Atithi @ IBS-G We Can , We Will !

What I hear, I forget. What I see, I remember. What I do, I understand. - Kung Fu Tzu (Confucius)

Atithi is a small step is to bring more industry interface @ IBS gurgaon. Batch of 2008 intends to turn a new leaf in the history of Icfai and we believe we can make a difference ! We want to lay a foundation whereby our junior batches get exposure to industry starlwets , learn from them and be more up to date with real business dynamics. Books as they say Never Made A Man ! Have close look at the logo.It speaks a lot about the initiative

Athiti is a small step in this direction taken entirely by a small team of young, imaginative and vibrant students – who have a vision of making a difference to the learning process at the institute by bringing in greater industry interaction to enable them to get better industry understanding, exposure and networking. One of its main objectives is also to propel a culture of student initiatives at IBS-G. Our juniors should look upon batch 2008 as a initiator of change , an inspiration and a benchmark.

By now we have had three Industry Guest Lectures including an investment banker , a head of creative , of an Advertising agency as well as head of strategic operations of IOCL.

Once our college re-opens in June we have series of such industry interactions lined up. We also look up to our incoming junior batch to take this initiative forward !

It took a lot for us to implement this. It was a live project management experience for us one can say - convincing authorites , going to each section and giving presentations , netwroking with industry contacts to get good speakers .....it was fun and stress.Hope this will propel our future batches to quit obsession with marks and realise MBA is about a lot more learnings than mere books can provide.....
