That was the first time probably when I came to know that something unique was happening in the MBA segment in this country. Back then I was also working at Amazon.com as a Customer Service Associate in the Alexa department for the USA process. And there was this one thing which I could closely relate to what Mrs. Srinivasan had mentioned in the video &#8211; \u201c<em>customization of services<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is something that comes from nothing but <em>Empathy<\/em>. I was taught this during my training at Amazon too. In further research, I found out that companies like Netflix, Amazon, and Apple religiously implement Design Thinking in their businesses to build products and services. I was mind-blown!<\/p>\n<p>Cut to now! I have completed one whole year at SOIL and my journey has been nothing short of enriching, packed with challenges, progress, and countless moments of discovery. MBA at SOIL is about learning Economics and marketing, reading Financial Statements, Emotional Intelligence, practising gratitude, and having fun while learning.<\/p>\n<p>Every time a professor at SOIL, a friend or a recruiter has asked me why I chose SOIL, I have always answered &#8211; <strong> <em>\u201cIf I\u2019m not getting into the premiere B-schools in India, I should get somewhere where I get a premiere Curriculum!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In my one year of SOIL, I have met amazing people &#8211; like the founders of BluSmart Cabs and Studybuzz.<\/p>\n<p>I got featured twice on YouTube. Once on Studybuzz and the other time on SOIL\u2019s page itself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"blog-img\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.soil.edu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/soil-school-of-business-design-1.jpg\" alt=\"Soil School of Business Design\" class=\"\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"business-design-new business-design-new1 business-design-new2\">\n<div class=\"vedio-sec\" id=\"choosing-specializations\">\n<div class=\"lft video-new1\">\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LlyW_gqjN2g?si=bbtSgWwg4S-5OPjn\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ryt video-new1\">\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ceL83NSUDpI?si=yEnQrAA2v1Jv7vKY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>As a placement Coordinator, I have been a crucial part of some of the most important events at SOIL<\/p>\n<div class=\"business-design-new business-design-new1 business-design-new2\">\n<div class=\"vedio-sec\">\n<div class=\"lft video-new1 video-news\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.soil.edu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/soil-in-business-1.jpg\" alt=\"Soil in Business\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ryt video-new1 video-news\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.soil.edu.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/soil-map.jpg\" alt=\"Soil Map\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The best part of Year One was our batch trip to Sidhbari or our rural immersion program.

You will ask what is even the use of Sociology, Psychology, and Anthropology in the Corporate.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I would like to say that this was the prime factor in having me apply for a seat at SOIL!<\/p>\n<p>Economics, Finance, and Marketing &#8211; these teach you how businesses work but liberal arts make you a critical thinker, adding a sparkle of curiosity to your business mindset. Anthropology teaches you how we are what we are, Sociology teaches you why we think what we think and Psychology teaches why we do what we do. These subjects have helped me to navigate even more deeply into the minds of the stakeholders whenever I would do a case study!<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, I like being an SOIL student and in the future, it could be your reason too. <strong><em>Experiential Fridays!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I feel so proud to say that at SOIL, I get to paint, dance, sing, and do public speaking and storytelling in the same classrooms where I give presentations, and solve business cases and complex equations.<\/p>\n<p>Where else would I get so much exposure, so much to explore &#8211; inside and outside? I\u2019m left with only a few months now before I graduate and become an official Alumni of this institute. Hence, all of us are garnering as many memories as we can and live the campus life to the fullest.<\/p>\n<p>A special mention to Ms Neerja Raheja, a brilliant mentor for all the students preparing for placements, Chandan and Naveen sir for shedding their IIT and IIM experiences and learnings and ensuring maximum learning, and last but not least our own Fin-Woman, Mrs. Manpreet ma\u2019am for making us fall in love with numbers and excel sheets!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In September of 2022, I came across a video of Mrs Manjula Srinivasan on YouTube featuring a Design Thinking Case Study.
