Indian Institute of Management Amritsar is set to host the sixth edition of Sankshetra: The Annual Operations and Strategy Conclave. Sankshetra’22 is scheduled to be held offline on the 10th of December from 10 AM onwards. The Conclave aims to provide the student fraternity at IIM Amritsar with a holistic view of how a cohesive and competitive market responds dynamically to varying conditions.

The first panel in the Operations domain will discuss the theme of “Transparency or end-to-end visibility in Supply Chain”. The focal points of discussion would be the multitudes of supply chain disruptions over the past few years and the discord between the chunks of data and current technology, which calls for adapting a robust and adaptable supply chain strategy. It would include the transition of firms to transparency in providing quality security, achieving ESG goals, and impact on customer loyalty.

The Keynote speaker for the first panel is Mr Saravanakumar Rajasekaran, Head of Supply Chain Management & Purchase, Dassault Reliance Aerospace Limited. The eminent speaker panel consists of Mr Malay Mahanti, Sr. Vice President of Commercial and Supply Chain, Indo Count Industries Limited; Mr Ankur Chaturvedi, Associate Vice President-Business Excellence & Quality, Emami; Ms Dollyy Takkhi, Chief Operating Officer, OwnYourStream.com, Mr Ramkesh Jangra, Head of Supply chain, Ericsson; Mr Himanshu Maloo, VP Supply chain, Udaan.

The second-panel discussion theme corresponding to the Strategy domain is “Strategy in the age of volatility: Courage to adapt swiftly”. The conventional route requires a revamp in the age of technological advancements coupled with complexities and uncertainties. To address the volatilities and increasing demands, an amalgamation of traditional approaches with strategic courage would be the appropriate course of action for business decisions.

The Keynote Speaker for the second panel is Mr Vijay Chakravarty, Executive Vice President & Chief Strategy Officer of ReboundTAG. The eminent speaker panel consists of Mr Prateek Shrivastava, Chief Strategy Officer, careers360.com; Ms Sheetal Ranganathan, Chief Strategy Officer, Roche; Mr Anirban Roy, SVP – Chief Strategy and M&A Officer, Tech Mahindra BPSMs; Sonali Dhopte, Chief Strategy Officer, Excelize, Mr Jiveshdeep Singh Sandhu, Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer, Absolute Training Solutions.

With the world recovering from the after-effects of the pandemic and a global recession looming, businesses need to address the volatilities and ambiguity, which would bring resilient companies to the forefront. And to this end, the panel discussion at IIM Amritsar would help prepare future leaders for the uncertainties in a dynamic business scenario.
