From The Editor’s Desk

“If you don’t get lost, there’s a chance you may never be found.”

– Anonymous

The term break was just a quiet calm before the storm was to

hit us. Back to college and straight into the muddle for submis-

sions, quizzes, marks and the competitive rat race. The stress and

confusion can really get overpowering. And while you may try to

drown it out through various ways...it always tends to find its way

back the very next day. Maybe it’s time you slow down and spend

some time to party with the one person you barely give time

to...yourself.

Our lives move at such a blistering pace that many times it

blinds us, our senses experiencing a bit too much for our souls to

catch up. How much time do we spend doing things we really like

or that give us peace? Most times we don’t even know what

those things are. The journey to knowing yourself and finding out

what defines you can take all life or a few days depending on how

much time you truly allot to yourself. While this may seem like an

arduous task initially, like any skill you acquire it becomes easier

with time and the benefits rise exponentially.

Get in the zone of self discovery and you might never catch

yourself looking around you and thinking you’re just another

face in the crowd, or think about ‘adding to your CV’ that makes

you rise up a little above the remaining crowd or move up fur-

ther in the never ending race. Maybe then you may not even be

in the rat race. You’ll blaze a trail of your own.

We hope this September edition nudges you along that path

which is just yours with no one in the race.

Starting off,, we have a very special article, by Kotak Mahindra

Bank Group Head Mr KVS Manian, called ‘Good Money Habits

Can Change Your Life’. It helps us with something we all

need...managing our money better!

We have Manas Shrivastava talking about the noble art of

attending a lecture in ‘A Class To Remember’. This article is one

which I’m sure everyone will relate to.

In a new section, ‘That’s Just, Like Your, Opinion, Man’, we

review a movie and give it our rating. “The Lunchbox” gets the

honour of being the first film we review.

In the ‘Gurukul’ section this time, we have the dynamic

Dr Christo Fernandes talking about his journey so far, his

inspirations and setbacks and about directing a movie among

other things. Catch up on all that has been buzzing and

happening around you (in case you’ve missed it!) in the

‘In Thing’.

Kshitiz’s Vipul Chaturvedi, in his ‘Dost, Saley Dost’, writes

about how friends add to your happiness and give you fond

memories for life.

Next up, get into the spirit of adventure and self discovery

and sit behind our very own Aniruddha Khosla in the pillion

rider seat while he takes you along his journey to Ladakh, the

first of a very special series called ‘On the Road’, capturing the

essence of his astonishing journey through one of the most

treacherous yet soulful terrains in the world.

A class to remember …

Sitting inside a Marketing class you can either choose to evolve your

temperament or give your brains a break. And when the class is after the lunch

break, you would certainly feel that “Life is just like a boomerang “. The

entering of the Professor swings our eyes towards the clock which becomes like

an infernal machine for the next ninety minutes. The most precious moment

arrives when you say Yes Sir hearing your name called out… Ghaash , pulled

off a victory .

Then suddenly a wave of a new Marketing concept is shown on the slide and

one seems to feel why the hell a new chapter when the basic idea remains the

same- sell, sell and sell. Lecture begins and after a lapse of few minutes , I

would see my CR doze off…Then suddenly , a person behind me begins

meditation (obviously with closed eyes) personifying as if he is going to bring

out an exceptional marketing plan. With every slide, seats become a

comfortable chair for power naps.

Coming after Lunch and that too

drenched in rain brought a feeling of

unrest in me. Feeling the sound of

shotguns in our dreams, as the eyes

open, we see a few doubts being raised

in the class and feel as if these students

are no less than angels when they can

concentrate for such a long time.

Seeing a bunch of case studies, we realise that our short sleep is going to

sustain the evil punishment again..

Hell quiz time , and here we see a noble gentleman getting up from his seat

asking answers all around the park. Slowly and steadily, the devils wake up and

it soon becomes a crowded market, where no one knows the answers perfectly

but it’s the faith that others must have thought something before marking the

answers. The same ones who few minutes ago were not able to absorb the

sermons are ready to pull off a baseball match.

And to the surprise, I see the Professor smiling as if he felt honoured seeing the

unity in us. With the submission, we all feel proud of giving our 200% to the

class. The class was certainly unusual and longer than expected. After a few

laughs and high fives suddenly the door opens and we realise that now is the

time to become the best listeners in the World and devote any left energy to the

next subject…God save our souls …!!!

Audrick D’Mello was ‘Author Of The Month’ for August

That's just, like, your opinion, man

The Lunchbox

A character in this movie pensively exclaims that sometimes a wrong train

may lead you to the right destination. The story revolves around people who

live in the past, people who hope to make it right. But does an ill-tempered

widower have anything to look forward to? Retirement, maybe?

Irrfan, who plays Saajan Fernandes, has spent 35 years of his life, diligently

working in the same office, at the same desk. He is that uncle in your society

who does not give back your cricket ball. There is a fast moving Mumbai and

there is this ‘slowly coming to terms with life’ Bombay. Saajan lives in

Bombay.

Ila, played by Nirmat Kaur, is your usual ‘stuck in a routine’ housewife. She

gets up, dresses her daughter for school, prepares tiffin for her husband,

washes clothes, chats with Mrs Deshpande living on the floor above. Ila’s

husband is cheating on her.

These are your everyday characters, stuck in their routines, perhaps not

even waiting for something to happen. A dabba that gets delivered to the

wrong table changes their lives forever.

Saajan and Ila exchange notes in the dabba, with Saajan commending Ila’s

cooking and Ila talking about her problems. Both you and the characters ea-

gerly wait for the next note to arrive. The dabba serves as a renewed inter-

est in their lives and their notes bring a smile to your face. You inwardly wish

for them to somehow find each other.

A special mention goes out for Nawazuddin Siddique, who plays Shaikh,

Saajan’s assistant. “Saar, kaise hain aap?”, is how the overfriendly Shaikh

addresses Saajan every time he meets him. He is one of those interfering

kinds you meet at your workplace. Some of the best scenes of the movie

are when both Irrfan and Nawaz share screen space. And you can only

imagine what brilliance they can bring when acting together.

Debutant director Ritesh Batra has struck gold with his first movie. He gives

you those little moments you can relate to and savour for some time to

come. The movie is beautifully crafted, well written and brilliantly enacted.

It makes you believe that Indian cinema has indeed come of age.

“Mere dil bhi kitna pagal hai” from the movie Saajan is a lingering after-

taste that you relish.

Kshitiz Rating - ****

Dr Christo Fernandes

Who has been the most influential person in your life?

Wayne Dyer, who is a speaker of thought provoking transformational

leadership. He is one of the people who inspired me. There is also Ekhart Tolle

and his book “The Power of Now”. And I think I also got a little influenced by

the strongest element of western philosophy through Socrates.

What is the most effective motivational theory according to you?

There is nothing effective or most important, it depends on the context of the

situation but if you are looking at individual psychology while trying to fit in a

goal for a person rather than a team then management by objectives (MBO) is

extremely essential and so is self efficacy. I think breaking the barrier of theory;

the most important thing of realising what theory works in is the element of

using the theory with a purpose of acquiring the highest possible goal in the

shortest available time. Now theories are meant for you to give an idea of how

things happen but how you use them makes the difference.

What has been the greatest setback of your life and what have you learnt

from it?

The greatest set back of my life is that you shouldn’t work too hard. And you

shouldn’t run too much on one track thinking. Working too hard doesn’t help

and here one first needs to understand what hard work is. And what I learnt

from there is more than hard work it is important to have clarity. If you are

clear where you want to go you don’t have to work hard. If I think of just

writing 15 to 20 books in my life that is not going to get me anywhere but if I

know why that book is essential to me then I am going to impart that

education. If you look at all the great authors it’s not that all the hundred

books made them famous but that one book that did so.

Why teaching as a profession?

I love teaching. Because you are able to interact with new ideas and be able to

share them not because of a text book but you actually undergo a scientific

research and share those ideas. So it’s an evolving spirit of learning. That’s why

I feel it’s important to spend and invest time in teaching. There are better

professions but I think this was more comfortable for me. I felt I could

contribute to a lot of people’s lives. I realised I wanted to get into teaching

from the time I finished my graduation.

Upwards I had built up a ten year plan to do my

PhD and get into teaching. I wanted to be a

professor/teacher/writer since the tenth

standard. I did a specialisation in philosophy

that helped me think along those lines. A lot of

professors become professors because they

have nowhere else to go but I had planned this

right from the start so this is not by chance.

Why role plays as a teaching method?

Learning is not just a two way method or a

3 way method but it is a method that

should focus on the effectiveness of the

learner and if the learner can actually be

engaged in feeling the theory or the subject

more strongly they understand better. In

fact education is understood better as an

experience than theory. Role play allows

you to simulate that experience and that’s why I feel it’s an effective way of

learning because if you work on a project you are actually role playing the

entire exercise of theory and that’s your learning; not what happens in

classroom. There are some subjects where you cannot do a role play like

quantitative maths, but some subjects where social learning theory is of high

importance like organisation behaviour, role plays are very necessary and are

most important ways of learning.

What are you future goals and ambitions?

My future goals and ambitions are:

First and foremost I want to direct a movie. It’s more of a documentary,

educational in nature. I’m in the

process of writing a play and also in the

process of completing my research

output in the area of organisational role

stress.

You’ve done a lot of courses, degrees in your career, which is the most

interesting course you’ve studied and why?

My bachelor’s degree of philosophy is the only degree which made me think.

Thereafter I did my PhD which allowed me to culminate my thinking. Anything

in between was just an eye wash. Bachelor’s of philosophy was the course that

made me realise how to rationally evaluate and understand thinking processes.

That element of rationality was the biggest gift education could give me and

that is why I think it was the best degree.

What is the most spontaneous thing you have ever done?

The most spontaneous thing that I have ever done is taken an entire batch of

60 people to Inox theatre and showed them a movie and converted it into

class. I did it last month. We started the lecture in a classroom, and everybody

was very lethargic and tired. So i came and told them that there is a movie

starting in 10 minutes and the entire class was in the theatre. The best part was

that nobody else was in the theatre. And also the students had an exam the

very next day.

Can you tell us something that the students don’t know about you?

I am a professional coach for many people in the area of mentoring. This means

that some people use the skill to align their thinking so that their lives can go

better. And I use within that mentoring another tool which is called

professional music development. I am specialized in 9 instruments but I have

my PhD and fellowship in violin. Therefore my expertise is in drawing people’s

potential to this set of calibre. That’s what I actually do for many people in the

world either through consulting or supporting. Apart from that, I’m a very busy

trainer in the corporate world. But music is one of the most satisfying and

rewarding experiences and that’s why I apply all the management theories into

this learning experience. That’s what makes my private coaching a professional

coaching. The greatest gift I can give is that I can convert an individual in a short

span of time to the highest level of musical qualification because of the

techniques that I have learnt from my masters.

What according to you has been your best achievement so far?

The greatest achievement that I’ve felt so far was when I achieved my PhD and

realised it was of no value. Because I realised what is important is to think

rationally in every situation. PhD didn’t mean you had everything in your hand, it

just meant that life began. That was my biggest achievement. While I climbed

mountain after mountain and mountain after mountain, these were just labels

that came across in your hand. What was most important was to draw all the

labels out and tell yourself these are not what you are. At end of the day you

don’t see my qualifications and my embarrassingly long CV, you see me. That was

my achievement. That after all the qualifications, people don’t see your

qualifications and achievements they see you as who you are.

Which was your favourite section among the PGP1 Batch?

I think in terms of assignments submissions and deadlines, Sections A & B but in

terms of role plays I think Sections C & D.

Why is HR such a neglected field when it comes

to career choices?

HR is still in the nascent stage in India and abroad as

people need to recognise its full value and power.

One of the reasons it’s neglected or not seen as

productive is they feel HR doesn’t create value and

that is not true. If we start focussing and seeing what is the impact HR has on cost

cutting or cost development. Once you realize there is as an integrated

understanding, then HR will have its value, but since the primary goal of any

business is to support and sustain itself, money seems to be the foremost goal,

therefore finance and marketing take importance. Whereas if you judge any

organisation only from the economical standpoint you know you are in trouble.

There I think HR has its value but slowly and steadily it has to refocused and

realised.

What do you think should be a student’s approach to best benefit from the

PGDM course?

One of the things that the students should realise is not to be lured away with

lots of clutter of activities that happen inside or outside college and to focus

and realise first and foremost where you wanted to go in these 2 years. Once

you recognise that I think a good student is one who would spend about 60% of

his time in a good library trying to at least use that time which he will never

ever in his life get again. And then develop better forms of building

employability for himself, not qualification.

MY JOURNEY TO LADAKH

Memory is a very tricky thing, in the sense that it fades away with time. All

you’re left with is a faint sense of belonging to this place that you had visited

some light years ago. Through this travelogue, I not only intend to preserve

my own memory, but also attempt to give you a glimpse of what I

experienced on the road and help anyone planning to travel through one of

the most inhospitable and treacherous terrains of the world!

As I inferred throughout the journey, traveling teaches you a lot of things. In

fact, each day and each road teaches you something new. Surprises pop up

out of nowhere and sometimes you are left wondering why you embarked on

such a painful journey. In the end, if you make it alive, you are left with

stories to tell, you know the road like you’ve been traveling it for centuries,

you build relationships with fellow travelers with utmost ease and obviously,

there’s an unmistakable feeling of pride. This feeling stems out from the fact

that you did not choose to sit on your ass and watch the day go by, you chose

to ride it by bidding your comfort goodbye!

This is going to be one long story but I assure you that I’ll touch all the im-

portant aspects of riding to Ladakh. And hey, the difficult terrain starts only

after you cross Manali, so please keep reading!

Day 1 – 20th June – Dehradun – Chandigarh

Chandigarh is 180 kms from Dehradun. On the night of 19th June, I felt

butterflies in my stomach. “Was it too late to call it off now? Should I really

go? I should rather be thinking about what I intend to do in life than go on

pointless journeys.” Sleep was difficult to find. I smsed AC to check whether

he was awake too. He didn’t reply and it troubled me even more to think of

what a thorough adventurer that guy was. Sleeping at the right time to get up

early in the morning and all.

So AC arrived at my place at around 7 in the morning. He helped me tie my

luggage to my Pulsar 200, which can be the most herculean task, if I may say

so. It took us 30 minutes, what with my dog trying to inspect all the bags. AC

owns a beautiful 500cc Classic. A couple of days ago, we had gone to Rishikesh

to get a carrier fixed on his bike. The carrier cost him around 2500 INR. We

were also fooled into buying fake sandalwood, fake Rudraksha and some

expensive orange juice. Our moms would be so proud of us, we had thought!

We were soon revving up for our most amazing journey ever!

On the road, minutes later, I realized that my tachometer was not working. It

was too early in the morning to get the tachometer checked at a service

center, so I rode around 40 kms without the speed indicator until I found a

Castrol Bike Point. This guy opened the tyre, checked for problems and

concluded that nothing was wrong with the tachometer. Disgusted, I moved

on. Five minutes later the tachometer was working fine. And thankfully, it

worked fine throughout the journey!

We reached Gurudwara Shri Paonta Sahib by 10:30 and decided to offer

prayers. My mother had packed a couple of parathas (though I told her repeat-

edly that it is so uncool to have tiffin packed by your mom when you’re out on

such an adventurous journey, but mothers are mothers and you cannot

possibly say no to an Aloo Paratha!), each of which was had by AC and me

inside the Gurudwara. Another one hour till we were back on the road, by

which time, the sun was scorching and we were almost drained.

We stopped at a place called Nahan for a cold drink. It’s a small town in

Himachal Pradesh, and AC told me that Mohit Chauhan hails from the same

town! Besides quenching our thirst, each stop was a welcome rest to our sore

asses. The plastic chairs offered more comfort than the cushioned seats of our

bikes. It also gave us a chance to discuss cricket, politics and movies. And we

had a lot of arguments on the road, throughout the journey; some heated

ones, others in agreement!

Within 6 hours of starting, we were in Chandigarh looking for a place to stay.

I asked this young pendu whether he knew where Infosys Chandigarh was.

“Main to kal hi Jalandhron aayaan”, he replied! Yeah, right! Feels like Punjab,

I thought!

Time for some gyan! When you’ve been riding for long hours and you finally

reach your destination for the day, you will not have any strength left to go

from hotel to hotel and enquire about the rates, unless you’re a stingy

customer. It’s a psychological thing. Had the place been 50 kms away, you

would still have traveled the distance, but when you’re inside the town, you

prefer settling for the first hotel you find on the road. And that hotel is

usually the most expensive one. So long story short, we got a room for 1000

INR a day, an air-conditioned one, and we were pretty happy with it!

Lesson learnt for future travel – look for cheap hotels before you start.

So we immediately crashed into this air-conditioned room in Hotel Comfort

Inn, Mani Majra. We found the room so comforting that we decided to stay

on in Chandigarh for another day but that’s a separate story. AC decided to

rest and I called up a friend who works in Infosys Chandigarh, and she took

me to the Sector 17 market. What’s funny is that Sector 17 market has this

big stage with DJ systems and all and some local Punjabi singer was

performing in front of a very big crowd. I had never seen anything like this,

right in the middle of a market!

I visited Infosys, Chandigarh on the same day. So this was the place where

all us North Indian Infoscions longed to get transferred to all these years!

The best part about Infosys, Chandigarh is that there’s a mall right in front

of it! The DT Mall. And what’s even better is that this mall houses the

‘Harley Davidson’ showroom. Compare this to Infosys, Pune where we had

only a vada pav stall outside!

Day 2 – 21st June – Chandigarh

There was no way we could have woken up early the next day. The

air-conditioned room was making it worse. This was kind of a mutual thing

between AC and me. We would sense each other’s mood the morning we

were supposed to ride and slyly make up an excuse for staying a day extra!

You’ve got to love Chandigarh for the way they’ve planned this city. Each

roundabout is around a kilometer away from the other, marked with neat

signage. It’s so good that getting lost in this city is almost impossible.

We roamed around a bit and watched TV after getting back to our room. The

evening was well spent in the company of Miss Pooja, Yo Yo Honey Singh and

Diljit.

Ladakh seemed so far away from the comfort of this room.

Next in line – Chandigarh to Manali and the one where I nearly ended up un-

der a truck.

IN THING!!!

Exam Jitters:

Three months flew by with the wink of an eye, examination phobia set in and

while everyone was discussing notes, last year papers and tutorial sessions,

there was pin drop silence all over the campus, only dogs could be seen in the

cafeteria and grounds, while the library was overflowing with study groups as

were the hostels and common rooms…. It was a week of high stress levels,

sleepless nights and long anxious days.

FAM Extra Classes:

May he live a hundred years for teaching us ignorant people. He, who is the

pride of Bihar and the guide of all. He, who fights for your rights and teaches

you through the nights. He, when in high pitch he speaks, his voice creaks!

Vacation Trepidation:

The first term ended with a bang, phew!! The long eagerly holidays had start-

ed and students had their bags packed, and with big smiles on their faces had

begun their journey towards their respective homes in groups, to the airports,

railway stations and bus stands. Suddenly, the land of GIM seemed to have

lost all its colour and was bleak without all the buzz. However the GIM

Facebook page remained alive, even miles apart, everyone was still

connected.

Hoodie Wars:

The hoodie wars continue with every club releasing

their own merchandise in different colours, with logos

and such stuff, keeping us updated of every little

change they make.

“First they spam you, then they spam you more, then they fight each other,

and then you pay for their hoodies.” - Gandhi

Events tornado:

After a very pleasant one week long term break, coming back to our second

home; GIM, left most of us homesick, but thanks to a number of awesome

events that were organized by our very own clubs; Mecca, Prayas, Scopes, we

soon returned to better spirits. All the events were bursting with

participation, and were huge successes. ‘Street Football’ by Prayas was a big

win, both amongst the sports fans as well as those who had never kicked a

ball in their life. Mecca’s ‘Buzzoookaa’ brought out the talent of acting within

us in combination with marketing. Scopes’ ‘Shoot em up’, took us

back to our childhood days. Even though we were drenched in

water and hit with a crazy amount of balloons, these events made

us feel at home.

Umbrella Thieves Continue:

Sanquelim being one of the highest rainfall receiving places in

Goa, has been blessing us with its showers from the very first day

of the academic year. Somehow however, in the month of September it took

us all by surprise by packing shop and leaving us basking in the bright hot sun

shine. Ah but we were fooled for the showers are back leaving us stranded

while it pours for, even if we remember to equip ourselves, the mysterious

umbrella thief is still at large.
