Happy Teacher's day..


Class Representative please manage your classmates. All the students please respond to the roll call. Dr. S K Mishra, Prof Ashish Garg, Prof Mahima Thakur..

Yup this was the way the Teacher's day celebration commenced. Today the faculty were playing the students and the students were the task masters. The day was not going to be easy for our students of the day. There were several lessons lined up for them. And the momentry masters of the show were relishing the opportunity.

After the attendance the first lesson for the students was about being organised. Five of the students were called on the stage and they had to take down some notes, put their laptops alongwith the chargers in the bag, notebooks and pen. All in their proper places. Results being ruled by Prof ............



Now that we were through with the lesson on being organised, they needed to be taught to be presentable. So the next set of five students on the stage please(See we are polite, we talk to the students with a please). Now let's see who is the quickest one to tie the knot. Oops!! It was not the knot, but the tie. Tie a tie. 5..4..3..2..1..go.. Damn!! this was not supposed to be a lesson on team work. Why are two of the students working together on the tie. Something is wrong. The two are disqualified. So the results stated Prof S K Jain is most presentable while Prof Megha and Prof Kirti, you are debarred from any further exams.

Innovation and perseverance are two most treasured traits of any MBA graduates, specially when today we are targeting to train entrepreuners. So lets see if these are abound in our students. Students please transfer the popcorn from the first glass to the other glass with the help of a single straw and you are not allowed to touch the glass or the popcorn rang out the instruction. The puzzle was cracked soon enough. One of the students started sucking his lung full, it seemed he wanted to drink the popcorn with the straw. But now the popcorn was stuck to the straw and the race on its way. Others immediately caught up and the popcorns started moving around. Prof ........... was declared the most perseverant.

Management is not a one man show. You need a team which understands your signals without you ever having to voice them. Or thus goes the wisdom. So, let us see if our students are good at communicating. Five pair of students on the stage please. And plaeas do not form PAIRS. And the students were playing dumbsherads. Jung, Lagan, ...... Gosh!! we need to work on their comm skills. Only two out of five could read it correctly. Sounds like Prof ........... was the best communicator.


Finally we know that any MBA graduate cannot be successful unless they are given the taste of personal success making them driven to achieve lots more of it. The graduation degrees were at stake. Let the Bulls eye roll out. Guys you got to hit the pile of rocks and girls please master the hoops. The condition was, the more you hit the better will be your degree/diploma. The ball, literally was set rolling. Rocks were strewn around..Hoops got battered. And the fun reached its cresando. There was wild cheering at every success. Both students for the day and the students were engrossed alkie. But as every class comes to and end, every good thing in life passes. The day had to end. So we dispersed after a small prize distribution ceremony for the winners of the events.

Day 6..Introduction to the Alladin..

Yup fellows, this is the same Alladin and the genie. He suddenly appeared in our class today. Naah..not in flesh. But as an example. What the hell! What has Walt Disney got to do with management. Seems it does, after all.

The reference was to the quintessential magical line spoken by the lovely blue genie, right out of the chirag, and sometimes from inside the chirag too (Yup I saw him do that too a couple of times, when he was feeling too pally with Alladin, and it was to early in the morning. Lazy lazy genie).

kya hukum hai mere aaka?

And the lesson was, even tough the genie could do anything in the world, all that Alladin had to do was to ask. Still the genie could not read Alladin's mind. So, the most important thing that makes a manager into a successful manager, is. His ability to properly communicate. Both, while explaining his rationale and while listening to other people's opinions.

And thus started the journey, to becoming a manager..a successful one(This was how our first lecture started). I am listening..Post your comments.

Take care everyone *peace*
