TO make their management students stand apart and get the best soft skills, communication and corporate training in the industry, Indira Group of Institutes joined hands with Ecole Solitaire, India’s first residential finishing school, ten years back. This long association has seen thousands of management graduates of Indira discover their true potential under the guidance of internationally acclaimed corporate trainer and India’s leading motivational speaker, Minocher Patel.

To celebrate their long association, and to give out certificates to the students who have benefited from the workshops, the Indira Group organised a ceremony recently. To felicitate the students, group director Chetan Wakalkar, director, IIDEA professor Manju Phadke, director- ISCD professor V Nulkar, and executive director PGP programmes professor P K Divakaran were present on the occasion. The chief guest for the event was director, human resources of a global MNC, Apurv Choubey, and founder and director of Ecole Solitaire, Minocher Patel. Addressing the students, group director Chetan Wakalkar said, “Indira is a pioneer in this field. There are many students with good academic scores but who loose out on big opportunities as they are not totally confident and get nervous when addressing a group of people. This is where soft skill and corporate training matters.”

Minocher Patel adds, “The ten years of association with Indira has been really fruitful. I have seen many students grow into successful corporate professionals. And, when they call you, years after they had attended the workshop just to say how the classes has changed their life for the better, you feel satisfied.” The workshops had definitely benefited the students tremendously as many came forward to speak about the positive change the classes had brought into their lives, and how the program had lead to their holistic development.
