Re: High Tech Product Management Training

Hey Alok,

I don't think we should allow the training institutes or for that matter any outside body to start using the student database to promote their campaign. This is strictly my opinion.

What you can do is mail it to 2008 and 2009 batch but not on iimb mail but on yahoo or google group. We as PM conclave organizers or SAC committee members do not want to encourage these but if people are interested they can attend.

Again, just my opinion.

Regards
Kavash

These guys wanted the list of all of the people who attended the program on the day of the event, which I refused on account of data privacy.

I am distinctly uncomfortable on the idea of even propagating to the students. The lacunae of a good course in high tech product management should not be the reason for these training institute to fill the void.

Yes , I am strongly against this idea of allowing institutes to use this list. A very strong no can go out to them.
