Competitive Spirit in The Air' Aids Us Win
from all the prestigious b-schools of the country like IIM ABCLKI, XLRI, SP Jain, XIMB,
MICA, NITIE, IITs and more. Be it the flagship marketing event at IIM Indore where
Team case-busters won 1st runner up position or the Pan India print ad competition
by XIMB in association with Skoda in which we won the 1 st runner up position or The
Business Strategy Simulation game of XIMB, IIM Raipur was able to establish its
mark always. As I am writing this article today, I am waiting for a result from the
case-study round of the flagship marketing event of IIM Calcutta. It gives me
immense pride to disclose the fact that IIM Raipur has 2 teams in the Top 40 out of
700 teams that participated for this competition. Definitely, its our True Blood. You
might wonder that what has the institution to do with the success of the students in
the competitions. Its more of personal skills that make you better than the rest but
trust me, the rigorous presentations sessions along with the constant knowledge
sessions by the interest groups didnt just enhance our knowledge but also added to
our confidence level. Public speaking is not everyones forte but IIM Raipur gives
special attention to this. And, when I say special, I mean really special. Every other
day, students present on some or the other topic. Be it the interest groups or
faculties, everyone adds to the input. Also, when you talk to the best brains of the
country and gain varied perspectives about the same problem statement you come
up with more innovative solutions. The cases discussed in classes will add on to the
perspectives and you will have a real life understanding about solutions which when
implemented the right way are assured of giving you an edge over others and the
students of IIM Raipur have been proving it time and again. And its not just about
my team but also about all the other teams from PGP 2015-17 batch who won at
IMT Ghaziabad, ISB Hyderabad, XLRI, IIM Indore and made it to the finals at IIM
Ahmedabad, who believe that the air at IIM Raipur has a competitive spirit in it and
it aids our performance when we step out.
