"Management is, above all, a practice where art, science, and craft meet" - Henry Mintzberg

IIM Jammu launched its first-ever Management Conclave "Nakshatra" (a constellation map) which hosted corporate trailblazers across different management domains. The Conclave was an effort to give students a holistic understanding of various management domains. The event dissected the most pressing issues of the corporate world through the lens of various functions ranging from Marketing to Finance to Operations to Human Resources. This would act as a guiding star, casting an illuminating light on students’ future, and help them in charting their career paths. IIM Jammu strives to develop leaders and entrepreneurs who can perform globally, making a valuable difference in the society and the first-ever management conclave 2021 endeavoured to contribute towards the same.

The event was kickstarted with an inauguration ceremony on 30th January 2021 and spanned over two weekends. The Conclave comprised of 8 panels - 2 panels each from the four above-mentioned domains. The renowned panellists shared their insights on various contemporary issues, building a deeper sense of understanding in students. Their words of wisdom and vast industry experience helped to give students a head-start in their careers.
