Keep The Window Open, for Johari's sake!

My journey for MBA begins... the journey to IIM-Ahmedabad for my MBA (PGPX to some). I'm on the AA flight 292 from Chicago to New Delhi non-stop. I love the fact that I get to see the North Pole every single time I take this flight. It keeps me awake; so I started penning down some of my ideas and thoughts. I have just left my wife and cute-n-dumb dog behind in Chicago, as we start this journey to create a common dream!

Let me think of a name I'll call it. But before that let me clearly lay down on the table what I'm here for. Is it some additional skillset that I want to learn to become a better manager or a leader? Or is it part of the bigger and deeper master plan? I see this as about rediscovering myself. For now, I don't have a ready answer yet of where this will all lead. I have a "blueprint" of few ideas, but let me call it just that. It's the "holy grail" quest that got me here. I intend to chart out my path to create an experience that lasts a lifetime. Yes, I am going back to school!

I want this to be my window of expression. My wife proclaims my "Johari window" is small and well insulated. I want to seize this moment and let fresh air in. In doing so, I will share some of the aroma from the potpouri of my life at IIM-A. I intend to keep this as a diary of my life here and, in the process, hope to share my impressions of what would be an exciting and challenging discovery!

By the way, I thought of a name; this is dedicated to my wifey and pooch. "Keep the window Open, for Johari's sake; IIMA here I come!"
