Mr. Chalapathi, started off the session by asking the students the following question: "If you are looking for a job during the current recession time, what you have to do ?" and the answer he has given was "You need to think differently". He further continued saying that the need of the hour is to be "Master of Buseinss Creation (MBC)" rather than "Master of Buseinss Administration (MBA)" and What extra i can do ? (" Extra MILE "). He said that now-a-days or days-to-come, " Compensation is/will be based on ROLE & not based on EXPERIENCE ".

He suggested few interview tips for students: one among them is show your differentiation at interview panel. Talk about what you can do for a company, with your existed knowledge. Emphasis on practicality rather than just theoretical and adviced them to go through the business newspapers everyday. He supported case study method approach. He questioned why can’t you MBA’s think on this direction. He has gone through about Karvey operations how they are recruiting the people.

He said the need of the hour is to "Learn full & right" and "unlearn, learn quicly & implement".
He mentioned one of the best examples HDFC bank on how they become leaders in cost reduction and value maximization in terms of benefits, bank and employees. One of the interesting points on this is accountability of each employee, towards his job activity. The service what they give to the customers, in terms of time duration and process is highly valued. If it is in fast clearance, using less resources, and delivering maximum service to the customer is ultimate end means. For example an employee issuing DD or Check within time, with less usage of paper, then count an employee in average time how many papers he used, how much time he has taken to issue DD.if time is less, usage paper is less, clearance is fast, they would get some rated points. that points what he secured will be converted in to benefit or incentive, generally it is in terms of monetary. with this simple concept HDFC become one of the cost control effective best procedure bank in industry.
End of the day students asked so many questions, he would get reply all of them, with patiently and humbly.

Parents Meeting - 27th Dec 2008
Cygmax Institute of Management Studies have conducted Parent's Meeting on 27th Dec 2008. There was a very good interaction between the parents, principal and faculty members. All the parents were very eager to know how their child was studiyng, attendance and marks.
Visit to Navajivani Orphanage - Christmas Eve
As part of Social Activity and student’s involvement and to create the feeling of Social Responsibility, the students of Cygmax Institute of Management Studies, Hyderabad visited the “Navjeevan” Orphanage Home at Padma Rao Nagar, Hyderabad. This visit was planned by the Management Students under the supervision of Mr. Satish Kumar Dwivedi (HRM Faculty) and accompanied by other CIMS, Hyderabad staff members, Mr. Rajesh and Mr. Krishna. This orphanage home is the shelter provided for the street and abandoned girl Children. These children do not have their parents and guardians and as a result of this they are saved by this home from being exploited and being physically abused. The age group of the children here is from 2 years to 14 years. These children are being maintained and are provided with the parental care by staff members of “Navjeevan” and their friends.
“Navjeevan” is doing a great job for the society as they are not only providing them food and shelter but also educating them. These children go to School as normal children and maintaining the same standard of living as other students in the school to avoid any kind of inferiority Complex in the tender minds of the children. The management of the day to day living / studies / games / food habits of the students here is appreciable as they maintain good standards in their routine activities and performance in the school. There are some children who are very keen and interested in the studies.
CIMS Students have learnt a lot from this association with “Navjeevan” and probably the CIMS (Cygmax Institute of Management Studies) might not have been able to teach this aspect of charity to its Management Students through class room training. The students were given a lot of ambience to analyze the society in which we all are living and to feel that how responsible we are to the people of this society. This experience has made a great impact in the minds of the students and also staff members of the CIMS Hyderabad. It gave the feeling of the responsibility as a father as a mother and as member of this Society.

Christmas Get-together - 24th Dec 2008 - The Joy of Giving
CIMS Hyderabad hosted a party on the eve of Christmas. The office was decorated with a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, brightly coloured stars, reindeers etc. The atmosphere was cheerful and vibrant with carols resounding in the air.
Director sir was especially invited for the occasion, who came aptly dressed in red and white.
The menu on the table was a delight to see – SCRUMPTIOUS is the actual word – varieties of delicious cakes, doughnuts, sweet puffs, arselu, murkku, mixture, toffees etc. along with a hot cup of tea. Even the tissues on the colourful laid out table were special tissues wishing everybody a very MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Christmas conveys the message of Love, Peace and Giving. It was a good feeling to know that our Cygmaxians were out distributing joy, cheer and goodwill to the underpriviledged. That is in essence the real meaning of Christmas.
