First Day of GMITE@IIMB!!

Lots of Guys have requested to share my experiences of GMITE @ IIMB.
I am starting with the First day @ IIMB, This topic i just wanted to tell you my personal experience.

Here we go...

This was the day, Jan 22nd 2007 Morning 8.30. It was cloudy day, sun rays started coming. But it’s still not bright. It was yet another typical Bangalore day. I was ready and reported to the registration counter in the MDC at IIM, Bangalore. The GMITE class will be starting in few minutes, informed by one of the IIMB office staff.
I finished the registration and went to the Auditorium. The class was almost packed with other 74 students (Counted except me, as the class strength is 75). We were welcomed by Program Director, Prof. Raghu Nath and Prof. S. Krisna, and welcome speech by Executive Program Officer, IIMB. He informed that we will be spending next 1 year at IIM, Bangalore (Which we already knew ;)). We need to come early at 7 AM for classes, as he doesn’t want us to be late for the class. We can have breakfast and lunch here in MDC, IIMB campus.

After that we started self introduction by all of us i.e. All 75 Students one by one. I was trying to figure out who is from the company I belongs to. But you know weather its my luck or no luck no one was from my company. Then a class photograph of GMITE2007 Batch...( I guess)This will be kind memorable photograph for all of us, to rememeber the 1 year we spent in IIMB in future...
What a nice start. Isn’t It.!!!

The first day session was taken by Raja Natesan, IIMB visiting Faculty and President and CEO, ITQ and Galileo India. It was based on understanding self and self improvement and leadership development. It was wonderful to see Raja talking and preaching on the
NLP (Neuro Linguistic programming). After the first break I met my old friend Sumant, I met him after 12 years in IIMB. Actually we were in same school in Rourkela, Orissa during our 11th and 12th. It was purely incidental. Again I thought what a great start.!! What you say??

I will write more on my experiences of GMITE@IIMB ...keep following this blog.. Cheers
