Dear All,
I have started a blog to share my views on different dimensions of life. The first entry is taken from one of the chapters of my yet to be published book, Be The CEO of Your life.
This is a five minute read so do take out time and share your feedback ( Good or BAD, all would be appreciated).
http://vivekgupta1977.blogspot.com/
I shall be sharing my views across various subjects from Online marketing, Business Anaytics to CAT/GMAT cracking techniques in coming days.
Regards
Vivek Gupta

Forthcoming activities - Mail from the SAC
Dear all,
Greetings from IIMB!
First: Oreintation week for incoming batch of 2009
As part of the orientation week for the incoming batch of 2009 we have a panel discussion scheduled on 28th of June (saturday, Morning) on "Choice of career and career development". The panel discussion is expected to have anywhere between 3 to 10 year senior alumni of IIMB.
The incoming batch, though a mix of people with prior experience and freshers shall immensly benefit if you could spare some time to share your experience and thought process in decision making towards your career. The discussion shall revolve around how best a student can utilise his time on campus towards taking the right decisions in chosing the right path.
The interactive session is expected to last for an hour and a half at the maximum. We shall be obliged if you could forward your details and travel plans so that necessary arrangements can be made in advance.
Second: Ten year alumni re-union at IIMB
We had the '97 batch alumni re-union last year at IIMB during second week of June 2007.
This year we can schedule the re-union on 21st or 28th of June as per convenience of the alumni.
Kindly send in your suggestions on the same and also the confirmation of your participation.
Third: Seminar on Leadership at IIMB on 15th of August
We intend to hold a seminar on leadership on 15th of August at IIMB. For this we shall be inviting alumni of IIMB who are country head or business heads or enterprenuers or social activists- essentially leaders in their respective choice of careers. On the same day perhaps we could have the re-union of '94 batch alumni as well. We are still in the process of giving shape to the event so kindly offer your suggestions on whom we could invite, his/her contact details. extent and scope of the seminar.
An event of such a magnitude would require large scale sponsorhips so please provide us with contact details of people whom we could approach for sponsorship either within our alumni network or outside.
Kindly forward this mail to your batchmates of IIMB and other IIMB alumni you are in contact with.
Thank you.
Best Regards,Student Alumni Committee

Anusmaran 2008 (Mumbai)
PATHETIC ....
Organized in some unheard of Peninsula Grand Hotel in 'Saki Naka' ... I have attended better birthday parties! The steep entry charges, unenthusiatic organization and zero follow up ensured that this alumni meet goes down in history as one of the worst Mumbai will get to see...couldn't believe that the 'organizational abilities' of the new stock of MBAs could hit these nadirs.
Attendance was primarily from 2004 and 2005 batches. Could see a lot of familiar faces around (and embarrasingly couldn't put a name to those faces when they came and wished hello...getting early symptoms of Alzheimers I guess) The hall was low roofed, small and shady...music was too loud for conversation, and pathetic. The dance floor was a poor apology of a dance floor and anyway there were not too many people enthu to dance...Choice of drinks was very 'restrictive' with no room for breezer and wine drinkers. You had to hit the Vodka circuit, Beer belly circuit or the scotch brigade. I tried hitting the vodka with orange juice topped up with two tequila shots (generously sponsored by Vibhor)...and had a great time throwing up in the next morning Kingfisher flight to Delhi...just reminded that 30 is not 25. Vodka is not beer. Tequila is Tequila. And Aukat mein rehna chahiye...
Great to see Kotler after ages...and also good to have the annual catching up with Daby, Vishal, Nitin and gang. Newly marrieds Pirbhu was seen with his wife and Doley with Hubby. Padam Chabra had also joined in...
I am sure other reporters would have more to say...I think that the guys who returned from the gate did do an intelligent thing...
