For my internship, I worked as a marketing executive for branding and advertising at Aspect Professional Consultancy for three months. The job profile involved putting up shops, conducting events and increasing footfalls at Sigma Mall. It also included branding of Sigma mall. We focused on handicraft products-branded and semi branded. While we were given a target of Rs. 5 lakh profit, we surprised the management of Sigma Mall by achieving a profit of Rs. 20 lakh. We organized events such as Ms. Bangalore, Fashion Show and competition for children with lots of enthusiasm. In the end, it was strategic thinking, persistence and zeal that made the team of National School of Business a big success at Aspect Professional Consultancy.

The Global Mindset Trail was a fantasy and dream come true. It was the best trip of my life that I can think of. We were in a group of 60 people, which is not a small group. It was so fun and exciting to explore France, Spain and Dubai in a big group. It was a great exposure, to know their lifestyles, mindset, business etiquettes and culture. Visiting their churches, monuments and museums was like a fairytale. Surfing and Desert Safari was fun, adventurous and exciting. A tribute goes to our two important pillars, Prof. Sridharamurthy and Prof. Dineshprasad, who made this trip a successful and interesting one.

The Global Mindset Trail to Europe was an unbelievable and memorable trip. The moments I enjoyed for the whole one year during MBA in National School of Business were equal to those 10 days that I spent in Europe along with friends and faculty members. The trail provided me with significant knowledge about European culture and their language. We performed a cultural show in front of a huge crowd in France. It is a thrilling experience in Europe when you represent India and perform. Overall, the trip to Spain, France and Dubai, was the best experience of my life.

I think I have been different right from childhood. Just doing what the crowd does turns me off. I firmly believe that one will never become successful unless he is aware of his strengths and weaknesses. I started my own business when I was only 22. I somewhere read once that it would be a terrific innovation if you could get your mind to stretch a little further than the next wisecrack. This motivated me a lot and I have been working hard to live up to the quote.

It is said that if you are not falling every now and again, it's a sign that you are not doing anything very innovative and perhaps this was reason enough for me to choose between business and equipping myself with more skills for doing business far more effectively and innovatively. I chose the later and joined National School of Business.

National School of Business is my kind of business school. It's different from the herd and places a lot of emphasis on creativity and innovation.
