AIMIT is organizing 'INSIGNIA –2014', the national level fest in February 'Insignia-2014'. Like in previous years, Insignia-2014 seeks to investigate current market significant changes and challenges that affect our lives. It represents a confluence point for management students as corporate honchos and academicians adjudicate over events dealing with leading burning issues. Instead of focusing on the usual compartmentalized silos of Marketing, Finance and HR that other business schools do, the college is probing on Integrated Business Management (IBM) approach to understand the world of tomorrow which helps to inspire and instill in the participants vigour, valour and the experience required to face the corporate world with the speed to match with.
Accordingly, the Insignia-2014 theme is: “Systems Thinking Approach” – A Supreme method of designful thinking. Systems’ thinking is not one thing but a set of habits or practices within a framework that is based on the belief that the component parts of a system can best be understood in the context of relationships with each other and with other systems, rather than in isolation. In the systems approach, concentration is on the analysis and design of the whole, as distinct from total focus on the components or the parts.
The approach insists upon looking at a problem in its entirety, taking into account all the facets, all the intertwined parameters. It seeks to understand how they interact with one another and how they can be brought into proper relationship for the optimum solution of the problem. The Systems approach relates technology to the need, the social to the technological aspects.
Systems Thinking Approach describes how organisational systems perform, and ways to improve them by three main approaches such as: Functional Systems Approach, Structural Systems Approach and Interpretive Systems Approach. Insignia 2014 explores all these System Thinking Approaches in nine breakthrough industries such as: Best CEO, Blue Oceanic Quest, Energy Industry, Transport Industry, Finance Industry, Rural Village, FMCG & Biotech Industry, Entertainment & Gaming Industry and Fashion Industry. Insignia 2014 -Systems Thinking Approach, rounds test not what contestants do not know as much as what they do know, and know in depth and breadth.
At the heart of systems thinking is the principle of interconnectedness. There is no inherent end to the system. The boundaries of a system are arbitrary, defined by the observer. It is finding connection in patterns.
St Aloysius Institute of Management and Information Technology differentiate itself by inculcating courses such as Creativity and Innovation Management, Business Ethics, Business Turnaround Management and Systems Thinking. The students believe in thinking innovatively different from the rest. This helps the management in events to think differently and apply the knowledge in the rounds that they conduct. Applications are being issued for the admission to MBA, MCA , MSc(software Technology) and M Sc(Bioinformatics).
