Chennai : Loyola Institute of Business Administration (LIBA), one of India’s leading premier B-School today inaugurated CHRYSALIS 2019, an annual flagship event of LIBA.  The two day management event was inaugurated by Chief Guest Shri V Balakrishnan, IPS, Joint Commissioner of Police and Guest of Honor Shri Amardeep Devadason, Senior Vice President, Operations, Global Outsourcing, RRD along with Fr. P Christie SJ, Director, LIBA in the presence of faculty members, participants and students of LIBA. The Inter B School management fest – CHRYSALIS 2019 based on the theme, “An Era of Disruption” provides a platform for the participants to explore and implement disruptive business strategies.

Addressing the students, Shri V Balakrishnan, IPS, Joint Commissioner of Police said “Disruption, an ideal topic for this era has been happening from the beginning of time.  It has covered all spheres be it literature, science, philosophy etc. Technology is draining disrupting minds to come out with new innovations. Innovations are limited with time and space whereas disruptions happen at larger scale in time, space and other dimensions. The society moves forward with product, process, and personality oriented disruption. Disruption is going to be the seed of development for the future and I urge you to be a disruptor with good ethics.”

Addressing the gathering, Mr Amardeep Devadason, Senior Vice President, RRD added saying “Disruption is real, changing and continuous; one must adapt and embrace disruption. To be successful, one must manage the present, selectively forget the past, and imagine the future. My advice to the students is to challenge the status quo, bring value to yourself and the work place, find yourself a good mentor and lastly keep learning while challenging yourself.”

CHRYSALIS will serve as a platform for the participants to showcase their flair for managerial and extra-curricular activities through events such as Fitzest, Markthon, Best Manager, Blitzkrieg, Debaniaque, Exquitzite, Crime Scene Investigation, FIFA and other trending events. This year the management event saw South Indian bank, RRD, Canara Bank, Mathew Garments, Chetti Vilas, DCC Promoters, Cavins and Radio Mirchi partnering with LIBA’s CHRYSALIS 2019.
