For all MBA / PGDM aspirants. Take your own initiative and create the difference.

Hello and Good Morning to all MBA aspirants.

I am associated with Unitedworld School of Business and Unitedworld group/ Karnavati University - Kolkata and Ahmedabad. From my experience of 18 years in education sector and overall 27 years of working experience in Private sector, the following are my advises for the future MBA aspirants - 


1. Instead of emphasizing too much on placements, check the background of the faculty resources of any B School and also the pedagogy and case studies, researches, Corporate guest lectures, Industry visits and live projects. Ultimately your future depends on the transformation you gain in 2 yrs while studying MBA and this transformation depends on the education which will strengthen your foundation.

2. Focus on your communication skill. Apart from the efforts taken by the B Schools, take your own initiative to improve your communication skills. Develop regular writing habits on any topic which will help you to improve your phrasing of long sentences and vocubulary. Then close the door and stand infront of a mirror and try to speak to your own image on that topic for 10 mins. This helps you to develop your body language and spontaneous speaking ability. Practice this daily for one hour. 

3. Develop your outer knowledge. Read newspapers, business magazines,English news channels and keep yourself updated about the changes happening in Business and Political world and increase your knowledge about the current affairs. Keep yourself updated about the business trends and changes happening in the industry. This will help you to create a different pedigree for yourself when you appear for the campus interviews. More you increase your outer knowledge, more you boost up your confidence level which will shape up right attitude within you. Remember, the interviewers prefer fresh MBA graduates with right attitude and knowledge.

4. Attend your classes regularly and allow yourself to be used like a pencil by the faculty resources. They will sharpen you and convert you from a raw material to a finished product for Corporate. Have trust on your faculty resources.

5. Most importantly, focus more on job profile than the salary part. Remember that MBA for any Management Education aspirant is a 4 years curriculam. The first 2 years you spend in your college and then next 2 years you have to sustain in the Corporate world with your first placement. There you have to unlearn whatever you learned in the BSchool and start afresh with the handling of the real obstacles you face in the Corporate world. Therefore you need a suitable job profile keeping in consideration about your internal attributes and limitations, so that you get time to learn and sustain in your first job.

6. I will conclude by saying that every B School tries their level best to make you their Brand Ambassador with a suitable placement. But ultimately you have to take your own initiatives to create the difference with others and win in the competitive world. It's a two way traffic always. 

Thanks for your patient reading. Hope the above mentioned points will guide you towards success.

How I wonder what you are ?

The blinking stars neighbouring the moon are our greatest friends condoling the concealed sorrows of our day to day life. If you are suffering from depression or loneliness, reach your rooftop in a full moon night or lie down in a lonely sea beach engulfed with the bright rays of moon and watch towards the twinkling stars far away. Close your eyes for a while and think about the person you are missing in your life and then open your eyes and stare at the stars miles away. The flickering stars, as if whispering to your ears about the whereabouts of your love and speaking to your heart that all is well. Just the way, the moon alone keeps shining everynight besieged by the glimmering stars signifying the shimmering hopes needed for our survival in this world, we need to smile in our small journey of life creating a sky with millions of stars glinting optimism inspite of the flowing sorrows. You need a big heart to be a well wisher for a person who walked away from you. But the

Nature births raindrops so that our souls can grow. Rain is the greatest therapy of our mind and soul.

Rain is the greatest gift of God which creates a poetry in our soul and a perfect lullaby to put away all frustrations and sleep well in peace . The continuous rhythm and melody of pitter patter drops of rain perhaps produces a sound therapy which suppresses all our senses and produces a comfort level by removing all the disturbing thoughts from our mind, bringing the much necessary drowsiness which helps us to sleep well with a cool mind. The constant croaking of frogs throughout the rainy night just helps to maintain the faded rhythm of noise of the diminishing rain drops and maintains the continuity of the soothing melody of rain inside our brain.  Another best way to remove your depression is to get drenched in rain. If you are surviving with a tired soul and with too many pains of life, just feel the rain and the best way to feel the rain is by getting wet with the cold raindrops. The splattering raindrops on your eyes, nose and face will remove all sha

That first drop of rain on my eyelid at Mussoorie.

Image
Cool breeze blowing in a dark, cloudy, stormy Mussoorie evening and I stare at the sky above the mountains to see the birds flying back home with their usual chirping. Suddenly a drop of rain falls into my eyelid and creates a hazy vision of Mussoorie Mall road. And then a sudden glimpse of someone after 30 years !!!!  Before I could take another look at her,  the downpour and the reflections on the rainy streets drove me back to the flashbacks of waiting outside the school gate in those rainy afternoons, covering my face beneath an umbrella after school hours to get a sight of her. We never had the scope to express our love so easily like we do today through sms or messengers. The prolonged wait at the bus shelter after school hours, the weekend opportunity to give her the reply through hand written letters and getting a new reply after a week, few magical touches of her fingers, getting her rare glimpse from the lonely roof top or her sudden glance through window panes we
