Addressing the convocation, Dr. Meena Chintamaneni, Pro Vice-Chancellor, said,<\/strong> “It is indeed a proud moment for NMIMS and the students present here. I want to acknowledge your journey. In the past decade, we have witnessed the six schools grow, each leaving an indelible mark in its domain in Mumbai and India. NMIMS’ standards align with its reputation.” She emphasized the students’ role as brand ambassadors and urged them to carry forward the legacy of values, beliefs, and vision of NMIMS. “As you enter the professional world, remember that these are challenging times. We are living in a VUCA world, and in such times, new leadership is emerging. Your response to these situations should be quick and agile. Strategy and execution go hand in hand,” <\/em>she added.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/spandan.nmims.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0O8A9998-scaled.jpg\")
