No Comments on Shri S.S. Mundra, CMD of Bank of Baroda addresses the 17th Annual Convocation at Jaipuria, Lucknow

May 23, 2013: Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow, held its Seventeenth Annual Convocation on May 23, 2013. Shri S.S. Mundra, Chairman and Managing Director of Bank of Baroda was the honourable Chief Guest on the occasion. Chairman, Shri Sharad Jaipuria, Vice Chairman, Shri Shreevats Jaipuria, Director General, Dr. Pankaj Gupta, Director of the Institute, Prof. S.R. Musanna, the esteemed members of the Board of Governors and the Academic Council of Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow, were present on this occasion.

Shri Sharad Jaipuria, Chairman, Board of Governors, Jaipuria Institute of Management, welcomed the Chief Guest and the distinguished congregation on the solemn occasion. The Convocation souvenir was also released on this occasion. Shri Jaipuria, while delivering his welcome address, highlighted that Jaipuria’s ethos is built around the ‘student’, the individual who yearns for knowledge. He added that the curriculum and pedagogy followed at Jaipuria make the student a partner and an active participant in the teaching-learning process. He noted that India maintains its position as the second fastest growing economy of the world and further noted that the corporate world looks at India as the land of opportunities in view of its ever-expanding market. He advised the management students to understand the multiple challenges and opportunities in the emerging scenario and work accordingly to make a mark of success for the organization they work in and also for their own self. He pointed out that at a time when the major countries of the world, such as China, Japan and South Korea are facing a serious ‘demographic squeeze’, India enjoys a remarkable ‘demographic dividend’. Adding that India has more than 60% of its population in the working age, he stressed that ‘inclusion of people lying at the bottom of the pyramid’ is an opportunity as well as necessity for the economic growth of the country. He closed by urging the students to always work with ‘passion’ and ‘ownership’ in life.

The Chief Guest Shri S.S. Mundra, in his address, expressed joy in being a part of the convocation ceremony at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow. Wishing the young graduates luck on their journey into the corporate echelons, emphasized to keep a vision in their lives. He further emphasized that nowadays whatever is the area of your interest, there is always an opportunity in that area. According to him the new leadership mantra is "Survival of the most flexible mentally, physically and emotionally".

Giving some home truths he said that he has complaints that the present youth has a very short span of attention. Therefore he advised that serious reading and internalising could be a substitute to "channel surfing". He ended up by suggesting the students to look for a job where they would learn and become a flare and not a fire burn out.

Dr. Pankaj Gupta, Director General, Jaipuria Institute of Management, welcoming the graduating students to the 17th Convocation, emphasized the students to choose their career on the basis of their ‘ruchi’, ‘yogyata’ and ‘vishwas’ to achieve excellence in life. He highlighted the role of ‘vision’, ‘passion’,‘ownership’ and ‘dedication’ in making a successful career. He urged the students to continuously build their KASH (Knowledge, Attitude, Skills and Habits) balance everyday which will make a big difference one day. He further urged the students to have a ‘life-long learning attitude’ in life. Advising the students to always be ‘a professional’, he wished the students all the best in their professional endeavours.

Dr. S.R. Musanna, Director, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow, presented the progress-report of the Institute and highlighted the milestones achieved by the Institute during the academic year 2012-2013. He emphasized that success may be the collective goal of many, but the person himself is the true judge of what success is for him. He noted that future belongs to those who dream and urged the students to dare dream impossible dreams and work hard to actualize them. Highlighting the importance of ‘humility’ and ‘compassion’ in life, he added that a person is remembered for his character. He concluded by wishing the graduating class all success.

Vote of thanks was proposed by Shri Shreevats Jaipuria, Vice Chairman, Jaipuria Institute of Management. He advised the students to treat their workplace as ‘an extension of their personality’; to go ‘the extra mile’ to pursue just one lead they have a glimmering hope of; to ask ‘the extra questions’ to develop good understanding of things and to put in ‘the extra hours’ to do things with perfection. Saying that it is not the end but the beginning of a long and continuous journey, he wished the students an enriching future.

In all, 268 students successfully completed various programmes of the Institute this year. The programmes are: 2-year full-time PGDM, 2-year full-time PGDM (Financial Services), 2-year full-time PGDM (Retail Management) and 3-year part-time PGDM programmes.

No Comments on Jaipuria Lucknow wows new students with a fun-filled and informative orientation.

In July 2012, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow welcomed 300 new students with a two-week orientation programme. An energising mix of classroom activities and Talash – a collection of post-classroom activities – made the 2012 orientation a perfect beginning to the academic year.
Jaipuria Lucknow had invited several eminent professionals from various sectors of management to interact with the students during the orientation. There were panel discussions and talks that helped students understand industrial trends, employability criteria and discipline in working life. The speakers included Ankit Khandelwal, Ex Chairman, Bank of Baroda; V. K. Srivastava, Principal/Deputy General Manger, Punjab National Bank; Majush Garg, an entrepreneur; P. N. Sharma, Principal/Deputy General Manger, Allahabad Bank, Staff College, Lucknow; Lord Justice Bhanwar Singh; Anshumal Dikshit, Head- HR, IGATE; Akhilesh Sharma, State Head, Hero Moto Corp; and Sanjeev Jha, AVP, Magma Finance Corporation.
The students were thrilled to have their queries regarding working life addressed by these industry stalwarts. “I really appreciated the orientation programme conducted by the institution. It gave me an opportunity to glean a lot of knowledge from various industry leaders,” said Lalit Saxena, a 2012 batch student.
The orientation was, however, not only about industry sync but also included a series of fun and sports activities. These helped the senior and junior students to get acquainted and develop an appreciation for each other’s talents in the area of extra-curricular activities and sports. Rahul Jaiswal, another new student, appreciated the initiative, “Talash as the name suggests, was ‘KHOJ’. The institute has been successful in exploring new talent among freshers in dance, sports and various extra-curricular activities.”
Several events were held under the banner of Talash during the two-week orientation and preparatory programmes, featuring both extra-curricular and co-curricular activities like creative writing, HR games, marketing games, debates, JAM competition, business quiz and finance games. The students felt recognised and appreciated. Ishita Sehgal, a newcomer, says, “I always had inclination towards badminton and anchoring. During Talash, I got the opportunity to showcase my talents.” Fashion Fiesta was a favourite with the students. “I was on cloud nine when I was announced the best female model during Fashion Fiesta!” gushes Divyata Singh. There were prizes for the competitions and Sajal Chaturvedi bagged the first prize in solo singing while Ajay Wadhwa bagged the solo dance prize for his extraordinary and versatile classical dance performance.
Talash was designed to create energy and synergy between old and new students and it seemed to have met both its goals!
“The event helped to bridge the ‘stranger-anxiety’ between freshers and seniors,” said Radhika Chaturvedi, a senior at Jaipuria Lucknow.
The orientation ended on a high note with students raring to learn and begin the course.

FACULTY Speaks Jaipuria Lucknow

Management by intuition is not enough anymore, you need to know your numbers.”

Post author By admin
Post date July 26, 2012

When a professional leaves the security of a government job to shift into academics, he does so only because he is truly dedicated to teaching and learning. Dr. Masood H. Siddiqui quit his job as statistical officer for the UP government after three years of service. He believed he was better suited to the calling of a teacher.
In 2005, Dr. Siddiqui joined Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow. He now has 13 years of teaching experience in Quantitative Analysis, Operations Research, Research Methodology and Data Analysis behind him. Dr. Siddiqui’s approach to the course is completely aligned with business and industry. While teaching at Jaipuria Lucknow, Dr. Siddiqui realised that courses like decision-science are not very popular among the students because they are perceived as complex and mathematical. He decided to evolve a methodology to make the course more acceptable and student-friendly without diluting its content. As he puts it, “The objective has been to develop the conceptual clarity and understanding for objective decision-making without making it complex.”
Dr. Siddiqui also identified that these courses were seen as non-core management courses and not very useful in dealing with real business situations. He says, “These complexities and dogmatism have distanced the students and future managers from these subjects and they are opting out of such courses in almost all management institutes, including the top-ranking ones.” This trend, however, is creating gaps in the globalised world of business. The competition is tough and management by intuition is no longer enough. He thinks “A need is being felt for ‘numbers’ to support intuitions and some enhanced analytical and logical tools to support the decisions being made.”
He points out another change in the environment – knowledge process outsourcing – that makes it necessary for students to build these competencies. The objective of the decision science courses is to understand the environment surrounding the problem, to figure out what the problem really is, analyze the available courses of action and choose the best one available.
Uncertainty in the business scenario makes the task of choosing the appropriate solution difficult. Dr. Siddiqui has turned this problem into a solution for the students. He shifted the focus from theory, statistical tools and concepts to the quest for answers to the questions that were raised! “We managed to change the very nature of questions arising in the minds of the students and successfully imparted rational answers to those questions. Hence the curiosity in the students’ minds was logically addressed.”
The students have appreciated the innovative teaching method and Dr. Siddiqui is reveling in the success. His only wish is to continue to inspire generations of students with the subjects he loves.

A seven-week summer internship with Bank of India proved to be an educational experience for Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow student Bhoomika Agrawal.
“I learned how practical implementation is entirely different from the theoretical fundamentals,” she said. “It made me realize the importance of meeting targets on time and proving your credibility in the corporate world. The whole staff and officers at Bank Of India were very helpful and co-operative.”
During her internship, she worked on a project involving the comparison of products and services in the banking industry and Bank of India’s customer satisfaction.
She was also actively involved in deposit mobilisation campaigns organised by the Bank of India in most of its branches in Lucknow. As she says, “I opened about 100 accounts per day on average, with two other marketing officers.”
The internship also instilled a new respect for the banking industry in Bhoomika.
“The work culture is very good and the conducive atmosphere made me feel at peace while working. It has instilled in me a strong desire to join a bank or for that matter, any reputed firm with a good work culture.”
In particular, she cited Jaipuria’s “highly functional and active placement cell” which she said helps students to achieve their dream jobs.
“Overall,” said Bhoomika, “the placement process is very fair and gives equal opportunity to every student to attain his or her ultimate objective. The preparation process sets up every student to excel in the corporate world by enhancing our communication skills, strengthening our forte and overcoming our weaknesses. Individual attention is given to every student and everyone’s needs are catered to.”
An all-round student, she excels both academically and in athletics. Her hard work had finally paid of when she was awarded a scholarship of Rs. 75,000/- by Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow for securing 98.9 per cent in MAT 2011. Her string of achievements continues till date. She qualified in the GATE entrance exam with 89.2 per cent; was a Merit Holder for securing second position in B. Tech. Food Technology; got fifth position on National Science Day (2010) for her poster presentation. In the field of sports she was placed ninth in the 3.5 km cross- country race (University Athletics Meet, 2009). Bhoomika has bee actively involved in organising the Interdependence, Integration and Co-creation conference.
She also appreciates all the support she got from Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow. “The best thing about Jaipuria is its ever-helpful and highly-qualified faculty members,” she said. “I enjoy being in Jaipuria because of the immense support I receive from my friends and peers.”
She continued in the same vein, “Because of Jaipuria, I have enhanced my analytical, technical and communication abilities and since the institute has a good brand image and reputation, I hope to receive a good job in the future.”

Post date July 26, 2012

Students of the regular PGDM, PGDM – Financial Services and PGDM – Retail Management courses of Jaipuria Lucknow visited the Tata Motors Plant at Chinhat, Lucknow, for the 7^th consecutive year. As a part of their industrial interface programme, the would-be managers at Jaipuria Lucknow took management tips from professionals at Tata Motors and observed the globally acclaimed corporate manufacturing practices of Tata Motors.
The youngsters from Jaipuria Lucknow were shown all the action in the Chinhat plant, from production plans for the day, stock and raw materials storage and movement and inventory control, to supply chain management. The heads of various departments briefed the students from Jaipuria Lucknow and answered their questions patiently. The future managers were also exposed to the world-renowned Tata Motors methodology of Lean Production i.e. procurement of raw materials in small lots from nearby vendors.
“As an HR student, for me the most interesting part of the visit was talking to HR executives of the Chinhat plant about the challenges of labour allocation at various work stations, issues-resolution in the huge plant, best manufacturing practices and safety measures adopted during the production run,” says Harsha Mishra, a second year student.
During the visit, the Jaipuria students also had the opportunity to interact with the top management of Tata Motors, Lucknow, on the factory floor. The entire initiative, led by Professor Vinod Kumar Chib from the Operations Management department of Jaipuria Lucknow, was quite successful.
Over these seven years of association, the bond between the Chinhat Plant of Tata Motors and Jaipuria Lucknow has become stronger. Senior managers from Tata Motors visit the Jaipuria Lucknow campus to interact with the students and faculty on a regular basis, with the most recent visit being that of Mr. Tribhuvan Kumar, AGM. Mr. C. V. Singh, Executive Vice President (Operations) often finds time to come to Jaipuria Lucknow and share his experiences in the Lucknow plant as well as his earlier experiences in Tata-Daewoo Motors Limited, Korea. Mr. Alok Saxena, Plant in-charge, Lucknow, has also inspired students of Jaipuria Lucknow through his visits and conversations.
It is expected that students of Jaipuria Lucknow will continue benefiting from the wisdom of Tata Motors professionals, and be inspired to do well in their corporate careers.

Post author By admin

Dr. Manisha Seth is not just a faculty member of Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow for 8 years now, but also an alumna from the 1995-97 batch. One of the top 5 rank holders of her batch, Dr Seth joined Koshika Telecom Ltd., a telecom service provider, after completing her PGDBM from Jaipuria Lucknow.
“My two years in the corporate world, I realised that I was more inclined towards teaching. After working there for five years, I joined Jaipuria Lucknow in 2004, and since then I have been working here as a faculty.”
Dr. Manisha Seth is currently an Assistant Professor in Human Resources & Organisational Behaviour at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow. She has attended & contributed research papers in various international & national conferences; published papers in reputed Journals; coordinated conferences, seminars and workshops, and conducted management development programmes.
Dr Manisha Seth adopts a ‘beyond text book’ approach as a method of teaching, and lays more emphasis on ‘learning by doing’. Discussion on current & emerging HR issues are an essential component of HR & OB courses that she teaches at Jaipuria Lucknow.
Another teaching approach Dr. Manisha has adopted is to ensure that students get enough industrial exposure within the classroom itself. “I have been trying to increase the industry-academic interface component of my courses through involvement of my students in workshops, conferences, MDP’s and HRD network meetings. I invite industry experts to the classrooms to give practical inputs to students.” This provides a real world experience to the students.
Dr. Seth remembers her two years at Jaipuria Lucknow, as a student, as the most remarkable years of my life, helping her grow tremendously both on the personal as well as academic front.
“The interaction between the faculty and the students was very open and encouraging. We could approach and discuss our problems with our faculty without any hesitation and that bond remains strong till date. My association with Jaipuria Lucknow is 17 years now. My sense of freedom and comfort is very high here. I have been honing my research interests; I have been floating new electives as per the identified needs of industry. I have spent the happiest and most memorable years of my life at Jaipuria Lucknow.”
And being an alumni, she has also decided to take on herself to develop a vibrant and engaged alumni community, “My major administrative responsibility has been in the alumni committee of Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow. I played an active role in streamlining the processes, conducting frequent chapter meets and generating enthusiasm and interest amongst the alumni. Being an alumni I get a great response, work around the fact that she is an alumni head.”
For Dr. Manisha Seth, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow is a home away from home.
