Who’s the Lucky Guy?

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

Is LG truly finding lasting bliss in the ‘blue ocean’ or is there danger lurking right behind it? B&E’s neha saraiya refuses to bury the critic’s hatchet in this rollicking analysis... And she ain’t no swimmer!

Who says we cannot laugh through tough times? Gabor George Burt, renowned expert on Blue Ocean Strategy and Value Innovation, seems to agree, and presents a collection of interesting anecdotes on the recession. Imagine a 99 pence store in Southern England driving a pound store out of business within weeks of its launch! Burt also lists a sidesplitting spin on the aviation industry. American Airlines supposedly is planning to charge a fees from all customers “not currently flying, scheduled to fly, or even thinking about flying aboard the commercial carrier!” The ‘lucky ones’ will be chosen randomly from the telephone directory, and the charges would include a $25 tax on customers flying other airlines and a $30 surcharge on customers staying at home during the holidays (!!!!)!

Where’s Burt taking us? Through these spoofs, Burt wants to stress upon the point that companies who diligently follow the blue ocean strategy can ride the recession successfully and be the subject of admiration, rather than jest. But what in heavens is the Blue Ocean strategy?

“We will continue our efforts to elevate the Starbucks Experience and stay true to our core value,”

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

Consumers are only too happy to switch from Starbucks’ premium coffee to McDonalds’ cheaper alternative, especially at a time when liquidity has become dearer to them, similar to the drift of shoppers from Target to Walmart stores. “We will continue our efforts to elevate the Starbucks Experience and stay true to our core value,” asserts Wendy Pang, Spokesperson for Starbucks when asked about Starbucks’ future strategy. Clearly, the company for now is ‘not’ considering any price reductions to counteract the reduction in customer base... It clearly should think along logical lines, and price changes to revive demand is what comes to the mind of the informed! What say, coffee lover?

Reading the future of books and movies...

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

Bestselling blockbusters


With over 1,000 films churned out of our country alone, it’s no surprise that books are often made into movies, and when it’s one like Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s Devdas – just one film is so not enough to do the book justice! After Shahrukh Khan’s much-lauded performance as Devdas just 6-7 years ago, the new talented kid on the block, Abhay Deol, is now out to paint the character in a more modern but equally inebriated hues in Dev D. While Vidhu Vinod Chopra had masterfully recreated another of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s book – Parineeta – he is now betting his money on the story Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat. Titled 3 Idiots, the film has Aamir Khan in the lead role. Another of Bhagat’s book – One Night @ the Call Center – was made into the very forgettable film Hello. Vishal Bharadwaj brought Shakespeare’s stories to the common people in India through his films Maqbool and Omkara. And the film which has finally got our countrymen seriously into the race for the Oscars – Slumdog Millionaire – is also based on a book – Q & A by Vikas Swarup.

The story is quite the same in the west too. From romances like Gone with the Wind, Pride and Prejudice, My Fair Lady, to mafia dramas like Godfather to science fiction films like War of the Worlds, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, to fantasy films like The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter – countless classic films have been made out of equally rivetting books.

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

INDIA INC:
Back in the 1990s, virtually every analyst worth her salt had written off India Inc. Used to protectionism for decades, Indian companies were bludgeoned and battered when global competition came to the country. But alongside rose the animal spirits of entrepreneurship that has led to the astounding recovery of India Inc. by the early 21st century. Mostly without government support, a new breed of entrepreneurs have sensed opportunities in new sectors and grabbed them brilliantly with both hands. Many western scholars now acknowledge that India holds the advantage compared to China because of two reasons. Most successful Indian companies are private. More importantly, they have used capital far more productively and efficiently than Chinese counterparts. In these turbulent times, firms that have acquired a nasty habit of depending on crony capitalism will suffer – just as powerful business families suffered badly in the 1990s. But the smarter ones will emerge bigger, stronger and more profitable. Also remember, most Indian companies are sitting on billions of dollars of reserves!

Supreme Court has asked that if this country is actually secular, then why is there no ‘common civil court’?

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

B&E: Any single economic policy you would like to introduce in India? NM: In Gujarat, the development work is moving in the right direction. I want a ‘balanced growth’ here. Balanced means 30% growth in industry, 30% in agriculture and 30% in the service sector. So that, in a situation of famine, the other two sectors can contribute. During recession, the agriculture and service sector can contribute. Secondly, I have also told the Finance Commission and the Planning Commission that the various loans given to the states should not be measured with one yard stick. It should be divided into three parts. Loans given for natural disasters should not have any interest because no one is responsible for these disasters. For development work, interest should be there but more interest should be charged from states who can''t run the state and take loan to pay salaries and fill up their homes.

B&E: Which laws do you think require amendments immediately? NM: You cannot run a nation smoothly by implementing laws of the 19th century in the 21st century. We must update the existing laws. Now tell me, in this era of technology, with Internet and stuff, do you require a radio license? It is irrelevant. But it is there. Supreme Court has asked that if this country is actually secular, then why is there no ‘common civil court’? Someone has to answer that question. A committee of experts should be formed to review all laws. Supreme Court has given its verdict on the ban on cow slaughter. We have implemented this. Why have other states not implemented this? Why is the Central government not doing anything in this regard? At least they should implement what is being led down in the Constitution properly. Each country has introduced tough laws to counter terrorism. Why is our country afraid of introducing tough laws? What is the reason?

Unless Obama works together with Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan, terrorism will continue

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

The way US handled us then was wrong; what now?

The war on terrorism cannot be fought in Afghan villages. Instead, a regional approach was and is needed. It must be concentrated on the sanctuaries of those who train, equip, and motivate the extremists and send them out to hurt us all.

But we were not heard. Regardless of whether that was the result of a lack of knowledge or a lack of will, events have proven us right. Unfortunately, for the past two years, Pakistan has been suffering as much or perhaps more than Afghanistan has suffered. Almost the entire tribal belt along the Pakistan/Afghanistan border is suffering. Just as schools were burned in Afghanistan from 2004 onwards, schools – especially for girls – have been burned even in Pakistan, leaving 80,000 children without facilities. Bridges have been blown up, soldiers and police killed. Bombs have exploded from Karachi to Lahore to Islamabad. The violence has spread to India as well.

If the US attacks us, they know what we’ll do...

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

Obama has little choice but to go after earnest development in the US foreign policy

Manouchehr Mottaki (MM) is the Foreign Minister of Iran, a country that has ensured that it continues to remain in the bad books of the United States; not only because of its suspicion worthy nuclear ambitions, but also partly because of the war of words that Iran’s President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has loosely declared on the West. Despite various talks of attacks on Iran, Bush has not fortunately put his words into action. The question is, will Barack Obama mirror standard establishment think when it comes to a so-called ‘dangerous’ country like Iran? Though initial reports do suggest to the affirmative, in this exclusive interview, Iran’s Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki says the media needs to be patient as Iran waits for Obama’s next move. He also deflates the chances of full-fledged military confrontation between Iran and US saying that America cannot afford to undertake another conflict in the region.

B&E: What is your opinion on the election of Obama as the US President? MM: We take into consideration the statements of Americans but we are awaiting their statements and stances after January 21. We should wait and act with further consideration. Obama himself has asked for more time to reflect upon dialogue with Iran and it should be given to him.

so if it increases one is forced to levy surcharge which will eventually make the ticket costlier.

IPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

R.VERMA, EXEC. VP, KA


B&E: How much has the fuel price rise affected the business?
RV: Fuel is a very important factor and accounts for almost 50% of the operating cost of an airline today, so if it increases one is forced to levy surcharge which will eventually make the ticket costlier. This increases the losses and has affected us too.

B&E: Kingfisher Airlines is famous for its in-flight services, what is flying experience on the international routes going to be like?
RV: From in-seat massager to touch screen controls to having lounge bars, where kingfisher staff would be especially deployed for assistance, the flights operating on the international routes are going to have everything. Mr. Mallya is also planning to arrange for a bar at the back of the plane so that it’s not that just the Business class would be able to avail the facility, but the economy class would also be able to avail the full Kingfisher experience. There would be world-class cuisines and chefs to prepare them. In a nutshell, it would be a flying 5 Star hotel.

B&E: How much does branding help in aviation business and how different is it in this sector as compared to others?
DS: Oh! It helps a lot. Everywhere Kingfisher Airlines is noticed because it has been branded in a very lavish manner. Today, there are very few 5 Star airlines and we are one of them, everyone is aware of this fact and it is because we have branded ourselves in such a manner. Infact, we are planning to provide the Deccan passengers also the same Kingfisher facilities. In its segment, it would have facilities better than any other airline.

Will CEOs smile half as much?

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

People have been overwhelmed by his victory but business leaders are guarded in optimism. Virat Bahri & Pallavi Srivastava of B&E analyse what Barack Obama’s election could mean for business

It is truly undeniable that the tide was heavily against John McCain. As he was busy talking on the economy, health care, banking, real estate, taxation, bail outs, experience, “Why I am not Bush!”, “My years in Vietnam!”, et al, the Americans were busy getting overwhelmed by the phenomenon of Barack Obama, and gaining faith in his promise of change. Obama won primarily because he had mastered the art of inspirational leadership; and harped repeatedly on his slogan, “Yes, we can!” Very little complicated language; just a case of excellent positioning at an excellent time.

That did compel critics and even TV show comedians to comment that Obama had very little in terms of definite plans for American revival. In the heat of what will now be remembered as a historic US Presidential election, American stand up comedian and talk show host Jay Leno quipped, “Barack Obama continues to criticise John McCain’s economic plan. McCain would like to criticise Obama’s plan, but nobody knows what it is yet. So we’re still waiting!”

While media here goes ga ga over what his election means to India; we should realise that his first priority is to rescue his own country from arguably one of its most testing times in history. His foreign policy is undoubtedly crucial, but even by reviving America itself, he would automatically be doing the world, and India, a great favour!

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

“Sales may be flat”

B&E: On the effects of the economic slowdown on Maruti.
RCB: There is a slowdown in the industry and therefore Maruti is affected as well. You cannot have high performance throughout the year as sometimes sales are flat as well.

B&E: Will the new plant in Manesar manufacture all models?
RCB: Apart from the A-Star, the plant is already producing the Swift and the SX4. All models cannot be produced at the plant as one has to rationalise the production and it makes no sense to manufacture one model at two separate plants.

Ford Motors was the world’s largest loss making corporation.

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

If the Americans are insane, then I have to admit that the other global auto firms seem to be leading the pack of insanity in their quest to reinvent the fuel deal. In 2006, Ford Motors was the world’s largest loss making corporation. In 2007, General Motors was the world’s largest loss making corporation. If you think that Toyota – creditably at a powerful position currently – can never attain that glorious stage of losses, do remember, a company like Ford, which had around $100 million profits in the first quarter of 2008, got cannon-balled by a killing loss of $8.6 billion in the second quarter; and all because, as Bill Ford put it last week, “Literally overnight, people stopped buying big SUVs and started demanding fuel-efficient cars...”

All it took Ford to get destroyed was a matter of three months! All it would now take the global auto industry to die would be the same..

Arindam Chaudhuri on WHY ISB IS BETTER THAN THE IIMs

ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY

and How to judge B-Schools

Introduction

First things first... Ever since we started Business & Economy, we avoided the temptation of undertaking B-school rankings for the simple reason that IIPM is a B-School we are very closely associated with; and at IIPM, we have always claimed that we are the best B-school globally. So any B-school ranking brought out by us would have had IIPM right at the top, at least in the three parameters of ‘course contents’, ‘global exposure’ and ‘research & consulting’! But if we were to have finally published such a ranking, our friends in the media would have taken no time to call them biased, however fact-based the rankings might have been. And undertaking a B-school ranking without speaking about ourselves would be next to impossible for an aggressive group like ours, which so passionately believes in our (IIPM’s) superiority. However, after the recent Zee Business B-School Survey that ranked us No.1 on at least one very very apparent criterion – of global exposure – I thought we could at least talk about Indian B-schools, if not rank them.

this article is not an attempt to malign the IIMs


And with the amount I personally am immersed in B-school mechanics and workings, it became but obvious that if our magazine were to do an article on the same, the story in any case would have been ghost written and dictated by me. So I thought I should anchor the story myself.

The second issue that needs clarification is that despite IIPM’s ‘Dare To Think Beyond The IIMs’ campaign, I have nothing against the IIMs; rather, all I have is sheer respect [My father was a professor at IIM Bangalore and is extremely proud of the same. My Managing Partner, my best friend at IIPM and the Editor of this magazine itself, A. Sandeep, is a product of IIPM and IIM Calcutta; and he specifically had gone to study there to have a first hand knowledge about the ‘IIM way’ before coming back to IIPM to take it up.

And finally, my best friend in school and the Head of our news portal TheDailyIndian.com, Partha Saha, is a proud product of IIM Calcutta]. We believe we are the best when it comes to education, but that doesn’t mean we don’t know how good the IIMs are or that their students get better placements than our students or even the fact that they attract the best of students of India – though we may still not accept that the final IIM product is, therefore, necessarily better! So, this article is not an attempt to malign the IIMs, but a simple attempt to analyse some facts.
