Aravali Institute of Management (AIM) was started in a pioneering way by holding its 01^st International Management Convention in the year 2000. This Launch Convention heralded the beginning of a unique tradition at our Institute with the decision to have such Convention on a contemporary topic as a regular feature. Five such Conventions organized so far have been highly successful with upto 600 participants and top notch speakers from all over India and abroad.

 

In continuing the above tradition, our 6^th International Management Convention on the theme of “Building World-Class Organisations” is being held during 06-08 March 2009 at                    Taj Hari Mahal, Jodhpur. This Convention is being dedicated to the memory of late Dr. I. G. Patel (formerly Governor of Reserve Bank of India, Director of IIM Ahmedabad and Director of London School of Economics, UK), who was a member of our Board of Governors and a great supporter since inception. His wife Dr. (Mrs.) Alaknanda Patel has graciously agreed to be present in the Convention.

 

The Convention would have inaugural session, ten plenary sessions and valedictory session with various sub-themes such as Best Practices, Business Environment, Core Values,         Corporate Governance, Corporate Social Responsibility, Creativity & Innovation, Digital World, Global Economic Meltdown, Human Capital and Role of Family.
