PLANNED ACTIVITIES 2020 We as an organization and Chapter invited active participation, views, and comments on the topics of mutual interest. Prof Garg and Mr OP Aggarwal shared their views on IIMAA-J research-cum-action engagements.

To get started on this idea, the following  proposals as a pilot project are being put forward:

• Selection of 15-20 Primary and Upper Primary Schools in Jaipur
• Focus on Leadership and Management
• Organise school-based case-studies (with appropriate NGO/ Govt organization) focusing on issues of leadership and management
• Plan and implement management development programs for selected schools

Over time we may consider different issues-problems, methodologies, instruments to take up for assessment, analysis, actions. The meeting ended with the following comments,

• To test and demonstrate the relevance and usefulness of this idea may be explored by a smaller group of people interested and willing to dedicate time voluntarily around selected public issue or problem.
• We would like to invite an expression of interest from members to discuss this further for developing a proposal with the scope of work, methodology, and partnership.
