My experiences in brief :-)

Hello everyone,

I need to give a brief introduction while writing my first blog :-)... I am Manoj Pandey, born and bread in Dhanbad(Jharkhand, India). I did my schooling from Dhanbad and New Delhi. I did my graduation (B.E.) from Bangalore. i have worked for TCS as A.S.E for nearly 2 years. Currently, pursuing my GMBA from S.P.Jain Center of Management, Dubai/Singapore. My specialization is IT Management. I am a sports fanatic person. I love sports. I am OK with my studies too.

I dreamt of becoming an I.A.S officer but time changed my ambition. Sometimes, I really wonder "What do I really want in my life?". Anyways let me write some of my experiences here. Atleast I will be sharing this with few people here :-)

Nobody in this world is 100% satisfied and the same holds true for me. When I was a kid (I mean <17 class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">benefitted me in one way or the other. Then when I got into Engineering college, I did utilize my TM skills to score and I learnt that its really useful. Through out my academic career I saw different types of people from different part of the country and more or less everybody was at par. I learnt a lot from my friends, colleagues. I mean after your parents and teachers , friends are the next best tutors. I learnt things the hard way, which made me think and act , the smart way. I've seen people changing tracks , good to bad and bad to good.

In my corporate tenure til now, I learnt tactics to tackle subordinates and more importantly seniors. I did make few awesome friends , infact I should say treasures which will be there with me wherever I go.

Coming to do MBA in a highly reputed family wasn't that easy. The brand name is so tough to hold that even a slight mistake can have disastrous outcomes. Learnt a lot in this 1 month span. Marketing management, Organizational behaviour, Soft skills sessions , guest lectures by the top-notch people etc has given me a lot of values. Sometimes I really admire myself when I take such decisions. Hope I learn a lot from this course here in Dubai. I should end my first blog by saying "You only see what your eyes want to see"... Think about it :-)

Regards,
Manoj Pandey
