“Look Deeply And You Shall Know, Because You Are Not Jon Snow” - Reasons Why You Should Join IIM Raipur

When I came to know of the so called “New IIMs” in 2009, I too was happy with the government's enthusiasm for opening up new institutions. Surely, a great move to provide quality education to a larger sect of the country. No one should be denied a chance to study from a prestigious brand like an ‘IIM’ or an ‘IIT’ just because there are limited seats in the existing ones because of infrastructural constraints. A lot of pessimistic people ridiculed the newly opened IIMs by calling them “Baby IIMs”. I am sure there were similar sorts of people who ridiculed a newly opened college in 1961 by comparing it with the “Top” Universities in India. Oh! It was IIM-A. Well, one thing is certain, babies do grow and sooner than you think.

The Brand IIM – Yes That Still Counts

If we say now the brand has diluted and there are n number of IITs and IIMs, so no point going to IIMs other than the older ones. I would say - NO. I will share my story, a very recent one. This happened while I had to meet some of the best Pharma companies in the country and more importantly when I got the opportunity to meet an Assistant Central Drug Controller of India(Central Authority, which has rights to cancel, sanction and inspect any Pharma facility in the country) UPSC qualified and PhD in Pharma. I cannot thank this person enough for two reasons. One is giving me more than 2 hours from his schedule just for my queries. And second for helping me pass the message that gone are the days when government officials were paper laden offices, with a remote AC and cranky PCs. This office was like a board room, completely westernised, and to my surprise minimal papers and files, fluency in English as good as any corporate. I asked him, I do not see any paper work. He started his PC and I could see how almost everything was on email, share point and properly sorted with of course, passwords.

The mysterious disappearance of the EgyptAir Flight 804 flying from Paris to Cairo has once again brought into focus the issue of air safety.   With 66 passengers and crew members on board this is a huge tragedy.  Not withstanding the fact that air travel is one of the safest modes of travel, recent incidents have shaken passenger confidence to the core.

Is LinkedIn Premium Worth The Subscription

If you're on LinkedIn, (you must be because you're looking at this!) you've definitely got one of those emails offering you a trial of LinkedIn Premium. I didn't really jump at it because I was apprehensive about providing credit card information. But one fine day, I decided to go ahead. I used one of my cards that would expire soon, and signed up. Yeah, you can call me a little paranoid about signing blank checks. They promised to remind me before my card would be charged. I didn't take any chances and set up my own reminder. To be fair, they did send an email to ask if I was continuing. But I had already cancelled by then.

The Art Of Living The Future

For most people, the future is something that comes pretty much on its own. But, for a select few, the future is something they make of the present. If you wonder what that means, it does not refer to working hard in the present to achieve your life goals in the future. What it refers to is the practice of visualizing your future, as you want it to be in such detail and with so much regularity that you can practically live in the future while you are in the present. This may sound strange and like a daydream. But, there is nothing strange about it.
