Zeitgeist and the move on....



So here we are… Zeitgeist – our baby is done with… The trendsetters are proud, we have just started off a tradition. Our first corporate event was a success. It was great fun all through the last two months… Just the night before Zeitgeist I was talking to Bhushan – the professor with a goatie – seems like it was just yesterday, when we named our event Zeitgeist – seems like it was just yesterday, when we formed committees to plan and organize the event – seems like it was just yesterday when we received our instructions to manage the show by the Smiling Samurai a.k.a. Dr. Sunil Rai. Time has flown, time has been cherished, just substantiates why we named the event – Zeitgeist –“Spirit of the time”. All those days of brainstorming, on how we would do this and do that has paid off well. Though there were a lot of eleventh hour decisions we took, we pretty much enjoyed preparing and conducting the event. I must mention, the dignitaries made the event more special… Dr. Bala Bala Chandran was awesome, he interacted with all of us initially… sad that he had to leave early. Dr. Jagdish Sheth is a killer – I mean he is just so so inspiring. I have no words to explain how we felt interacting with him. He is an institution by himself. He is … I don’t know what to write, anything said is not enough. Prof. Ton was so engrossed in the event, we can’t wait to have him here in August when he starts off his lectures in our second term. Mr. A Mahendran – we felt so special to have our chairman, he made us feel like a family… And I shouldn’t forget Dr. Sunil Rai – the man behind the show, our support, our mentor… he was just the way he always is ( in fact he has promised us an outbound trip at the end of the term to mark our success). On a special note, not to forget everyone at MBS, The Dean – Dr. Rakesh P Singh, Prof. Girish, the PGPM team, the admin team, everyone… they all made it happen.
Last but not the least… Trendsetters we rocked… without each other this wouldn’t have been possible…. J
