FMS fiesta

FMSs first business school fest started today very modestly....infact "modestly" is an understatement....i have seen a couple of b school fests and i know what bschool fests are made of.....as a part of the fest there is a convention as well in which top speakers of the corpoate world come and speak....

as usual im in the infra team.....rumour says that my core competecy is to speak in the wireless microphone.....but did no work today.....took part in all the on the spot events....honestly the standard of the events werent good....but kudos to all the organizers for giving their best...but their best was not good enough.....almost all the on the spot events had preliminary rounds and was more of a normal society event rather than a bschool fest event..... the prelims were mostly of the quiz format.....

the first event was a strategy game called chanakya.....the second round was a computer based simulation game.....the elimination round was no way related to strategy.....was of crossword types with clues from all across the functional areas.....organizers probably went global cos we make global strategies.... my team was waitlisted for the second round....

the second event was a M&A game.....i did not take part in it....so no comments....

the third event of the day was an HR event called influenca.....the elimination round was again in the quiz format..... the quiz master was time and again asking us to think for the obvious answers which i obviously didnt..... the quiz was poorly designed is all that i could say.......got eliminated....

the fourth event was " brand aid" my the marketing society.... prelims again in the quiz format...... dunno why the organizers asked so many biking questions......didnt even care to check for the results....

hopefully our first bschool extravaganza teaches some much needed lessons to the latter batches so that they can make it a real extravaganza....
