i Fest 2014 at IILM Institute for Business and Management, Gurgaon

With IILM, taking the winter “LEAP”, the talk of the town “Ifest 2014” (18 – 20th, December 2014) was grand in every sense. The inauguration ceremony was held early in the lotus feet of Goddess Saraswati and lighting the lamp ceremony by the Sr. Director-Prof. Sujata Shahi, Director-Ms. Shivani Tekchanadany, and all the faculty members.

The entire campus was decorated with colorful paper flags, fragrances of flowers, and great olfaction of food. The much appreciated student volunteers cooperated with all warmth and passion to set up the youth theme in the motion. Their engagement and involvement was largely applauded.

The perfect warm-up and the nail-biting team performances by the girls’ basketball team begin the show. I could see all management lessons being applied: Sportsmanship, team management, goal setting, goal achieving, strategies, performance and appraisals were the flavors of the acts.

Over ten activities were successfully organized by the faculty coordinators, students and the participants. As the sun was warming up, the lush green lawns of the campus were getting filled with lovely hues of art all around the campus. The limelight was stolen by Dalal street, AD Mad, RuBaRu and group dance performances. The spontaneity and enthusiasm of the students kept the audiences on the roll. Students from different colleges and universities participated in the full swing. The much popular dance show was a mega hit.

There was a “word of good” for organizers and facilitators. The pictures were flooded on the social media and the forums were flooded with the appreciation. Participants from different colleges also appreciated the hospitality and smiling award recipients had much to say.

The students have also prepared short coverage on some of the events. The passion and involvement is evident from their writings.

I appreciate and thank all the participants for sharing their thoughts. “IFest 2014” (18-20, December, 2014) at IILM was a blockbuster.

Kudos to each and every member of the IILM family!  Cheers! Wishes for welcoming prosperous new year, 2015 with the same energy.
