Dr. Bharat Singh, Aditya Birla Group, Interacted with Students of JBIMS, Mumbai

As a part of the student development initiative through interaction with the industry stalwarts and corporate personalities, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies recently hosted Dr. Bharat Singh, Chairman of Services Business Review Council, Aditya Birla Group.

Being a management graduate from IIM Calcutta, Dr. Singh completed his doctorate program from JBIMS. It was an honour for the students to get guidance and learning from the illustrious alumnus of JBIMS.

Dr. Singh started talking by narrating his experiences as a management graduate. He urged the students to give due importance to studies and build themselves to face challenges in industry. Citing examples, Dr. Singh emphasized the need to give back to the society in whatever way one can and ensure a sustainable life for oneself.

In today’s dynamic environment, Dr. Singh also talked on the importance of having a goal in life and also putting in efforts to achieve those goals. It is necessary that each one carves out a journey for oneself based on one’s liking and passion. In such a competitive environment, it is possible to get carried away with the lure of money and recognition. In his words, “The one with the highest salary is not always the happiest person”.

Responding to a question, Dr. Singh cited an example of ethical business model that The Aditya Birla Group follows to explain the role of the management in adapting to the ever-changing scenario. With the dynamic environment, the scope for growth is huge; and so is the lure of getting into unethical practices. It is important for the young managers to get their principles right and set up a goal based on the kind of career they are looking for. The efforts and approach during the two years of management studies should be directed towards that goal.

The learning from the session was immense and the students were left longing for more by the end of the session. The lecture by Dr. Bharat Singh not only motivated students to go the distance but also gave them confidence that they are on their way to success in life.

Concluded.
