Udaipur (Rajasthan) [India], June 29: The Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur, hosted the inaugural ceremony of the 2023-25 batch of its flagship Two-Year MBA program, the biggest with 360 students. Prof. Ashok Banerjee, Director IIM Udaipur, presided over the event. Alpesh Shah, Managing Director & Senior Partner, BCG, Mumbai, India, was the Chief Guest. Shah is a distinguished industry veteran and has held different leadership roles in his enriched career. He is a firm believer in a people-first approach and shared his experiential journey with students. Alpesh Shah said, "In the rapidly changing modern and volatile world, arming yourself with appropriate knowledge and skill set is the best thing you can do. The ten learnings of my life are: Life is a marathon, and we must keep pushing yourself. Don't be in a hurry. Professional sports personalities like Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Jocovich, Sachin Tendulkar, Serena Williams, Leander Paes and Mithali Raj enjoyed the peak of their career for an extended period of time because they were committed to performing consistently. Run your own race, don't be influenced by anyone or anything. Work hard; there is no substitute for hard work. Focus on your strengths, not on your weaknesses. Accept the change as it is the only constant. Whatever you do, do it wholeheartedly with commitment. Invest in your friends; they will stay with you forever. There are no shortcuts in life; live the values. Don't complain, and make the best of what you have. Define your purpose in life and a bold one which will lead you to new horizons of success in life. I would conclude with a message that to be bold, aspire for great things and make the most of your two years at IIM Udaipur." The welcome address was delivered by Prof. Ashok Banerjee, Director of IIM Udaipur, where he congratulated all the students and welcomed them to a transformational journey at the premier management institute. Prof. Banerjee said, "You have been dreaming about this for a long time. Your hard work and efforts have made you attain a seat in one of the most prestigious management institutes in the country. You are the future of the country, and we have huge expectations from you. I firmly believe in the fact that every batch has to be better than the previous batch, and you all are.
