Well, today was the day when finalists for 'Making Change Happen' presented their proposals to the ATK Consultants that were jury for the day.
While each of us identified with certain solutions, we also found some areas that we could have done better on.
Overall, a good learning by knowing what other teams have done.
Found one common theme across all teams - and yes, the teams were made to wait outside the hall before presenting so that they don't know what others have already said and can present and also face the QnA with their own ideas - yet, all of them had the same phrase - "Train the Trainer" approach.
May be it was too obvious to have as a plan, may be these teams did think on similar lines, and hence came out as winners in their respective sections - either ways, I have heard this term so many times today that its still ringing in my head.
During the wrap-up, ATK presented their solution to the case and while the consultant presenting this made it clear that this is just an abstract and not the entire solution, I did feel it was too generic and did not reveal any real details on how they addressed some of the technical issues evident in the case.
Of course, they did get the job and so we have to assume that the original proposal was strong enough to get the job done.
And now, as the 'Making Change Happen' week ends, begins term 3 - our seating charts, work-groups and new group allocation for room bookings are already active and its about time we jumped into the next phase of our MBA :-)
