HOME MAKER or HOME ENGINEERS

My mother is a house wife. Since childhood I have found her to be the busiest person in the world. Her job commences at 6 AM and don’t know when it ends; because I have never seen her sleeping before me. Adding to this, she was my first teacher too. “We make home. Call us house-ENGINEERS ”, says Woman and Child Development Minister Krishna Tirath. The Government of India is mulling on a formula to put an annual cost to the housewives’ work which makes every housewife entitled to some monthly pay. The husbands will have to discharge a certain percentage of their income for their grueling job of keeping house, if they are staying back home and doing household chores. Actually this idea in India finds its origin from a UK based website. It, for the first time, estimated the value of an average British housewife’s job. They made the calculations based on the average wages professionals would get for discharging the work which a housewife does - cooking, cleaning, doing laundr...

SJMSOM - The Kingdom Beside The Lake

By
Pursuing MBA these days may be a common thing for people. But if the MBA is persued from a Top management institute, the journey can make it worth remembering. And when I remember my journey at Shailesh J. Mehta School of Management (SJMSOM), IIT Bombay, I still feel proud that I was part of such excellent institution. I am an alumnus of SJMSOM, IIT Bombay, (Batch of 2014-16). I had a work experience of more than a year with a leading IT firm prior to joining IIT Bombay’s Master of Management Program. I assume that you are an MBA aspirant if you are reading this and will be taking CAT 2016. I was in your position a couple of years ago and can relate to your state of mind completely. An MBA is not about how good or bad you were in the past, but the programme's two years will be greatly instrumental in shaping your career ahead. At first, I had misgivings about joining IIT Bombay for a management degree. But, getting associated to the brand IIT and being part of the larger II...
