Message of H. E. KOUMBA Désiré, Ambassador, Republic of Gabon in India – Orientation Programme PGDM 2018-20

H. E. KOUMBA Désiré is the Ambassador and Plenipotentiary of the Gabonese Republic to the Republic of India, from 4th, April 2008 till date.

He was very happy to be a part of the Orientation programme for PGDM 2018-20 batch at Asian Business School, and greeted the PGDM students with “Namaste”, to which the students rose in applause! Management, he said was the need of the hour for all professionals from every field, as it is an individual or a group of individuals that accept responsibilities to run an organisation. Planning, Organizing, Directing and Controlling all the essential activities of the organizations are taught in Management. Science and Technology are radically changing our economy and our society. A firm grasp of new technologies for augmenting traditional business disciplines is what today’s decision makers need. Today business programs emphasize emerging technologies and their combination with core management skills for problem solving. The ability to logically solve problems is one that all business leaders need in today’s dynamic business world.

He said Management brings together Men, Money, Machines, Materials, Methods and Markets. He blessed the students and told them to remain motivated and work for achieving the objectives of the organization.

He invited all students to Gabon for experiencing the way things are handled there. He wished the PGDM students luck and advised them to learn the ropes well so that they can prove to be assets to the organizations they become a part of after graduating from Asian Business School.
