Otherwise, its been an extremely busy 3 days... lots of homework, hardly any sleep, some work for the ISB LS, ELP marketing plan, thunderbird innovation challenge... I also looked at the smart manager case competition today... they have an interesting LBS case open for bschool students... Thinking about entering this one...

Nowadays there are so many bschools in India, one offshoot has been the number of bschool competitions... As of now, Dan who is coordinating ISB's participation in bschool events, if having a tough time ensuring that he tells us about all the events happening, deadlines and also keep track of who is participating and who is winning... at the same time, its an opportunity for many of us to participate in an interesting array of events...

I happened to notice the BPCL scholarships on the web... any school students or post grad students interested, visit, http://www.bharatpetroleum.com/scholarship/newuser.asp

Have been reading this book "the maverick" as part of the change management course... we are required to do a book review... the book should ideally be something that talks about change management at an organizational level... I suggest this book to anyone interested in open book management... author: ricardo semler...

thats it for today... running to another meeting... too many things to do and too many meetings to attend... this is beginning to resemble my workplace in my previous life!!!
