One of the other suggestions that Kenneth had for all the participants was to add depth to their work. To truly stand out one should go beyond the obvious. And for that he had one main suggestion - Reading.
"I think the fact that you guys read InsideIIM already puts you ahead of 99% of the junta out there. Now build up on that and go deeper into subjects and issues of your liking. Just keep reading. The best part is that the competition is so weak around you. Most people will not read and hence if you do you will easily outshine them."
One of the other participants Harshad was from a start-up in Cyber Security and Cloud Computing. Ken and Harshad had an interesting discussion on who their real competitors were. Since the start-up was into cyber security for the android platform, Ken's view was that their biggest competition was Google itself!
Later, the discussion went to how we could improve InsideIIM further and what the participants as users would like to see. There was interesting feedback which was noted by the InsideIIM team. There was also discussion on the new Admissions section Final Admit and how aspirants can make maximum use of that section. The participants also gave some interesting ideas for better user engagement and a wider reach.
