Delivered a session on “Improving Quality of Administrative Functions and Processes” at Symbiosis Pune

 A higher education institution's administrative departments play a significant role in enhancing the student experience. Instead of keeping them on the periphery of the process of quality improvement, they must be given a more active and collaborative role.

I presented on "Improving Quality of Administrative Functions and Processes" at Symbiosis International University, Pune as the head of quality at Symbiosis with this objective in mind. 

Response was encouraging.

Baba Ramdev: A Marketing Mistake?



Being a marketing evangelist and an avid reader,  I always try to learn from the incidents from the different sections of life. The aim of writing this marketing blog is to experience the principle of congruity between being a blogger and evangelism for knowledge and vice-versa. I also believe that there is no fun in learning without sharing.
