My focus in CIMDR will be to help all my publics , to develop their personality. My philosophy is Peter Drukar’s Statement “Innovate of Die”.
Business and industry being integral part of the society cannot remain untouched of this disruption. As a B-school we are closely monitoring the change that the industry is passing through. International trade pattern is shifting drastically. Business models that were effective before Covid may not be relevant in the era after Covid. If business models are redefined after this pandemic, then the skills and knowledge required to run these models would in turn show a change as well.
Every problem has an opportunity hidden in it and todays situation is no exception. Dear Students I am very positive about avenues that will open up for those who are fast to adapt and adjust to these changes. Computing skills, Analytical Skills, communication skills, e-communication skills, digital marketing skills, IOT, Artificial intelligence , machine learning , business analytics , skills required to work from home, investment management skills, are some of the skills that will be in high demand in current scenario.
The CIMDR has pragmatic approach in adapting to micro and macro environmental aspects. We have proactively redesigned our student development model that will address requirements of new business models and new Economy. Even during lockdown the CIMDR was fast to cope up with online training, teaching and evaluation. Graduates of this institute are not only equipped with professional skills but also connected with social issue making them a humane manager. Friends as a head of this institute, I assure you that management, staff and students of this institute will always abide themselves to the values and philosophy laid down by great founders and pioneers of Deccan Education Society.
