Sri Venkateswara University Vice-Chancellor W. Rajendra has explained the student community the importance of identifying one’s core competence and staying self-motivated in order to trace the path of success.
Addressing budding managers from various colleges of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu at ‘Arthakshetra 2015’, the fifth national level management meet organised by KKC MBA College in Puttur on Tuesday, he painted a bleak picture of the job market which would offer no respite to those who refuse to hear their ‘inner voice’. Narrating anecdotes and short fables, Prof. Rajendra established a ‘connect’ with the students, when he indicated the importance of staying cool and free from stress in the age of ‘hire and fire’. Looking beyond soft skills and academic excellence, he called discipline and perseverance as the key traits helping the students to come up with flying colours.
P. Ramachandra Reddy, Head (academic affairs) of Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT Chittoor), saw an immense scope for interaction between institutions and industries, with the emergence of premier national institutes like IIT, IIIT and IISER alongside Sri City industrial city. KKC chairman K. Kuppaiah Chetty, principal Naveen Kilari, director I. Lokanandha Reddy and dean K. Sudhakar Reddy addressed the students.
