Guest Lecture:

1. Mr. Shriram Sanjeevi 

The guest lecturer Mr. Sanjeevi spoke to us about his retail career, his losses and triumphs. He started with his origin, went on to his education, his first job and then his career in retail and Entrepreneurship. 

He spoke to us about his humble beginnings and his growth over the years, the twists and turns in his career and the advantages of trying new things. He told his about the changing ecinomy, the importance of knowledge and know-how. 

The lecture was inspiring and moving. His experiences are surely going to influence us for the better. Nevertheless, it was very one sided. It was a speech with barely any interaction. The guest lecturer did not give us the space to question. Also, he could have spoken more on his start-ups and given more detail to his work life than chronicle his times as a retail man. This would have helped us further to understand the real life work place.

Jegan Vijayarajan of Capgemini spoke to us about the changes in technology over the years, the emergence of updation in the work force, knowledge, skills development, knowledge and above all automatics. He spoke to us about corporate expectations, the changing nature of the market, target marketing, strategic management and how robotics play a part in the management sphere. His lecture was incredibly apt to our generation of automated work force and his experiences and knowledge is  necessary for us to understand how the situation in management will be in a few years. Although the time was limited and the lecture was too complex for all of us to follow, his ideas are emergent to comprehend and very relevant.
