Thought Leadership

The seminar course on Thought Leadership closed yesterday, with the exception of the final exam. A wide variety of presentations from student groups were the only component of the course. It went off very well, with a lot of learnings on subjects like how to create fun based companies (Walt Disney and Richard Branson were topics of two presentations) to Genetics and what it can do for us. Leonardo Da Vinci, Ayn Rand, and Scott Adams were a few other thought leaders covered. War, terrorism, environmental degradation were some more themes explored.

A couple of guest sessions by Jogeswari and Padmapriya, both exploring completely new things themselves, added to the course significantly. I am writing a case study on Golftripz, the company that Jogeswari, Madhav Misra and Ajit co-founded. It has a video add-on which brings in novelty.

I will add some new dimensions to this in the next offering to try and innovate some more. Meanwhile, a meeting in Dubai and a wedding to attend in Jabalpur are going to keep me busy, plus the convocation that comes up on March 11th. There wil be a couple of batch farewell parties before that, I guess.
