and for their institute too.Businesses today are treading the most dynamic times ever. You

tackle one issue and there are hundred others staring at your face.

These are testing times and it’s not the leader who’s put to test

here. Only those who can quickly adapt to the situation and act out-

of-the-box, sail through. In other words–only the learners sail

through.

Across all our campuses we acquire talent (students) not on the

hollow claims of converting them into leaders. We simply offer them

a helping hand. We are no transfiguration experts.

KNOWLEDGE EDGEWHAT THEY DON’T TEACH AT BUSINESS SCHOOLCreative thinkers and not mere managers is the

need of the hour. How is management

education responding to this need? Find out.

Tusiness environments today stay transformed owing to

various factors. Rapid advancements in information

technology, deepening of globalisation, changes in business

practices, cross functionality among others, have changed

our paradigms. What the world demands today are not mere

managers, but creative thinkers and effective leaders.

While the goal of management education is to create leaders, one institute dares

tread a different path. Jaipuria Institute of Management, born of a business

house celebrates the spirit of learning instead. The path is simple and clear.

Learning after all is the genesis of effective leadership. The ability and the

freedom to think from all possible angles is the starting point. Jaipuria creates the

environment and the curriculum to facilitate active thinking. Active thinkers

become aware about their Self as much as the businesses they are a part of. And

this very awareness creates the stage for these students to start their learning.

Once you ask the right questions, you seek out your possible solutions. You

absorb and assimilate, you learn. But learning is never an end in itself. From the

learning that you absorb comes a new question, a new thought.

The culture at Jaipuria propels students to step out of the box, to think afresh and

to discover anew. Innovation becomes a way of life. Students at Jaipuria thrive on

risks. And this puts them in centre stage wherever they go. Leadership therefore

becomes their next natural step.

B

The first lesson that a student gets here is that learning is a

continuous journey; it goes on for a lifetime. Effective leaders-

these students at Jaipuria are hence driven to a path of

continuous Self Learning. At Jaipuria Institute, learning remains

the core of all pedagogy. And the student Self, at its epicenter.

04

THINKAsk questions, contemplate, explore new avenues. After

all, what you think is what you become.

LEADTake charge, blaze a

new trail, be a trendsetter.Management is doing things

right, leadership is doing the right things.

JAIPURIA’S LOOP OF KNOWLEDGE

LEARNING WITH THE MIND. LEADING WITH THE HEART.

AT JAIPURIA, EDUCATION IS EMPOWERMENT. THAT IS WHY

06

Your attitude will determine your altitude of Life. Have a positive attitude towards your seniors, class mates, situations etc. You can improve your attitude when you undertake new experiences.

To start with “think globally and act locally.” Read magazines and conceptualise global trends.

Effective people are not problem–minded, they are opportunity–minded. Think for various alternatives that can resolve the problem, that may exist today, or that may surface tomorrow.

I think, if one avoids criticism, comparison and complaint the attitude will undergo a change. Practice to live your decision & avoid procrastination.

ATTITUDEOthers will get influenced when they trust you. Practice trust - why should people trust you? Because you exhibit confidence, authenticity and concern for others.

Being a good listener helps - listen to people and respond properly. Disagree without being disagreeable. Express your ideas without getting into conflict.

In short, if you strive to be a good human being you will stand a better chance of being hired in campus.

REFLECTIONSFACULTY SPEAK

DR. PRATIBHA WASAN(JAIPURIA NOIDA)

For Associate Dean and Professor, Dr. Kavita Pathak, the secret of classroom participation is “Engaging with the students and making them curious to learn more.”

As an enabler for learning she believes in “providing cues and teasing young minds with stimulating questions”. An MBA and PhD, Dr. Pathak has over 20 years of teaching experience, which includes not only the time spent with Jaipuria Institute, Lucknow but also her four-year teaching and research stint at UQ Business School, University of Queensland, Australia. And what is her message for students? “You are what you think you can be. Challenge the limits and take life as it comes.” She signs off.

The spirit of excellence-that is what Dr. Pratibha Wasan brings to her classrooms everyday. Her teaching style, pedagogy and management orientation in the course engages students for learning. “My industry experience helps me establish and deliver the connection between theory and practice. It has given me an insight into corporate functioning, its behaviour, value systems, culture, challenges and realities, which I now pass on to my students.”

The academic experience for her is “ongoing, delightful and self-rewarding”. She also adds that Faculty Development Programmes have helped her use interactive, practical course content and pedagogical tools.

THE UNFINISHED PROMISE OF TALENT MANAGEMENT

TI am a notable fan of technology. I think HR people are scared and shy

away from technology. However, in the case of Talent Management,

the phrase “Talent Management Software” doesn’t mean anything.

In most cases, it’s a case of calling “Human Resources Management

Systems” in a new way. If as a HR professional think buying, the

former will help you to implement a successful Talent Management he premise of “Talent Management” is simple. programme, you’ve just been sold snake oil.A company identifies its most superior

When so called “futurists” cannot predict the future, how can past performance data but also psychometric tests, development linear thinking business and HR folks even know what kind of centers, coaching and mentoring. “talent” would be needed to be “future-proof”?

might not have seen as “talent” a year ago might become the

people who are needed to make it successful.

The first thing Talent Management systems do is identify “Talent” So while the stated intent of Talent Management programmes are based on performance. To do better, they try to look at consistent laudable, the success and therefore the ROI are not very easy to performance over a period of time. However, they often forget that quantify. So what does a HR group do? It should focus on building successful performance is also dependent on a context of a resilience and “learnability” rather than designing prescriptive myriad of enabling factors that might not be available in other programmes.roles/positions even in the same company. Some examples are a

manager who lets the performer focus on his strength and takes

away the de-energising part of the job and gives it to other team

members. When this performer moves to a new role with a more

conventional manager the de-energising aspects of the job fall into

his lap, and might impact his performance overall. Same is true of

the high performer who was successful in a business where the

processes were well set who might not perform spectacularly in a

business unit that is being set up from scratch.

“The placement month at Jaipuria Indore was nothing less

than a learning month. Every day I learnt something new.

Every day I got to know new details about the job markets in

India and across the globe. The placement at Amazon.com

was off-campus. I went through fiverounds of interviews,

including the aptitude test and psychometric tests.

WHAT I LOOK FOR IN MBA STUDENTSDr. Virendra P Singh, Executive Director- Human Resources & Chief Pupil

primordial question as follows: Do you own your life and career?

If yes, can you share some examples, which can corroborate your

claim and self belief? My take is as follows: If you have a

reasonably high sense of ownership, you take charge. If you take

charge, it is a good omen for my team and my business goals; as I

would not have to push you to make you believe that your personal

& professional ownership is a good starting point for both of us.

No wonder, quite a few employers use psychometric instruments

to measure this attribute amongst aspiring candidates.

anticipate changes in macro & micro environment? If yes, how

attributes. Culled out after an informal round of discussions with a

“Ability to adapt to situations and
