In ‘Tattvabodha’, which is a part of the much awaited 3-day extravaganza, one gets a chance to hear industry leaders who are pioneers in their respective fields, as they dissect contemporary issues in the field of business or HR.
The numerous case study competitions offered by Manthan give aspiring business leaders a chance to solve live challenges and assess them in diverse domains. While ConsulTISS beckons the consultant within students, Dakshya lures out the IR manager out of participants, whereas Srijan appeals to the HR manager within oneself. For people who are not knackered by a multitude of surprise quizzes which are part of one’s curriculum, Jigyasa offers a business quizzing event. The Campus Leadership Hunt, Udghosh, provides the opportunity to inculcate the leader within oneself who can work beyond the goal of profit-making and towards a sustainable future.
Amidst all these intense competitions, Antaraagini acts as a source of conviviality, as one witnesses a medley of performances cutting across all areas of performing arts. Flea Market adds to the carnivalesque disposition at TISS as one explores food and artefacts from diverse vendors.
Manthan has had the opportunity to host pioneering men and women in their respective fields like Swara Bhaskar, Yash Mahadik, Boman Irani, Devdutt Patnaik, Gurcharan Das, Capt. Gopinath, Devdutt Patnaik, Pallav Patankar, Supriya Goswami, Azim Premji, Harsh Mariwala, Arun Maira. In 2016 it had the pleasure of hosting Arunachalam Muruganantham who is famously known as the Padman. He talked about his journey from being ostracised by his community to being listed among 100 Most Influential People in the World by Forbes and receiving the Padma Shri, India’s fourth highest civilian honour in 2016.
Manthan has been graced by captivating performances by artists like Taufiq Qureshi & Kavita Seth. Accounts of a transformed convention centre during Kavita Seth’s performance, a place primarily associated with memories of sleep during tedious foundation course lectures, makes one enthusiastically look forward to 9th-11th February, Manthan 2018.
