WE PREPARE OUR STUDENTS FOR RESILIENCE

Q/ What are the trends you have observed in management education, both in India and globally?

A/ All businesses are going through major transformation or have already gone through transformation. So the workplace environment is completely new and, as a leading management school, we have to keep a track of it and prepare our students for that kind of an environment. Since we are creating future leaders, we should prepare the students to be capable enough to adopt [changing] technology quickly. They should also know how technology will transform and how the transformation will help.

To prepare them for all this, we need to change our curriculum. The course names will be the same as we will still teach strategy, but now it is the strategy of a digital, emerging and innovative organisation. Earlier it was strategy focused on consumer tech, the high performing organisation or the stable organisation.

The bleat from the street

What with all the apps delivering straight to one’s doorstep, the supermarkets, the food halls and even the occasional (super-expensive) pop-up thela (cart) offering the woke from field-to-fork option, the good old veggie-market/mandi has fallen off my regular beat.

Upgrade your jeans

If you don’t live in the top four-five northern states of India, winter means little else than a pair of jeans. I live in Mumbai, where only mad people wear jeans throughout the year. High temperatures and extreme levels of humidity ensure we go to work in mulmul salwars, cotton pants, or, if you are lucky like me, wear shorts every day.
