Poonam Sharma has over 15 years of experience in the Marketing industry. Many of those years have been spent teaching and the journey has been rewarding. She has evolved and changed to suit the times. “Teaching has changed. Today the students are very sharp and smart. The very quality of students is different. Together with teaching, we are focusing on their personalities. We are very student centric today. All these aspects have become part of our teaching now,” Sharma observes.
To make her classes more interesting, she gives innumerable relevant examples. “We want our students at Jaipuria Noida to grow into global managers who can work anywhere in the world, so we train them accordingly.” A lot of case studies go into each aspect of her subject. During her classes, students can be found doing role playing and decision making. Lessons are retained when they are interesting, involving and interactive.

A Mentor:

Jaipuria Noida is focusing on is Entrepreneurship as a career option. “It is a very unique focus as we create an entrepreneurial environment on the campus with a student run entrepreneurial cell. We have collaborated with the National Entrepreneurship Network,” she says. Adding to the focus Jaipuria Noida has an Entrepreneurship Fair. “I take care of the fair and alumni relationship.”
She is realistic to entry level careers. Right when they step out of college, they cannot expect to be grabbed and put into Marketing Strategy and Planning. “In fact, for the first four to five years, they must work in a sales job. It will give them exposure to customer realities: what they like, what is a strict ‘no no’.”

A Guide:

Poonam Sharma goes out as a Guest Lecturer and presents papers in seminars and workshops. She has visited several countries and has received accolades. Her most memorable experience came last year, when she was presenting a paper at the Huston University, Virginia. “I met a faculty from Eastern Mennonite University. He liked my presentation and we started talking on the areas of our interest. Coincidentally, his area was also marketing.” He immediately invited her to deliver a guest talk to his students – online.
Being the perfect Indian hostess,Poonam Sharma invited them to Jaipuria Noida for a presentation. The relationship blossomed into her going there to take one of their courses on Entrepreneurship and Stewardship. Those 15 days in —– was a wonderful experience. “The people there are very professional; their culture is very interesting. Being there, meeting their students and finding out how their teaching is different from our teaching was truly a unforgettable opportunity,” she remembers.

Some Advice:

“Have a positive approach. Being positive helps you think better. Perseverance really works in life. Finally and most importantly, networking – you are not working if you are not networking. I tell my students that all the time. It is important. You need to meet and talk to people.” All the time. Nothing works like people inputs for a marketing person.

Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida is a hot favorite amongst MBA aspirants, if the thousands of admission applications are anything to go by. We spoke to some of these aspirants to find out why and here’s what they had to say:
Jaipuria Noida is known for its infrastructure, quality education and good faculty. But, as Prateek from Chandigarh pointed out, there are other factors that set the institute apart. “A cursory look at the placement opportunities, curriculum and the courses available makes me feel that Jaipuria is better than the others. Even the interview panel here was quite open about them whereas some other institutes didn’t even mention them. That’s why I would prefer Jaipuria.”
Like Prateek, most other aspirants who appeared for the interview – and could be just a step away from getting in – were happy with the way the interviews were being conducted. “They even sought our suggestions as to how to improve,” said a visibly excited Bhavana who seeks to specialize in Finance. “I recommended foreign language courses,” she added.
Bhavana learnt about the institute from one of her seniors who was all praises for the way Jaipuria imparts education, which, according to her, was unique. “One thing my senior particularly mentioned – which even I liked – was that students are a part of the learning process in the class. There is a proper interaction and industry interface,” she said.
Many aspirants also pointed out, and appreciated, how the institute lays emphasize on co-curricular activities which are essential to an individual’s all-round development.

Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida has been ranked sixth out of the top private B-schools in India’s north zone by Career 360. The publication, from the Outlook Group, targets young people from age 17 to 35, offering a range of advice, insight and information on education and careers and annually comes out with B-School rankings to help future MBA students choose what institute they want to attend.
In 2011 the survey based its rankings on a wide range of criteria, including core faculty ratio, PhD faculty ratio, international faculty, faculty with 10 years experience, faculty exchange, full-time PhDs, accreditation, consultancy, national papers and international papers. Jaipuria Institute Chairman Sharad Jaipuria notes “Modernity, aesthetics and simplicity characterize our green campus which is well equipped with the state-of-the-art learning tools aimed at providing a stimulating learning environment.”
“We believe that management education is a serious subject matter. We, therefore, benchmark our teaching methodology and infrastructure against the best B-Schools around the world. As a leading business house, we recognize that today’s managers must be well trained in anticipating and predicting the future, be good at strategic implementation and possess well-refined ‘people skills.’ It is these qualitative aspects that distinguish our endeavour and curricula in grooming young managers for the global world.”
As Director Anup K. Singh says “We at the Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida keep our students in the centre stage. Our all endeavours focus on them. The Institute closely interacts with the corporate world and comprehensively understands its needs and expectations from the academe. We nurture students in line with the demands of industry. Consequently, the curricula of different programmes have been developed keeping in mind the requirements of different stakeholders.”
“We believe in student-centred learning. The aim of our pedagogy is to help the students learn as active participants in the teaching learning process. Faculty act as facilitators and create learning milieu wherein the students critically analyse business situations and experiment with their ideas. The students are encouraged to learn in their own ways as well as learn from one another.”This same survey ranked Jaipuria Institute of Management Lucknow fifth.

They ran their algorithms across the whole universe of 113 schools and arrived at their marks. The final rank sheet has been presented after categorising schools as public and private. The idea was to enable more apple-to-apple comparison of the schools.

Romil Jain, alumnus of Jaipuria Noida, leads war on plastic!

Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida fired the first shot in its war on plastic by holding a bag making competition with the event judged by Jaipuria Noida graduate Romil Jain, sponsor of the event and Director of Meenakshi International which has developed an oxo-biodegradable plastic product. At the heart of the plastic problem is the ever-present plastic bag – hence the student’s alternative bag-making contest held last month at Jaipuria Noida, an event backed by the National Entrepreneurship Network (NEN). Who better to judge the competition than a Jaipuria alumnus, a man whose company has developed a rapidly biodegradable plastic alternative? Romil Jain said he looked for creativity, innovation, long-term commitment to their creation and presentation when judging the students efforts.
Asked how he came up with the oxo-biodegradable plastic product, he said they found plastics were a major concern when it comes to products adversely affecting the planet and worked with Wells Plastics UK, to come up with a creative alternative.
They then presented it to the European industry, received a positive response and then looked at the potential in the Indian market for such creative solutions in the area of plastic. He then approached students, alumni and faculty at Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida, found the students were really enthusiastic and excited about bringing about a change in the way we look at plastics and the product has grown from there.
Asked about the inspiration behind the product, Romil, the first Jaipuria student to go for a student exchange to Finland, cited friends he met abroad, companies he worked with there, his parents and teachers – “So this product is the result of that student exchange program!”
The non-profit National Entrepreneurship Network was established in 2003 with a mission to create and support high-growth entrepreneurs, driving job creation and economic growth in India.
NEN has more than 70,000 members in 30 cities and gives support to start-ups and early-stage entrepreneurs through entrepreneurship education, access to mentors and experts, fast-track access to incubation and funding and learning tools and materials. It is also partnered with more than 470 top-tier academic institutes in India to help them develop entrepreneurship ecosystems on campus, which develop and support new and future entrepreneurs.

Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida alumnus Romil Jain, entrepreneur and Director of Meenakshi International, visited his alma mater as a guest lecturer, to speak on plastics and judge the initial action in the institute’s war on plastics. Jain, whose company has developed an oxo-biodegradable plastic product, said he found plastics were a major concern when it comes to products adversely affecting the planet and worked with Wells Plastics UK, to come up with a creative alternative. Plastic is a major industry in India, he said, pointing to the Plastindia 2012 Eighth International Exhibition and conference to be held in New Delhi February 1-6.
In India, he said, plastic consumption has increased from 7.5 million tonnes to 15 million tonnes and the country will become the third largest consumer of plastic in the future. Consumption of plastic has grown and the concerns center around the disposing of the product, he said, but the industry is coming up with new technology to help people and to use plastic in a better way without harming life on the planet and jeopardizing society.
Speaking on life out in the business world, Jain said it is a matter of survival of the fittest. Tough competition exists he told students and if practical knowledge is not present, a student will suffer as he will switch jobs and will not be able to learn anything.
He stressed the need for practical knowledge but also said self evaluation is important, noting everybody works individually and a person should have good knowledge and personality to succeed in the long run.
Jain said his working motto is “plan not for today but for tomorrow” and told the students to never be afraid of hurdles – every problem has a solution.
“Just believe in your own self and be positive,” he said.
As for his success, he gave credit to the Jaipuria Noida faculty, his colleagues, the college environment and awesome opportunities which he received. As the first student to go for an exchange program in Finland he thanked Dr. J.D Singh, Director of Jaipuria, for making the impossible possible.
