His big head inspires us to dream big and profitably, his big ears instruct us to listen attentively to new ideas and suggestions, his narrow eyes signify the need to concentrate, and his small mouth reminds us that silence is golden. And these are just some of the lessons that management students will learn this Ganesh Chaturthi.
Students listen in attention, learning key management skills from the elephant God himself. This was seen at a five-day conference organised by the Ahmedabad Management Association, to forge a link between spirituality and management, aiming to inspire students to imbibe lessons on profitability, innovation and commitment.
