Solstice 2009
Sureet Hazra, ISB Class of 09, bids farewell..
“Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life,
for which the first was made†– Robert Browning.

In a way, ISB reminded me of this quote. We joined as the 8th batch so that we could eventually graduate into MBAs. And graduating we are. And like every passing out, this [...]
Engineering to Management .. expectation management ?
Expectation Management has assumed sudden significance post the subprime. It has become the favorite word for recruiters to keep hungry employees at bay and in due course has indeed become a jargon if aptly employed can help you manage an irate anything. But with my one year at ISB coming to a close, expectations have [...]
