Mandi 2009 Slogan

Soachao.. Baechao..

Baechao.. Seekhao...

Seekhao... Soachao....

The above slogan is the pedagogical mantra of mandi. The following is the meaning for the slogan.

Soachao.. Baechao: This means that students while engaging in selling need to think and sell. This is the true learning for any Business school curriculum. With out thinking selling does not becomes learning..

Baechao.. Soachao: This is the second part of the slogan. It means that unless u sell your learning is incomplete. It is the selling which is the true measure of your learning. Further , learning by selling is the ultimate. It is much better than some X , Y, Z case study brought from so great B School.

Baechao .. means more than sheer selling... It is not taking money from some body else by rendering some service / product. It is enabling the world to behave a way you want to. It includes motivating, educating, inspiring and finally making people commit to what you say . It includes selling of ideas / faiths / beliefs to other people..

Soachao.. Seekahoo.. : this is the third part of the slogan.. Here the learners constantly engaged in learning and thinking.. it is unending process. Once sold.. million times one can think and learn on the same and trillion meaning and messages one may get.

The process is continuous and happens in iterations every time and all the time.

all the best for the learners..
