Some After thoughts after MBA from IIM, Lucknow (Noida)


We all may agree that the Working Manager Program - MBA - classroom based course was an immense learning. Though it cannot be captured in words but it definitely would stay imbibed in all of us for the life to come. Some may utilize the learning now, some later, but it is certainly going to be a great asset for us. 

Some thoughts on the learning:

  • Networking is the key
  •   - Make friends
  •   - Meet often
  •   - Share Problems
  •   - Play/Eat/Celebrate together
  • Doing Project work is the real learning, it gives immense confidence. It teaches us the practical aspect of learning and builds those concepts for ready later use.
  • Attend as many classes as possible, it builds our concepts - Conceptual Learning is the key. (For me the choice of subjects preferably was decided based on Professor feedback.)
  • Become an entrepreneur while doing the course - that would utilize your MBA skills the most!

When we finally master a tough job, we make it look easy!! But this time I would have to mince words and say that completing WMP wasn't easy at all. The toil for two and half years 'continuously' has made us strong and 'stretchable'. We have become better time managers and know our priorities better. The whole experience has made us more confident.!

Lastly, if I were the CEO of a company and were to hire - I would certainly consider the WMP-ites from IIM Lucknow, Noida for sure!
