Bharatiya VidyaBhavan’s S P Jain Institute of Management and Research (SPJIMR) has launched a new podcast series called ‘ThoughtCast’ which will feature an expert SPJIMR faculty in conversation with a senior industry leader on management and business. This podcast is a means to reach audience who would like to hear challenging new ideas, management wisdom, and practice-oriented leadership lessons.
The first episode of the series, launched today, has SPJIMR Executive-In-Residence, noted author and corporate advisor, R Gopalakrishnan in conversation with Nestle India Limited’s Chairman and Managing Director, Suresh Narayanan.

So through conversations between our own faculty thought leaders and CEOs who have made a difference, our Thoughtcasts will do just that." Taking forward the SPJIMR motto of thought leadership, the series will showcase the 'influencing practice' principle of the institute. Other industry head honchos to feature in the coming episodes are Mr Amit Jain, MD Loreal and MrSanjeev Mehta, Chairman and MD, HUL.
