A New Life - MDI

A New Life - MDI

The most memorable experience I had in MDI was the elections for choosing class representatives. I was one of the four persons who contested the elections. Also, I was the last person to join the race. This was because I was not sure as to whether I will be able to manage the responsibilities of the class representative and my academics together. However, I was motivated by my senior who had held the same position in the previous year. She mentioned that even though there were certain challenges but at the same time the tasks involved makes a person ready for a management position because it involves usage of managerial communication and soft skills. It is a position which requires an application and acquiring of various skills such as time management, attentiveness, availability and accessibility. Her guidance cleared all my doubts and affirmed my stance of contesting. Also, I realised that it was an opportunity to be a part of the most integrated network of our college. That is, the network of students formed by the Student Committee, the Placement Cell and rest of the batch. The job also requires facilitation of communication between the students, the Administrative Office and professors.

Memories At MDI

Memories At MDI

To write about a few thoughts about MDI after taking a break from finishing assignments, discussing group case studies, interacting with industry leaders and playing football, today, I realized that I have been at MDI for just over a month now. If I simply count the number of activities I have undertaken during these 30 days at MDI, it would seem like a year had passed! My first month at the MDI has been a great opportunity to holistically reflect on management practices with each passing day giving me a rich and memorable experience. More importantly, it’s also a journey of self-awareness - having the chance to reflect and to understand not just my own strengths and how I can best flex my leadership style in different groups, but also where my weaknesses are and how I can work with others who have complementary strengths.

Uniqueness Of MDI

Uniqueness Of MDI

The word ‘unique’ in general describes something which is one of its kind. However, I would like to put it more like something particularly remarkable about my fellow mates, faculty and our campus. The uniqueness of our campus lies in the unique mix inherent in its students and faculty and the strong bond that we share amongst us. Student here comes from diverse background, carrying and sharing their culture, experiences and learnings with them, which they exchange with each other for mutual benefit. Not so long back, when Professor Neera Jain was conducting a classroom session on Business Communication, she invited each of us to share a story of our own within a few minutes and also explain our learnings from them at the end. And as it began, we discovered a plethora of varied experiences and learnings. Several layers of emotions and outlooks unfolded before us, one by one, going deep making us realise how we are a small part of a big world; strong yet connected and powerful.

It was 13th June 2018, when I flew from Ahmedabad to Delhi, with lots of dreams and excitement, to my new journey. For whole year it was a tough situation to manage between busy work schedule and aspiration to excel in CAT. There was a kind of proud feeling that I did make through.

A New Chapter In Life - MDI

The journey has been only one month long but full of excitement. Each and every moment in MDI has been eventful until now. I came to the beautiful campus on 14th June full of nervous excitement. And from the next day onwards, there has been no relaxation, no more resting on your previous achievements or your brilliant score in CAT. There have been so many events which have been full of memories in the past one month. But, the moment which stands out is the sports competition KOK which has helped me challenge the barriers in my mind.

Midnight Rush - MDI

It was 6.24 in the morning. I stepped down at Nizamuddin Terminus, Delhi. The weather was awesome. I booked a cab to MDI Gurgaon. Driver was playing a Punjabi song and I am talked to him constantly throughout the 1-hour ride. And then appeared the MDI Gate. It reminded me of my B tech campus, the campus full of greenery.
