Year (2021) End Gratitude

Before yearend holiday period kicks in, I would like to pass my humble gratitude to those who made this year a remarkable for me. Ongoing journey of Executive MBA is exhilarating and its worth to express respect to some of the professors and friends who have made this journey so far, a lifetime experience.

Gary Stockport : Thanks for your valuable lessons for strategy & sustainability. As you taught, there should be strategy for every goal we want to achieve. Create a strategy if it’s not there and follow it religiously to accomplish the goal. Think strategically and there are no short cuts. Thanks a lot prof, for sharing life's valuable lessons.

Boman Moradian : I have never believed "GOD" does exist on earth. After interacting with you, I was sure "GOD of Operations" does exist on this planet. You have taught me how to solve every problem mathematically, whether we maximize or minimize but problem can be solved. I am blessed to have teachings from you and truly it was an experience.

Mukesh Manek : Sir, you have taught me to ensure balance between asset & liabilities. if there is no balance we will end up losing everything. Learnings from your classes remain a best experience throughout the journey.

Mats Lingblad : You made me thought that innovation is about evolving to the current need. It’s must to change or disrupt to shake the old beliefs

Hansel D'Souza : Prof, you are brand in yourself and it’s a pleasure to learn from such an esteemed personality. Personal effectiveness is important but marketing of same is more important is valuable learnings from you.

Umesh Kothari : I learned from you that there should be measuring criteria for every defined goal. if we are not measuring, we are not executing. Be it the way you are & give your best is important learning carried from your classes.

Dr. Rachana Baid : Prof, you taught me that life needs a balance of equity & debt. If any of them is imbalanced than results are not optimum.

Tristan Chong, PhD : You are energy prof, your passion has taught me to reinvent again in this digital world. Thanks for teaching to do tasks passionately.

Dr Bhanu Ranjan : Negotiation is not just about agreeing or disagreeing, it’s all about creating a large pie for everyone. More we create more we leave behind as legacy. Thanks for teaching on how to create bigger pies.

Dr. Tarun Pasricha : Keep balance in all areas. Appropriate balance is must in all areas be it life or organization. Balanced score card is must for better results. Thanks a lot prof for maximizing learning in this journey.

Would also like to thank Prof Muniza, Prof Ashish Patil as they are not in my connections, but insights shared by them will remain forever with me.

Now its turn to thank lifelong friends. It would have been tough, had you all been not there to support. Hundreds of WhatsApp in few minutes with multiple options to solve a problem is testimonial of our friendship.

Nuno Pereira Netra Mehta : You taught me communication is very important. Vegetarians must clearly communicate what he/she eats otherwise ends up eating spinach only.

vibhu nair : You taught me finish to everything today only and don't rely on tomorrow.

Wish you all safe and happy 2022. Happy New year!
