Mr. Rajesh
Pednekar, who has rich industry experience in Supply Chain and Distribution, gave
a guest lecture to the students of SJMSoM about the opportunities and avenues
of entrepreneurship in an emerging market like India.
The
session was presented in two parts. First part was about the basic introduction
for the students on how to make the most out of an MBA course. It focused on
the general guidelines and the best practices.
The
speaker described the four E’s of life as follows:
- · Education,
- · Employment,
- · Engagement and
- · Entrepreneurship
Mr.
Padnekar urged the students to attend all classes and gain knowledge. “Education
is something that opens up your mind and sets you free”, he said.
“If
you do what you love, you will not have to work single day”, he said. He
suggested us to connect with our seniors, mentors and alums using social media.
“Work for learning, earning will come later. If required work for free. Be in
‘Gemba’ i.e Japanese term for Workplace. Go out meet real people and engage yourself
in solving real problems.”
Engagement
is a very important aspect of life. If one is not happy at ones’ home, then one
can’t give ones’ best at work. He spoke about 5 M’s of Marriage – Mind, Money,
Manners, Meals, Maturity.
Entrepreneurship
is continuous pursuit of opportunity without regards to resources currently
controlled. He urge the students to make materialism irrelevant; enhance
knowledge through continuous education; manage relationship expectations; practice
emotional self-awareness; commit to physical ideal; make networks; adhere to
code of ethics and focus on time efficiency.
The
second part of his guest lecture was targeting the logistics and the supply
chain management in Indian e-commerce.
The session started with the Jobs business
model. JOB – Just Over Broke. An employee is only paid that much that he can
come to office the next day. He described the pros and cons in the JOBs Business
Model as follows:
Limited Upside
- · No capital invested
- · Work as a cog in other system
Unlimited Downside
- · Universal Constraint – Job is selling time for money(Max 24 hours are available )
- · No price freedom
- · Usage increase is always lesser than actual
- · Can sell to only one customer
- · All innovations/inventions belong to the company.
Mr. Padnekar also discussed about the current
state of Indian Logistics – challenges and Opportunities. Quoting one of the
challenges in Indian logistics, Mr. Padnekar described the lack of efficient
cold chains to transfer pharmaceutical products which require strict
temperature controlled environment.
He said that the prospects for budding
entrepreneurs are looking positive considering the huge budget allocated for
entrepreneurship in the recent financial budget. The session ended with discussing
some important Taxation tips.
It was a knowledge enriching session
wherein the students of SJMSoM got more insights on how an entrepreneur can
save more money as compared to an employee in taxation. The session
included valuable inputs on the ground realities of best practices for MBA and
Entrepreneurship. This session enabled us to learn something which we do not
learn in books.
