Guest lectures @ Hyderabad Central University


I and my MBA friends participated in the management meet conducted by HCU. So as a part of opening ceremony, they arranged guest lectures by business leaders from the industy. It was awesome lectures, so here is the zest of it, thought would be useful to each and every one of us. 

The Management meet was termed as "Unnati-2007" and was held on 9 & 10 Feburary 2007 @HCU.

Mr. A. Murali Krishna Reddy Chairman "Green Park" and Mr. Vivekananda  of "Visakhapatnam Steel Plant" were the chief guests. 

Sri Murali Krishna: Experience speaks

1. "If you have something in you, you can offer, the  whole world is waiting" ~ the world is flat

2. Bee concept: Follow how a bee achieves nector from flowers
   If the bee doesnt get nector in one flower, bee dont go home, it still tries.

Learning: "Try and try until you succeed"

3. Chalta hai (Hindi) will not work. We have great opportunity, but we have to work.

4. Reproducing in the exams is not important, but mastering the concept is.
5. Work on creative solutions: think out of box, looking at a problem from all directions and coming up wih best alternative solutions.

6. Live in situations: play a significant role in any situation, dont stand and stare at it.

7. Committment + Fire + Learning + inspiration + Involvement = You Go Places

                Offer more, expect less
                doing more, with less
                learn to lead yourself and others by example
                build vision and share it with all
                be competant, acquire knowledge
                harder you work, luckier you get
                the more you face hardership, more stronger you become


Sri Vivekananda: To be an entrepreneur

bench mark against the best
create a good uniform culture
set as an example to others
"depending up on how you behave, you will get the response"
be ethical to the most
we need to have a goal, then only we will strive hard to achieve it
implement what you experience
disciplined, hardworking and being passionate is what you need.

Both the guest lectures were very useful and thrown a valuable insight in to corporate world.

Thanks to HCU students 2006-08 batch for conducting such a great event.
