This is the presentation done at AIM alumni meet 2006. I haven’t put enough words in it as I wanted to make it a participatory one. It last for almost 45 mins.
Slide 1
there was a mix opinion among the audience. I let you decide, What is your opinion?
Slide 2
This is a little stupid question, just put it to explain the need. You can also raise your opinion, Is branding required for AIM?
Slide 3
Here I have explained that their is always a positive side for everything. The biggest advantage for lesser known is the flexibility to adopt changes, to experiment, to innovate. This can help us take over the leading brands.
Slide 4
This is not the first time when we are thinking about it. Every batch did it but unfortunately it was not passed down the generation. We always worked as a batch but never as a organization. This was the biggest loophole of our existing system. I could recollect many who really did great work for AIM/NIMC branding. It is a right time to network the nodes through a proper network to cash the available knowledge to exercise the cumulative efforts.
Slide 5
To network and to provide the right platform for all AIM branding I introduced AIMAA. Also I mentioned that it is just one step towards the goal.
Slide 6
Then I let them fill the blanks, which everyone could easily. Also I explained that AIMAA desires to work at a strategic layer by providing right platforms over working at a tactical layer.
Slide 7
Then the vision
Slide 8
and then the missions
Slide 9
Some long term plans
Slide 10
The progress so far
Slide 11
Some shorter plans
Slide 12
The challenge for everyone and a call for leaders. “Fail and try but never fail to try” and “expect only .01% success rate” were few lines which always kept me motivated, which I shared with the crowd.
Slide 13
The smallest thing we all can do is to thank the two gentlemen who took the first step for us.
Slide 14
The policy that helped our company took better decisions, after every decision we keep asking ourselves, “will it take us to Nasdaq?”. I asked the student counsel to use the same policy to make better decisions.
Slide 15
Hoping that it helped the overall cause. On behalf of all AIMAA members I request your participation for your own sake. Enjoy.
Dear Aji Sir,
The Lijo+Aji combination is looking to be a lethal one and this presentation is just a trailer…I know much more is in store.
Frankly, it was you who installed in me the josh to work for the alumni. So as usual you have not disappointed me by the presentation and also by the report.
But it was unfair to single out our names when you , rana and some more aimaa core members are also the culprits of junoon called AIMAA.
Regards
Anil

Excellent work. Thanks to all the people behind the work. Very good effort.I was not aware of the forum. But a great presentation. We may need to drill down on the idea for actionable items.I would like to be a part of the team so that I can contribute ( may be very insignificant) towards this initiative.
