Manpreet Gujral takes JEC to global level by joining Duke Fuqua School Of Business ranked amongst top 10 business schools in the world.
Manpreet, Information Technology 2006 alumni, has put JEC and Jabalpur on the world map and it is a matter of pride that she is the first from the city to join Duke Fuqua School Of Business for pursuit of higher education in management.
Duke university prides itself to be a top tier institute in the world. Famous alumni of Duke include U.S President Richard Nixon, Chilean President Ricardo Lagos, philanthropist Melinda Gates, The CEO’s of – General Motors Rick Wagoner, Morgan Stanley John J Mack and the list goes on. It would be no mean achievement if Manpreet Gujral expands this list in the coming years.
Manpreet a versatile all rounder and a gold medalist to boot, was selected in the campus by Tata Consultancy Services which she joined for a short period. But a burning desire to be creative, independent and futuristic charted a different career path for her. She wanted to be a successful entrepreneur like her father, also an alumnus of JEC 1976 batch, Er M S Gujral. His success as an entrepreneur was a great inspiration, prodding her away from a corporate career in the technology industry, to join her family’s business. This passion has driven Manpreet to many successes in a dynamic, customer oriented, business over the past few years. Currently managing her chain of 4 hotels across India (including Hotel Rishi Regency Jabalpur), Manpreet Gujral plans to expand her family hotel chain globally.
Her stint at Duke is another feather in her cap and would be a stepping stone towards her goal of globalization along with her social commitments. Her determination to create a clean and “green” hospitality hub would serve as a platform for the blue print of the future.
She is grateful to her peers Dr. SBL Veohar, Dr. Manish Choubey, Prof Prashant Jain for their unbinding encouragement and belief in her vision. It was at JEC that her ambitions took shape and she is committed to extend her support to her fellow JECians to overcome academic and career challenges.
