Leadership style and philosophy
As VC, I always believe in transformational leadership, which is always found to be positive for Institutions. I still think that faculties job satisfaction and commitment to their work is directly related to the leadership style employed by their director and management.
As leaders in an educational institution, I always believe in holistic development, which enables students, teachers, parents, and community to genuinely feel that they are an essential and integral part of an institutions culture. To accomplish this goal, administrators must have an understanding of transformational, transactional, instructional, and inspirational leadership styles and how they can function together to create an integrated leadership model.
Strategies opted to promote the institute
Online Digital Marketing is one of the best way to promote an Institute. Online digital promotion gives us the opportunity to build our brand, online presence, unlimited customers for long time. For any Institute, best marketing way is that from where we can generate leads. Other ways to spread awareness about the same –
- Promote website through SEO
- Promote website in Social media/ messaging channels – Facebook, Whatsapp, Twitter, LinkedIn and more.
Before starting online promotion, it is the best way to analyze competitor Institute and marketing strategies they are performing. Another approach that works is to make students reviews videos and testimonials about institute facilities like about trainers, lab facilities, placement facilities, etc and make them online video channels like YouTube.

Roles and Responsibilities as the VC
I consider it my duty to work for the betterment of the institute and society in every way possible. I am not that person who needs to be reminded/ told to do tasks or work at the given point of time. I feel it is my responsibility to bring in an eco-system of research orientation and to make the Institute one of the finest in the World for research.
Secondly, to ensure that the sizeable portion of fund requirements come from Alumni and own corpus funds. This will restrict interference and bring independence to the way the Institute is being managed to promote research.
Last but not the least, to ensure that the research is not just academic, but is useful to industry, through a proper, appropriate, and effective industry-academy relationship to be fostered on a sustainable basis.
Focus on the employability of the students, with appropriate skill development, including soft skills and more.
USP of Mangalmay Institute
The distinctiveness of Mangalmay Institute of Management and Technology consists primarily in creating for its faculty and students an ambiance that provides a ‘holding environment’ - a psychological space that is both safe and uncomfortable. ‘Safe’ because a ‘holding environment’ is what we all need to grow and blossom a supportive environment. ‘Uncomfortable’ because in such a situation, one also promotes ‘disruptive creativity.’
Such an environment is the natural result of the following strengths of the Institute:
- It is adherence to its foundational concepts that have laid out the trajectory of its growth plan.

Taken together, these strengths have contributed in ample measure towards the creation of a culture in the Institute that is uniquely our own, that energizes us in all that we do, and knits us together into one educative community.
