on our first interaction with the institute.
