2) Research Proposal on “HITACHI’S INABILITY TO BECOME MARKET LEADER IN AC INDUSTRY” – This is one of the research projects that i have presented during my curriculum. The research is unsolicited and external at exploratory level. PROBLEM STATEMENT- Despite the best technologies & effective range of models in AC’s segment, Hitachi has not been able to effectively capitalize its brand image to become the market leader. The research objective was to find out justified reason for the present market scenario which portrays that Hitachi is not the market leader in the Air Condition market and to draw the comparative analysis of Hitachi with respect to market leader in Air Conditioners industry. BENEFITS TO COMPANY-This proposal will make the company (Hitachi) more aware about the psychology of Indian consumers which can help them to focus on their efforts towards attaining a significant share of the Indian AC industry. Improving in some basic strategies can result in giving an initial thrust to the company which can also help in surviving and facing competitors. Sample size was 4000.

3) Research Presentation on “HUNDAI MOTORS”—

This Report was presented during my curriculum under the guidance of Dr. Debashish Chaudhary, head of Industry Interaction Cell, AIBS NOIDA. During the research I try to find out the reason of being Hyundai behind leading brands like Maruti and Tata and to draw comparative analysis of Hyundai car with respect to the leading brands in car industry. My Null Hypothesis was --Promotional Strategies need to be improved --Pricing Strategies need to be improved During the project i analyse the key factors like valid technology, price, appearance and found that Price matters much than Technology and lastly Brand. I give my attention on salary brand, advertisement brand, market visibility brand, after sales service brand, satisfaction brand and suggest brand. Today’s market is highly price sensitive; mostly Hyundai products are for high class society. Comparatively ineffective promotional strategies and unpopular market visibility of company are also the reasons for failure.

4) Hypothetical Analysis Project on a Company with New Product [Marketing] Company Name- AMICOM Product- INTERNET BOOSTERS This project was given to our group by Mr. Roopak, Faculty Marketing, AIBS NOIDA. Project was based on a hypothetical company with a hypothetical product (launched not yet). We did market research and gather data from known sources (primary, secondary) and decide that Internet Boosters can be different and very effective product rather traditional Routers.

FINDINGSOrder To Cash Cycle determines how quickly an order from customers is translated into cash in bank, it determines customer experience and perception of the service provider, Order To Cash Management have ability to fulfil orders in time as this has a direct bearing on revenue or cash flows and hence the bottom line of company.

MANAGEMENT & ACADEMIC LEARNINGS Time management is most important learning during my academic curriculum. Here i became able to learn about Planning and Goal Setting. Pre-planning for any activity is very important. Goal is my final objective as a management student and trainee. To achieve my target, I always do my best efforts. I believe in the thesis that; success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it. I think communication is the ever-most updated and advanced tool/technique to elaborate my personality, eagerness and to firsthand with anyone. So i always concentrate on the ways of communication either in dealing a group of people or within a group discussion. Comparative analysis is a tool to judge myself. It is a source of self motivation for me. Time is ultimately the most valuable resource and totally perishable. I indulge essential habits and make daily planner to get maximum output of work without wasting my time. I always analyse INPUT-OUTPUT mechanism to find out the efficiency of my work. I schedule my priorities rather to prioritize my schedule. To achieve my objective with available resources, i set plan. Planning is very important because Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail. I look and analyse the data very carefully to get every possible and useful information from it. I discuss my problems with others to get their views regarding problems, then I analyse their views very carefully. After this procedure I take my decisions and it always help me in solving problems.

WHAT NEXT EXPECTATIONS The proposed course will open new doors for me to get high profile jobs in national and international organizations.

 The extensive knowledge of the subject will help me in understanding the issues of modern world.  The successful completion of the course will facilitate me to apply for more advance course in the field.  The proposed course will enable me to read the subject on modern basis. I want to develop my ability to think critically and independently. I also want to develop my leadership skills. Students enter University with a wide range of different motivations; and often students have a variety of motivations and expectations regarding better future prospects. Students come to university in order to obtain a qualification, which will get them a job. The experience of university per se is secondary to the rewards that the award of a degree will (hopefully!) bring to students after graduation. Here the emphasis is more on the intrinsic rewards that result from developing an understanding of specific subject matter. At university level, every student tries to get {social, physical, mental, moral, emotional and intellectual} development. So that they can make their future shining like a star. University is most expected place for students’ personal. In university, ever student want to become intelligent, hard working, talented, honest and exciting so that they can get success very easily. I feel that greatest reward for doing is the opportunity to do more.

OBJECTIVESFinally, i would like to say that i have knowledge of management to analyse the things in cross environment. I have many skills that i gain from my research experience and which enables me to find job as market analyst. I always get support and faith of my parents and friends to think beyond the line and lastly i have enough courage and confidence to live in cross culture. MBA is the need of today without it my education is incomplete. It enhances my knowledge, liberalizes my thoughts, broadens my outlook helps me in being the care taker of business. It eradicates pessimism and fatalism by sowing the seed of hope and prosperity. Business school improve my quantitative approach, presentation and communication skills. Students of MBA programs study the theory and application of business and management principles. This type of study equips students with knowledge that can be applied to a variety of real world business situations. The main reason is to increase my salary potential and to improve my career. A MBA degree is almost a necessity in today’s

business world. In most cases, an MBA degree is required for executive and senior management positions. There are some companies who will not even consider applicants unless they have an MBA degree. A person having MBA degree can get many different type of employment opportunities. I am very hopeful that my University will fulfil my expectation regarding, flexibility in learning and real time industry interaction which help us to elaborate us in diverse culture. I hope that my college will prepare the students for real life corporate world even before they step out of the campus. In the campus they will be encouraged to imbibe and enrich our professional as well as personal life. Lastly I want to say that, NEVER DOUBT………………………. THAT A SMALL GROUP OF THOUGHTFUL CITIGENS CANNOT CHANGE THE WORLD
