My campus is one of the most unique campuses a B-School can have. Situated on the outskirts of Rau, a small industrial town in Indore, the campus gazes upon the city of Indore from a magnificent hill. Resources are in plenty, ranging from 2 full sized professional gyms, an Olympic sized pool to amazing classrooms and hostels. The entire first year of my MBA had too little of time to explore the entire campus as there was always a new shortcut or a hidden passage to surprise you. After spending around 12 months here I can surely say that there is much more to explore and too little time. One of the most memorable experiences I had was my OB class in the second trimester. The class was discussing a famous case on ethics when a group of street actors burst on the scene and took the entire class by surprise. The actors were trying to simulate a situation in the case and did a wonderful job. We were taken aback initially but slowly realized that our professors had specially arranged for a renowned group of actors from Bhopal to act out the parts in the case which involved a massive protest outside a CEOs office. I realized then that teaching is much more than classroom learning and how the unique method of making us learn how to approach the problem instead of the actual solution is much more effective and useful. Apart from the various intricacies, the thing that is probably most unique about Indore is how all of the stakeholders starting from students and professors to the wonderful support staff stay together as a big joint family. People understand each other and make sure that you spend the most amazing time of your life surrounded by a solid support network.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
The ABG Company that I want to work for is Idea because of the project that I did there as part of my Industry Interface program. The program involved a project for the HR department that dealt with Changing L&D with Technology & Digitization where I designed and implemented strategies to reach a 100% target usage of the digital learning platforms at Idea. The project was a success and I had the chance to interact with leadership stalwarts and see firsthand the extreme dedication with which they work hence Idea is the ideal place where I want to begin my career.
