Classes are going on. It has been busy. It is the networking week they say. Did little bit of a mingle with the other MBA students today.
I attended the panel discussion of Felix Rodriguez, The CEO of CITGO. He opened his speech with a quote, “London has Big Ben, France has Eiffel tower and Boston has the CITGO” Even though this sign has been one of the oldest landmark in the city of
The overall lecture series was ok. Honestly speaking, I was not as impressed as I had compared to the ones I have seen. So far, the best one for me was from Lord Ian Brown, the CEO of BP.

A leader with a DRIVE, A leader with a chutzpa!
My marketing class was fun. We did a case study of ADIDAS and Cartier. Two powerful brands with two different marketing strategy and niche.

It is about 12:00 am. I just finished my Stat homework. Mr. D is doing his work and I am taking a break. I thought I would catch up with the blog. I am also watching “The Charlie Rose Show,” one program that I have not stopped watching since the sophomore year in college. I love this show. Rarely on television can you find intelligent, sustained conversation between grown-ups about subjects that are genuinely interesting. Charlie Rose is INDEED an exception.
I had chance to watch, Bill gates and Warrant buffet, Vinod khosla, Amartya sen and he is interviewing Mr. Mikhail Gorbachev tomorrow. Right now, Mr. Rose is interviewing Paul Volcker, the president of World Bank and Nandan Nilekan,the CEO of INFOSYS.Last week, I had a chance to watch the interview of George Soros and John Grishm, my favourite author.
Let me share one interesting thing! I have managed to watch most of the movies based on his book. The favorite one so far has been “The firm” and “The runaway juries.”
I have a long day tomorrow. Good night!
