Building and implementing competitive strategies for performance in Olympics
24.01.2022
‘Availing of resources and being resourceful are the two fundamental principles on which Olympians base their performance’ is the statement our speaker and a senior Olympian Mr Parag Patil started his talk with. In his talk, he also emphasised the importance of information on competitor’s performance, trends, strategies adopted by competitors and technologies being used by other countries for the purpose of strategizing. He, thus, believes in gathering information from all the sources and then customising strategies for his athletes. So, although strategy building is a combined effort of the athlete and the respective coach, nutritionist, physiotherapist, and people in MIS come together as support system for implementation of the strategies. But, importantly in sports, he mentioned, many strategies are built and executed on the spur of the moment and that requires building mental strength.

A Session on Stress Management
06.01.2022
Dr. Deen Dayal Yadav, a Life Coach, a Stress Management Coach and an author was the speaker for this session. Before he explained to us simple and doable stress management techniques, he explained to us what physical changes stress brings in the body of a person who is stressed. These were: increase in blood pressure, aches- can be in different body parts for different people, might lead to digestive problems for some. The techniques that he stated, demonstrated, and explained were:
- Soft reset: inhale and exhale. He suggested to hold our breath for 3 seconds each.
- Hard reset: High-energy workout, exercise with weights
- Release the cause of stress before 90 seconds. He mentioned that we tend to overthink about a particular thing if we keep thinking about it continuously for 90 seconds at given point of time. Hence, it is important to release the thought before those 90 seconds are over.
One strong statement he made was: “Mind needs attention and tension.” Understanding that one is merely a dot in the entire world, entire universe reduces the attention you feed your mind with. While, using the 90-seconds release technique reduces the tension of the mind.
This session picked another high when the QnA round started.

Careers in HR : Broad views on careers in HR.
16 April 2021 from 11 AM to 12 AM
Mr. Pranam Kundap, HRBP at MediaMint gave our students an overview of job opportunities in the following functions of HR:
- Talent Acquisition
- Employee Engagement
- Payroll and Compensation
- Learning and Development
- Performance Management
Some of the vital points he put down are:
a. The new role of an HR manager as HR Business Partner calls for more ownership and playing a larger role in synergistic and contributing to all the other functions.
b. Employee Engagement does not just consist of celebrating festivals by way of activities, it has a larger scope. Employee Engagement is now seen as means to achieve the end result of a good Employee Branding.
c. Thus, Employee Branding is now considered as a niche area and has career opportunities starting with opportunities in large MNCs and slowly trickling down to other organisations as well.
d. He strongly suggested that at least HR students complete a certificate course in Payroll and Compensation. This vertical opens a lot of doors for HR students to start their careers.
e. The function of Learning and Development he said requires some years of experience and expertise to build upon as a career but, the students can join as a coordinator or as an assistant in this funtion when starting this career.
f. Working remotely as a freelance recruiter is also an option that HR students can look at.
Mr. Kundap thus gave a bird’s eye view on options available to freshers in the HR domain.

Careers in HR : Building your image as a leader and establishing your leadership in HR.
10 April 2021 from 10 AM to 11AM
Lt Col Alok spoke about how his childhood, his college life and his life in Army added to his leadership lessons. Few examples and lessons he spoke about were:
- How staying in a joint family taught him to coordinate with people of different kinds and stay in a coordinated manner as a huge joint family. He adapted this lesson in his work life to sort out the conflicts and accept differences in opinions.
- He could not get through IIT and his family could not afford to pay for donation. But that gave him the strength to achieve basis his own capabilities.
- This experience also led him to think big, take baby steps towards achieving the dream of leading a team of employees and leading an entire department. It was at this point that he had decided that he will not settle for anything lesser than a leadership position and achieved it in due course of time.
- One point he emphasised on was: Do not overemphasise your destination, enjoy your journey towards the destination.
- Every interaction he had with senior/junior/colleague taught him one lesson at a time.
- He said that, “do not get sacred to make certain decisions and believe in yourself to live by them.” ‘Unleash your potential’ is the mantra he gave us.
- He also mentioned about his Swimming lessons in Army. How he could not really swim until after 5 attempts but, took it bang on at the 6th attempt and learned it like a pro.
By sharing his early life, college life and his life in Army, he built it up to listing down the above lessons in Leadership. In his opinion, no matter in what field you are, skills and characteristics required for you to be a leader remain the same, which in his view are:
- Be prepared to take tough decisions
- Rise above the so-called failures and instead learn your lessons from them
- Believe in yourself and the decisions you take
- Enjoy the journey, destination might change with time
- Adapt quickly to the changing times
- Pick up new skills on your way up to the career ladder

Careers in Finance : How women can leverage diversity and inclusion ?
10 April 2021 from 4 PM to 5 PM
Mr. Jiigar Jhaverri started with explaining the segment of Revenue Generation and how this segment offers various career opportunities. The 1st career option he spoke about was Investment Banking and what portfolio options are available in form of Equities, Derivatives, Futures and Options, Foreign currency, and Fixed asset options. He went on to speak about wealth management and asset management subsequently. He specifically said that “someone who wants to enter Investment Banking needs to have a hang of the market, deep study and research of the companies.” At this point, he also briefly mentioned about job opportunities in Technical Analysis.
While he was answering the questions from viewers, he spoke about dignity of labour for jobs in Sales. He said that “Starting you career with a Sales profile does not mean you are not doing well, or it is not a dignified job. If job roles into Sales, Business development, Customer service are being offered by the industry then one needs to find out what excites her and take an opportunity accordingly.” One advice that he gave to all the students was to learn from every interview whether selected in that interview or not and skill yourself to fill up the gap identified by means of attempting that interview.
The last segment of his talk was about diversity and inclusion. In his opinion, managers must create a culture of inclusion and diversity in the organisation. Diversity does not mean only gender diversity, it also includes aspects of ethnicity, inclusion of LGBTQ, specially abled community. Since, all the managers across now have targets for diversity and inclusion, women now have more options to take up career opportunities that help her to manage responsibilities as a wife, mother, sister, or daughter. Part-time job opportunities, work-from-home opportunities, going in for a sabbatical and restarting the career is now possible with the initiatives under diversity being welcomed with open arms.Facebook link of the session : https://fb.watch/5P7kOx6dcL/
Careers in Marketing : Marketing in relation with people , process and technology
17 April 2021 from 10AM to 11 AM
Mr. Siddharth Sabari started with opportunities that technology offers in the field of marketing and one area that he hugely focused on was of Digital Marketing. He categorised the career options of Digital Marketing into:
a. Tracking information and usage of analytics to take marketing decisions
b. Other creative functions of writing content, creating graphics/creatives
c. Those that involve researching and usage of technology: Search Engine Optimisation, Website Development, Keywords search
d. Those that involve interacting and transacting on social media platforms: Social Media Marketing
He surely mentioned about Marketing Analytics as an option too. But, when asked about specific certificate courses that the students could do in Marketing Analytics along with MBA, he said that, currently they can learn it through Youtube videos as well. Once they enter the Corporate world, they can pick up the skills along their way on the job.
Next, he moved on to processes. He pointed out that, planning and execution of strategies involves many steps right from market research to analysing the feedback of customers. All these functions cannot be performed by a Marketing manager alone. Thus, each step in this entire process offers an opportunity. Carrying out market research, offering customer service, designing of a product/service, planning the distribution and promotion and finally implementing the strategies planned has all these opportunities ingrained.
When it came to the aspect of People, he emphasised that interaction with customers is central to marketing. Thus, roles of Marketing Communication, Customer Service Executive, Focused Customer Group interviews and a few other aspects of marketing research come under the ‘People’ aspect.Facebook link of the session : https://fb.watch/5P7fDc1XZc/
Careers in Marketing : Mapping skills to career opportunities in Marketing

Mr. Ankit Gupta, a Marketing Consultant in his talk mentioned that to be successful in a Marketing job/ careera person should be creative, patient, a good communicator, a solution-provider and very good at networking with people.
He urged all the students to have an account on LinkedIn and build a network of their own. In his opinion, “it is the responsibility of a student to prepare herself for a career and find an opportunity suitable to her career objective.” To do this, LinkedIn proves to be a great platform. When we asked him, how does his work life as a consultant differ from his work life when he was into a job, he said that “Being a consultant requires more discipline and networking. It is important to reach out to people and tell them about your services.” He was of the strong opinion that a job role in Sales should be taken up enthusiastically since, a job in Sales makes one more courageous, open to new ideas and a trouble-shooter.Facebook link of the session : https://fb.watch/5P7j04V812/

Careers in Defence
26 August 2020
The degree of MBA as is conventionally misunderstood does not only prepare students to take up a corporate job or become an entrepreneur but has a wide scope to let a student apply her knowledge in myriad of fields. Thus in our endeavour to clarify this misunderstanding and to guide our students with the career they can build after they complete their MBA, we organised a Webinar on ‘Careers in Defence.’ Our Resource person for this webinar was Maj Deepa Chandrasekaran, an MBA herself and a Defence officer granted permanent commission by President of India. In this webinar, she first spoke of the eligibility for various positions in Defence and then went on to explaining the technicalities of every round that a candidate needs to go through. In her address, she also shared many tips and tricks to successfully navigate through each round and what were her experiences as well as strategies when she successfully attempted all these rounds. None the less, she stated the expectations out of a candidate while he/she is being tested for a particular position. The Webainar ended with a short Question and Answer round with her.
