I want to know what is he doing after launch of Health Card by Narendra modi....💁♂️💁♂️💁♂️💁♂️💁♂️💁♂️
One thing to note is that when someone asks a question, they need to keep it short and concise. Saying things like, "so my question is" or "so I want to ask you that" just adds redundancy and makes it sound like they're patronizing.
This guy is Gem.. Loved your talk sir..
Correct He is one of the most honest guy I have ever seen on internet....
I mean who says...........I was from the greedy lot.........I have done politics.....

Underrated channel.
Harsh, You are really a humble, down to earth person. I liked your interview. Wish you all success
Very useful tips- develope hiring softskills,. Never hand over a document from the hot printer, reread, reread, reread
His advice on networking is bang on
"If u'll have gun in your head and money in ur line; seekh loge"
This guy is so crazy! Please come to Baruch New York I swear you will sell out!!
Cheese and Wine deciding my career. Good luck with that kind of career.
@6:39 is the answer to the question we all came looking for. Like this so more people can see :)
InsideIIM, you guys have been doing a great job. These videos are not just useful for aspiring business school aspirants or students, but any other professional. Great job!

wonderful interaction
Wow, I really liked the last bit of this video. Resonates so much. Harsh is there a way one can get better at hiring? I have always faced that. Ability to hustle and link with the founders problems? A doer?
Really good one!!
people are so oriented towards how to get a job and fit their personality around it. Instead of human being creating machines.
Can someone please suggest me good books/biographies on ETHICAL decision making in financial management and AUDACITY in taking action on financial matters?!
Where are these workshops/ session conducted ? How can one attend them ?
His advice on networking is definitely going to convert a lot of the people in the audience into massive douches.
Thats how the world goes around
I agree. I believe its genuine connection that goes a long way. People in high positions are smart enough to read through pretense.
7:48 Why does he think that sucking up to your boss is a good advice? '... Guess what it matters to the boss'
Trust me...If you have 2 working hands, 2 working legs, one super brain....you don't need to give a fuck on any one....You are the boss for your life...
Just keep doing your duty....Destiny knows Destination..just follow the path..
I strongly disagree with his advice, As Tony Robbins says "..Success Without Fulfillment Is the Ultimate Failure..", you may pretend to match what your Boss likes, but in the end, you will regret!! There is a nice quote from Tony Robbins "Success Without Fulfillment Is the Ultimate Failure"!! There is a very good book on why one should live by their values, "The Values Factor: The Secret to Creating an Inspired and Fulfilling Life" by Dr. John F. Demartini (Author)!!
@@shravankumar5145 ye baat sahi hai lekin tab jab tum business kar rahe ho ya independtentlly kuch kar rahe ho...naukri mein bossy behaviour dikhane se lath hi milega ...
@@sauvikroy9868 it is convenient and profitable for sure in short term, I am not saying be rude to your boss but be independent thinker and do things that aligns with your highest values if you want long term success and fulfillment, read book by Ray Dalio - Principles, you will probably get more context, All the Best!!
I think if you want a average life that advice will work but for an extraordinary life or life well lived you have to understand your deep values and desires and act accordingly.
Amazing video, please bring Operation management professional who did MBA from IIMs

Amazing video. But I'd like to bring up just a small problem that is with the feedback of your mics. When listening to the Audi through the headphones it's clearly audible and also is a nuisance. Would suggest you guys to take care of the sound problem, the content as always is mind-blowing 😊😊
Thanks, Michael for the feedback we'll try to improve on it.
Sahi hai..,
Can u suggest a good finishing school in India or abroad. I agree that it might give u an extra edge over your peers but there's not enough information available on it. Great job insideiim
Whatever you say boss..!
Looks matter a lot in office. If you are average looking.. then you hardly get due importance.
More than looks it's they way you dress and the way you speak(accent) .

Thank you Sir
Most welcome, We hope you liked the video

Thanks a ton!
hacking into the medical records is a greater risk when it is dematerialised because the records can be altered as per ones own malicious purpose and intent so that they can show anything they want to anyone. For example; a criminal, who unfortunately knows how to hack can alter the records and bring major diversions in maybe a case he is booked into. any mental related records can be altered. therefore measures should be taken to regulate such digitisation of medical records and high level of security.
Good content

How can an IITian guide his way through Investment banking. Is MBA a must given that I have done some online courses on financial modelling ?
Hi Sudhanshu, You can ask your queries here - bit.ly/2Iqq9FO
Experts and b-school students will be able to guide you well! Good luck!
I have cringed at all times the interviewer opened his mouth.
Me too bro
Can you explain why?
2 hi baar khola. Thank God.
He says "that's a fact" a lot
Frankly saying, no corporate job is worth giving your life to. Nobody cares about them.. things are changed now, either be an influencer and build a community around your skills/profession, or be a perfectionist, don't be a *EMPLOYEE* Seriously not worth it, atleast in 2020, where persuading audience is what matters.
In short, be like a personality everybody knows about, like some youtuber, gamer, influencer.
Chalo, ye bhi theek he 😂
But informational video 👏
sir, I want to know there are n numbers of investing baking certification are available in the market. Are they helpful?
This is the best video so far on insideiim platform.
Md Aftab no!
Md Aftab CFA or MBA finance from top business schools or both.
@@anirudhyasorcar5360 What about financial modelling? I'm thinking to do it from IMS pro school.

Some advice is good but some advice doesn't make sense if you don't care about wine it doesn't matter if your boss is a Sommelier, continuously pretending to be something you’re not is not being true to yourself and will keep you feeling empty!! Live is short to pretend, Know yourself and live a life congruent to your values and purpose!!
shravan kumar to reach the top you need to sacrifice. He isn’t asking you to pretend. He is asking you to have knowledge/ personality outside your line of work; so that, when there is a networking event (party) you have something to share. No one remembers the guy who just talks about his to-do list. Be the guy who others want to call to spend their free time with.
@@anirudhyasorcar5360 I would not agree to sacrificing your values because your boss likes something, I would rather change boss rather than sacrificing values, but as with values different people have different value system some give value to integrity some give value to rising higher compromising values, but anyways whatever aligns with you. This seems like short term strategy to gain something but in long term it may not give you fulfilled and purposeful life.
@@shravankumar5145 Again, you seem to be stuck on the "wine" part. He just wants to say that you gotta have a life other than work (passions, likings, hobbies, etc.) that you can talk about. It could also be "that heavenly Lassi" that you might have had, or "the enchanting view from your happy place?" idk.
Ye bhi theek hai

Are you into CA?
the problem today is folk are too expectant. guess what. Grads at IB join as Senior Analyst and earn peanuts, add the hours you have to put in, it's close to minimum wage. you will only hit D level if your face fits. so expect to be a VP lifer.
sucking up to boss 101 starts at 7:48
Bring people from Ops too please

Cam an Engineer be hired for an IB role...in big investment bank
Yes
Go to 6:16 for the networking part.
I am a Blockchain developer. So, security in data can be achieved, if database architecture is Blockchain-based.
And this is the future. Moreover, he should take a look at latest techs. He seems naive being in Start-up.
Abhijit Roy but the question here is would you take guarantee for your client’s data not being hacked? At present, I do not know if that would a wise action.
@@SH-qj7vg Yesss!
Abhijit Roy I do not think that would solely lie in your hands. There’d have to be facts to be considered. Would be too perilous of a call to make.
@@SH-qj7vg get a view of Blockchain tech, if you haven't.
"Decentralization is the Future"....
Abhijit Roy too many legal hurdles; esp in countries like India and China. Plus with the issues raised around privacy by the US and EU; decentralisation of data will be hard.
Anchor was a jerk
I have no idea what the fuck hes saying
The anchor is very arrogant... I can't even stand besides that guy...
