Dear recruiter, Message from Let me begin with one of my favourite quotes: the Dean “In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing; the next best thing is the wrong thing and the worst thing you can do is nothing” - Theodore Roosevelt I suppose that in this day and age, it is not inappropriate to add another line to his wise counsel –“Are we doing the RIGHT THINGS or are we doing THINGS RIGHT?” Let me take you back a couple of decades. The PC was just starting to become popular and we in India were using GPRS at 64kbps speeds to commence our love affair with the Internet. With the turn of the century, there was the dotcom revolution, a little later it was the subprime crisis followed by the spotlight on the BRICS economies, the Arab Spring, Brexit. A couple of years ago, it was the 4th Industrial revolution spearheaded by disruptive technologies, IoT, Analytics, bots and innovative best practices. Today it is the turn of AI, Machine Learning and Block Chains.

CORPORATE – Campus COLLABORATION Corporate Interaction Series Great Lakes Institute of Management, Chennai believes in continuous engagement with eminent industry practitioners and professionals across the globe to facilitate an experiential learning and development of students under the programs - PGPM and PGDM. While the corporate lectures bring forth vast exposure and opportunities to the students to interact closely with visionaries at CxO level of various organizations, it also provides an opportunity for corporates to interact with the young minds and understand their requirements and mindsets. Such lectures are organized on the basis of following six broad categories i.e. Special Interest Groups (SIGs) taking into consideration students’ specific areas of interest: Analytics Sales & Marketing IT/ITES BFSI Strategy & Consulting Manufacturing/Non-IT Operations Short term live projects for PGPM In today’s times, practical or applied learning is of utmost importance for the budding management graduates. We create this opportunity by way of a tripartite system in which students, corporate mentors and faculty guides work together (e.g. Amazon Kindle live project) on projects based on analyzing a current business problem, conducting market research for a new product or benchmarking current organization practices. The students are allowed work in a team size of 1 to 5. This brings together an additional platform for students, giving them pioneer knowledge along with a skillset towards developing a management oriented thought process.
