Dear Readers
,
It is a pleasure to share the February issue of Magis, which features the

Conference on Social Entrepreneurship
. This year’s conference included enterpris-
ing social entrepreneurs who showcased their innovative, eco-friendly solutions with a
view to shaping a sustainable future. This issue also features the
Alumni Homecoming
wherein eight distinguished alumni were felicitated for their outstanding contribution.
Encouraging Whole-Person Growth
At XLRI we strive towards
integral formation
whereby students are encouraged
to nurture their intellectual, emotional, spiritual and social persona to evolve as well-
rounded human beings furthering greater common good. Student societies are set up to
foster whole-person growth.
Ensemble
, the annual management meet, and other events
like
Ideakon
,
Disha
,
Legalise 6.0
and
Kshitij
are the outcome of stupendous efforts put
in by student societies beyond their curriculum framework.
Promoting Solidarity
The students in XLRI are always encouraged to
network and socialise
with a view to
help build their social quotient. This issue of Magis features quite a few
regional dinners
hosted by students wherein the whole campus joins in to celebrate regional festivals.
Fostering Thought Leadership
XLRI hosts numerous conferences, seminars and orations on a regular basis to foster
thought leadership among internal and external stakeholders. The
25th JRD Tata Ora-
tion on Business Ethics
featured in this issue is an annual event that invites prominent
thought leaders for an oration on Business Ethics. This issue also features other signifi-
cant annual conferences organised to foster and advance thought leadership like:
HR-IR
Conference

Shaping Responsible Leaders
We hope that the articles covered in this issue give you a glimpse of our modest yet
consistent efforts to help shape responsible business leaders of tomorrow.
