path of success out of failure.

Prof (Dr) Biswajeet Pattanaya, Founder and Director of ASBM, presented the annual

report of the institute. While sharing his valuable words with the graduating students, he

Ken Blanchard he said that “The key to successful leadership today is influence, not

authority”. He advised the students to have strong belief in their inner potential and to

stay happy and influence the world around them to make it a happy place.

“Getting a job is nearly impossible but the process of creating new ventures, especially

in MSME is gaining momentum. We have to take risk in entrepreneurship. Governments

are also taking concrete steps to develop entrepreneurship”. Chief Guest Mr. Prem

Tiwari shared his views and said that an entrepreneur should be a leader and that he

needs imagination and courage to take risk. Entrepreneurship consists of three things,
