To have a successful career, the first major step is to have clarity in the goals that are set, said Harimohan Pavuru.

Then comes efficient planning, implementation and proper co-ordination to achieve it, he said while delivering the BL Club Lecture series at the Department of Business Administration, Malla Reddy College of Engineering.

Generally, career should happen by design. In India, due to the prevailing circumstance, it happens by default. Either way, there are a set of things that need to be looked into.

Speaking on “Applying 4 Ps for MBA’, in the lecture sponsored by the State Bank of Hyderabad, Harimohan said management graduates should place great importance to product, price, place and promotion as they handle challenging tasks, responsibilities and issues in their career.

He stated that the product stands as our life, price is key to success, place acts as venue for our commitments to be successful, and promotion acts as achievement for our designed career.

The process of goal setting, planning, implementation, coordination and monitoring are key in the successful building up of a career somasekhar.m@thehindu.co.in
