As if that weren’t enough, Opsession also saw yet another exciting edition of the Annual Operations Management Conclave, “Ops-Talks 2020”, conducted on the 12th of December, 2020. The conclave was graced by the presence of our Keynote Speaker, Mr. Satyashri Mohanty, the Founder Director of Vector Consulting Group, who talked about the importance of “Building Supply Chain Agility to thrive in VUCA World”. It was followed by two panel discussions, one on the topic “Building a Resilient Supply Chain” by Mr. Dheeraj Shah from TCS, Mr. Ponraj Periswami from Wahl Clipper Corporation, Mr. Brish Ban Vaidya from Uber, and Mr. Amol Nagar from GE Aviation; and “Driving Sustainable Operational Excellence” by Dr. Rakesh Sinha from Reflexive Supply Chain Solutions, and Mr. Ashish Mendiratta from Chamber of Visionary Supply Chain Leaders. Both panel discussions were facilitated by the Operations Management faculty of MDI Gurgaon – Dr. Rajesh K. Singh, Dr. Anupama Prashar, and Dr. Manoj Kumar Srivastava. The Annual Operations Magazine, “OpStakes 2020”, was also launched at the conclave in the presence of industry stalwarts, as well as all the business school students and corporate professionals in the audience.
In order to keep the students engaged in the world of Operations and Supply Chain Management, Team Opsession has adopted a “Fun with Learning” approach and conducted SCOPS Quiz 1.0 in the month of November. The launch of SCOPS Quiz 2.0 is planned for 2021. The quiz aims to increase the knowledge base of students whilst awarding prizes to the best performer. OpsLite 2020, a series of 26 knowledge-sharing posts, where one Ops-related word or phrase starting with each letter of the English alphabet is explained in brief, with the aid of interesting infographic. Compendia and Newsletters are frequently updated and shared among the students of MDI Gurgaon so as to provide all the important news and innovations in the field of Supply Chain and Operations in a timely, brief package.
Although the year draws to a close, a new year stands poised to allow us to chart a new course while adjusting to new norms in the current and post-COVID world. The club will be looking at new horizons while striving to bring more opportunities for any student who’s interested, with the help of Live Projects and Guest Lecture series in the field of Operations and Supply Chain Management. Also in the pipeline are various forms of infotainment, such as “Term of the day”, and “Did You Know?”, both of which are likely to be launched in 2021.
Opsession, keeping its core tenet of sharing knowledge by coming together, looks forward to collaborating with other business schools and corporate partners on projects that can help increase the acumen of students who will, one day, become the movers and planners of the world.
