SURF EXCEL

NOT MANY CAN TROD THE UNBEATEN PATH... WHEN SURF EXCEL GLORIFIED ‘STAINS’, IT DID PRECISELY THAT!
Advertisers swear by innovation in virtually every ad they conceive. But few can swear by ‘boldness’, of creating an ad on a path treaded by few, and ‘excelling’ at it, quite literally. To cut the chase, Surf Excel yet again revelled in creating a benchmark of sorts in June this year, in their latest commercial... this time actually managing to glorify dirt! Yes... we refer to Surf Excel’s Daag Acche Hain campaign, which definitely caught other detergent companies by surprise. This time round, the commercial has taken the product benefits to the consumer. Prod Priti Nair hakravarthy, Executive Creative Director, Lowe India on the challenge before her to repeat the stupendous feat that the first set of commercials had accomplished last year (remember the kids seeking revenge from a puddle), and she replies, “It was enormously challenging because this communication was clearly meant to drive a functional benefit, which was ten tough toclean areas.”

About IIPM > The Director

(As described by Professor Shubhoshekhar Bhattacharjee, Worldwide Head, Asia Development Intelligence Unit, and Faculty at IIPM, through his various interactions & talks with Dr. M. K. Chaudhuri)

"What does a rich country mean? Does it mean a country where a majority of people live above the poverty line? Or a country where even though many might die of hunger, the per capita GDP is high?"

"Would you say that India needs strengthening of the current democratic parliament for proper planned growth, or does India in reality need a government like that of China that borders on dictating changes required for coordinated economic development?"

No, these are not just any economic quiz trivia! These are, in fact, real examples of a question-answer session from a class on Comparative Planning conducted by Dr. M. K. Chaudhuri that I attended as a student at The Indian Institute of Planning & Management.

It would take umpteen number of interactions

to really understand the expanse of knowledge that lies beneath that serious disposition. Knowledge that comes with a frustrating desperation at the slow or negative pace of improvement of human life in India and of India 's economic growth! Meet Dr. M. K. Chaudhuri, Professor of Comparative Planning at IIPM, who is known amongst international economists & his inspired students for his mind moving development models, some of the most innovative country comparison economic meters, and most importantly, irrefutable logic while analyzing situations. If these are what make interacting with Dr. Chaudhuri so lively, they also set him miles ahead from the rest of the breed of 'economists'.

"Rather than attempting to ape China and equal its national income, India should own up to its deficiencies and try to now reach the economic levels of probably a country like Malaysia," says Dr. Chaudhuri, a Ph.D & D.Sc holder from Berlin School of Economics, Germany, "Because I believe that with its present policies, India can never reach anywhere near China, even in the next 100 years..."

Born in a small city of Assam , an eastern state of India , Dr. Chaudhuri wa

s always focused on education as a stepping stone for knowledge. Recalling the days while completing B. Sc from Presidency College in Calcutta ("We had a very visionary system of teaching"), the former IIM Bangalore & XLRI Jamshedpur professor also recommends that the reason for existence of every individual should be to support survival of the weakest, rather than survival of the fittest.
Quoting from his own example - he went through a very different experience while working with HLL (Unilever Group) as the Chief Economic Advisor in the initial years after completing the D.Sc from Berlin - Dr. Chaudhuri says that he decided to start IIPM because this was "an institution that could truly contribute to educating the management graduates of today that economic growth could occur only by coordinated & planned efforts between the government owned public sector and the private enterprises". In fact, during the time Dr. Chaudhuri founded the management courses department at IMT Ghaziabad, his experiences while interacting with the Indian Government's bureaucratic processes further strengthened his resolve to develop a totally government independent institution that could function without political prejudices.

Dr. Chaudhuri is credited with formulating the concept of Life Style Parity that is different from the concept of Purchasing Power Parity and looks at how two individuals living in different countries need not purchase the same items to get an equal level of satisfaction. His endeavours in developing the rural belts of India have developed into the most famous and massive Manav Vikas Kendras (Human Development Centers). With more than a hundred such centers running in various rural belts of India , Dr. Chaudhuri has provided a stepping stone to future promises like the Great Indian Dream Foundation.

Even with so many achievements behind him (though he modestly gives all the credit of his success to the people around him), Dr. Chaudhuri says that it's the future that holds greater accomplishments and promises. And in his own words, "If by giving away everything, I could rid India of its various misdemeanors, I would be privileged to give away everything many times over".

With the least surprise then that most of his students want to join him back in his various programs for national economic development, I hope and believe that what Dr. Chaudhuri has set out to achieve, would be obtained sooner than later...

IIPM Rankings

IIPM RANKED AHEAD OF FIVE OF THE IIMS RATED AS ONE OF THE FASTEST-RISING BUSINESS SCHOOL IN THE COUNTRY

Extenuating its spirited campaign 'Dare To Think Beyond the IIMs', IIPM surpassed the performance of 5 of the IIMs to be ranked 2nd (ahead of 5 of the IIMs) in the Business Barons' India's Best B-Schools Survey, January 2005, in the 'Industry Interface' index.

The survey specifically endorsed the entry of IIPM in

the 'elite list' and rated it as one of the fastest-rising business school in the country. The survey placed IIPM at rank 8 over all (exceeding 2 of the IIMs) IIPM also got ranked 3rd for its quality of course content (exceeding 4 of the IIMs). AsProf. Arindam Chaudhuri, Dean - The Indian Institute of Planning & Management puts it "Industry Interface is perhaps the only index which involves no value judgements. It is measured purely in terms of the revenue earned from consulting assignments undertaken by an institute and its faculty. It's a direct reflection of how much the industry trusts your institute's education. When you know you are the best, its tough to accept even the over all ranking any less as it involves weightages based upon value judgements on other aspects like infrastructure etc." Further, the report appreciated Prof. Arindam Chaudhuri as " the best-selling author and economist, who has made IIPM more than a business school with his innovative socio-economic philosophy".IIPM made news in 2003-2004 when it got selected by United Nations Development Program as its key partner institution in India and got invited by World Bank Institute to be on its steering committee for a National Conference in Corporate Social Responsibility. IIPM was also in news when it surpassed the performance of five of the IIMs (Indian Institutes of Management) to be ranked second in Business Barons: India's Best B-Schools survey (June 2003), in the Industry Interface index.At IIPM the mood is upbeat and every one is brimming with confidence to prove it as the best management school in the country.

The institute ostensibly the largest in terms of student strength and one of the few widely networked schools of the country has been doing well for itself over the years experimenting and incorporating many of the aspects for management education of which most only would talk about. The ethos of the institute as such is in preparing its students managers with effective communication skills, an enquiring mind , hands on action and an ability to stand up to advertisers, in that order.The institute has modelled its business carefully on the lines of the popular US business schools empowering the students to learn the best by making available all support systems such as library and high quality internet connectivity and facilitating their enquiry through a series of faculty and process interventions through the year.

The institute is strong on economics owing to vision of its founder and its bold experimentation, for instance in getting its own faculty in large numbers to become faculty. The institute also offers a range of consultancy and training programmes and also support services for companies, the learning from which are passed on to the class rooms, a case of hands on learning.The institute has in place a number of collaborations with international universities and an institution run by management gurus and brings a large number of well known names to India exposing its students in the process to global developments in management. The curriculum is constantly updated. The focus is also in the intellectual capital augmentation through publishing of a large number of in-house and commercial journals and magazines touching upon a range of management, marketing, finance, brand building, customer relations, and economy subjects. The learning from these intellectual capital building exercises naturally is passed on to its students. IIPM’s network of seven branches helps bring its brand closer to students in different parts of the country which brings synergy to its endeavours.

This runt's got grunt!

Believe it or

not, but a pig, (very unsuitably named ‘Cupcake’) which was just a pound and a half when a week old, has grown to be a 300 pound adult… three times than what it should have been at three years of age. And it’s no good news for the owner, who is all set to get rid of this behemoth after she had to get her septic tank repaired, which sadly happened to be right under the stomping ground of the boar! Who says bigger is always better?

INDIAN IN ASIA? INDONESIA...

THE GANDHIAN PHILOSOPHY IS BEING TAUGHT TO TINY-TOTS...

Based on the Gand

hian principles of Non-violence and Truth, the Bali Canti Sena Foundation is imparting education to Indonesian children in the ‘Taman Kanak-Kanak’ (kindergarten) experiment. Since its inception in 1970, the initiative has successfully operated towards uplifting children in the Indonesian island of Bali. The initiative was incepted in a Gandhian Ashram named ‘Canti Dasa’. Starting with imparting interactive education with free lunches and health care programmes, this initiative at the time of its inception faced several hiccups due to the perceived religiosity in it.

IIPM-News:- The rise of the Indian farmer!

Corporate bigwigs draw massive investment plans in Agro retail
With Reliance Industries announcing plans to invest Rs.40 billion in West Bengal on June 21 to set up an agro-retail chain and other corporate bigwigs like ITC, Bharti and Godrej drawing huge plans in the agri-food segment, the Rs.3.6 trillion Indian food & beverage industry is clearly on a roll and is expected to get a major boost. There are two business models emerging in this sector. One, which is focused on institutional sales and the other is about investing in food retailing. For instance, Bharti has forayed into food retailing and has tied up with Tesco. In the same league, Mahindra Shubhlabh Services Ltd. (MSSL), the agri-business arm of Mahindra & Mahindra has tied up with South Africa’s ‘Capespan’ for exports of branded fruits (with the MSSL brand name) to the South African market.

Vital Role in Companies Like...

Since then, he has played a vital role in companies like AirTouch, Infospace, Accel-KKR Telecom, The Charles Schwab Corporation and Cisco, apart from his dubious Vodafone drill. Arun Sarin’s hold over boardroom politics will be considered nothing short of legendary. History would rarely see a CEO who could have smooth-talked his way into not being thrown out in the face of unbelievable losses; a relationship management model now taught in top B-schools. While management style & boardroom politics will be topmost on shareholders’ agenda for change of leadership, the fact is that investors need to raise more important issues like the need for change in strategy.

Lance Armstrong Finally choose...

It was as if the gods were smiling down on their chosen child. The ensuing scenes – of equal parts revelry and disbelief – at the Champs Elysees had to be seen to be believed. The rapturous reception that Lance received was well deserved, and even I was cock-ahoop with elation. Victorious in the most tortuous event known to man only 33 months after cancer surgery, who would say miracles don’t happen in real life?! Bearing testimony to the fortitude of the human spirit, Lance Armstrong finally chose to hang up his cycling boots in 2005 after racking up a stupefying 7 consecutive tour wins (something even the likes of the legendary Miguel Indurain or Eddy Merckx can’t match) at what is more aptly termed the Tour de Lance! From zero to real-life anguished hero, it’s been an eventful and unforgettable journey for Lance. Having ridden roughshod over all opponents (cancer included), Lance remains the most enduring paragon of hope and shining beacon of inspiration to those who clutch to the word ‘impossible’ in their dictionary…

...Out of History

So, the New World isn’t so new after all...!
Current day America is a cornucopia of plentiful bounteousness and a haven for anyone aspiring to reach for the heavens. Far and away, the most progressive country in the world, America too, however, has its dark underbelly. Post the cataclysm of 9/11 – to take a critical point of reference – its image has been sullied by the pugnacious predilections of a cantankerous Texan at the helm of affairs, and even American taxpayers are raising a furrowed brow over the temperamental transgressions of their armed forces. It can then be safe to assume that Americans have always played a prominent part in the composition of world history, as we know it to be. What if I were to proclaim perchance that I could actually rewrite American history itself?

Breezes off the

A passage into the changing construals of Utopia’s ultimate illusionists…
We begin this section with a compellingly introspective look at the way the world should or would have been, had the fragments of history fallen its way. These worlds harbour a vision that might just yet be realised. So, do read on and prepare...

I stand here in the courtyard of Cephalus, in ancient Greece, transported in time to Plato’s Republic of 390 BC, witnessing Socrates’ discourse on that cardinal virtue so much in scarcity today, justice. He theorises justice to represent “working at that, which is naturally best suited,” and “to do one’s own business and not to be a busybody,” and presents the ideal concept of society, where the ruler creates fair norms, the warrior executes these laws, and the producer accepts them sans discord. Socrates exiles poetry, music and dramatics, for these pervert the land and proliferate corruption, that vice among vices.

The Real ‘Contagion’

What happened in Brazil in the late nineties is something the Brazilians can’t be held fully responsible for. The contagion was so severe that policy makers were forced to react in a way that left the country in the midst of a crisis. A series of events, ranging from the Mexican peso devaluation, the Asian financial crisis and the Russian debt default, made the emerging economies, a risky asset class in the portfolio of investors. Very soon, capital migrated out of Brazil and the government had to increase interest rates; an obligation which the country could never honour; and Brazil did a sovereign default.

The Detroit Time Bomb! (IIPM-Press Release)

The now famously infamous Detroit Quicksand claimed its first victim in the form of Delphi Corporation, the largest US auto parts supplier, which depends on GM for 50% of its sales filed for bankruptcy on October 8, 2005. Delphi’s non-US subsidiaries are not part of the bankruptcy filing. Delphi listed $17.1 billion in assets and $22.2 billion in debts in the court filings. Its restructuring plans will be funded by $4.5 billion in debt facilities. Delphi’s woes are directly linked to its GM legacy. It was spun off from its parent company GM in 1999, but has been unable to shirk off the inheritance of costly health and pension plans.

Bernd Pischetsrieder gets a new lifeline

IIPM-News Release

Volkswagen CEO Bernd Pischetsrieder’s tenure has been given a fresh lease of life with an extension. The unanimous decision of the board furthers Pischetsrieder’s tenure to 2012. This decision came as a surprise, as his cost cutting measures had received severe criticism in Germany. Pischetsrieder is the mastermind behind a massive restructuring programme at Volkswagen’s six German plants in Wolfsburg, Hanover, Cassel, Braunschweig, Emden and Salzgitter, which could wave go o d- bye to roughly 20,000 jobs by 2009. But it is believed that the $408 million fourth quarter net profits gave an impetus to this decision.

Questioning ourselves over whether this storm has actually blown off the dirt created by the PSUs in the customers’ minds. Sadly, the research proves that the picture was indeed a little clearer, if not as murky as it was. RP Mohapatra of Delhi proclaims that the insurance companies are ‘day-light dacoits’. His anger, however, is very justified, for indeed he has reasons to crib.

MAS is forecasted... (IIPM-News)

On the current course, MAS is forecasted to hit the critical cash balance threshold of 5% of revenue (around $140 million) by April 2006 and touch a negative of $610 million by July 2007! Perhaps MAS should learn the art of mastering operational and financial excellence from Southwest Airlines in the US, which rewrote benchmarks of how to operate economy flights. Unless MAS undertakes radical process and structure re-engineering, flying to heavens could become true literally.

BANVILLE'S ELOQUENT

ARTICLE-IIPM KNOWLEDGE CENTRE

Ishiguro was the much-touted favourite for the prize, and Banville’s eloquent – at times – heavy, prose has tended to impose on the plot, drama, protagonist and other elements of the tale. And the anticipated soap opera-esque slanging matches among members of the illustrious panel of judges haven’t failed to disappoint.

The Booker, however, upheld its tradition of being controversy’s favorite child – this time around, oddly, more for those who failed to make it to the final contention list of six – including compelling new novels from four former Booker winners (Adelaide-based J.M. Coetzee, Ishiguro, Ian McEwan and Salman Rushdie) and other previous nominees.

China's Huge and Growing Income Inequalities

Considering China’s huge and growing income inequalities, and its massive disguised rural unemployment, it is easy to imagine a period of political instability that sends investors heading for the exits. Mix in China’s shaky financial system and the prospect of trade sanctions after an altercation over, say, Taiwan, and it is clear that the yuan might not always be a one-way bet. Last but not least, the Chinese authorities desperately need to maintain the country’s breakneck economic growth in order to preserve the Communist Party’s legitimacy. But, as the economy becomes richer and more complex, there will be no escaping the market imperative in internal credit allocation. Every other emerging market, even in Asia, has eventually had to cross this bridge. Indeed, the need to pursue financial liberalization to maintain growth is a central reason why middle-income countries are so prone to financial crises. That’s why Chinese authorities should move to greater flexibility now, and not wait until it is too late. So should we expect to see much bigger currency moves in China anytime soon? Should we ever expect to see wild gyrations in China’s exchange rate of the sort one routinely sees in, say, the Australian dollar or the South African rand? ...

Binary Digits (IIPM-Press Centre Article)

Both information and data are measured in terms of binary digits or bits. A single bit can be either on or off , true or false, positive or negative (You see how convenient this is for electrical and magnetic computing devices). A single bit can represent the state of Schrödinger’s famous cat – the bit is 1, if the cat is alive or 0 if dead – or 8 bits can represent the letter S as 01010011.

IMF-MAGIC BULLETS

RELEASE-IIPM PUBLICATION

Introduction of user fees and other cost recuperation trials could not salvage the situation. Projects like TEHIP (study into the causes of health system failure) prove that mere insertion of funds and more drugs can’t be a panacea. The State should focus on scaling up the general productivity of the health system. This warrants for a substantial investment in training and skill development of the public health workers. IMF’s magic bullets will not work here.

Piracy calls the shots for Microsoft

Microsoft, the world’s largest computer software company,has announced plans to introduce
a Windows starterversion (only in India) priced at just Rs.1,000. The new Windows version will be available in English and is also being translated in Hindi, Tamil, Gujarati and Malayalam. The move is being prompted by increasing software piracy that makes soft-ware available at rock-bottom prices.Microsoft plans to counter this issue with this low-cost offering, which is being mooted as an attractive price strategy against pirated software. It’s worth noting that almost 73% of software sold in India is pirated.

WESTERN SOCIETIES

IIPM BUSINESS AND ECONOMY
The real problem is not too much multiculturalism but too little. If the diversity now ghettoized on the margins of Western societies – geographically and psychologically – were truly allowed to migrate to the centers, it might infuse public life in the West with a powerful new humanism. If we had deeply multiethnic societies, rather than shallow multicultural ones, it would be much more difficult for politicians to sign deportation orders sending Algerian asylum seekers to torture, or to wage wars in which only the invaders’ dead are counted.

HAWAIIAN CULTURE

RESEARCH AND PUBLICATION, IIPM

The Queen Liliuokalani Outrigger Canoe Race was initiated in 1972 as a training run for the longest canoe races, and coinciding with the then reigning monarch’s birthday, it came to be christened after her. Much before Copernicus attempted to enlighten the Europeans – who were worrying if their ships would tip over after a certain point – of the rotundity of the Earth, the Polynesians were cruising the Pacific in their voyaging canoes! Employed for fishing, and transportation, the outrigger canoes have carved their treasured niche in the Hawaiian culture.

No Moses to move them out

Israel must give up control of sea and air space, apart from landAfter years of pushing forward, the Israelis have finally taken one small step back. This has come in the shape of Israeli settlers being evicted from Gaza by none other than Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, the man who had been an ardent advocate of settlement. Withdrawing the settlers is part of a plan agreed upon by United States, United Nations, Russia, European Union, and of course the Palestinians and Israelis.

EXPTREME TERROR

IIPM-PRESS CENTRE PUBLICATION

It has become an article of faith that Britain was vulnerable to terror because of its politically correct antiracism. Yet Osman’s comments suggest that what propelled at least some of the bombers was rage at what they saw as extreme racism. And what else can we call the belief – so prevalent we barely notice it – that American and European lives are worth more than the lives of Arabs and Muslims, so much more that their deaths in Iraq are not even counted?

"CHINESE GOOGLE"

PUBLICATION AND RESEARCH, IIPM
The ‘Chinese Google’ even has the original search technology behemoth, Google, holding a 2.6% stake. Despite these gung-ho parameters, things are not so rosy. Last year the Chinese government came down heavily on cybercafés, fearing an unhealthy effect on the Chinese culture. The moot point being that the regulatory patterns and business climate are typically highly controlled. Even though official estimates on internet penetration claim that China is second only to USA, the fact is that China commands only 7.9% of web penetration, compared to 67% in USA. The problem gets compounded with credit cards the standard route through which web transactions are done. China has an abysmally low credit card penetration of just 3%; and almost unheard of internet gateways supporting secure transactions.
