            Starting from a vague idea which metamorphosised into a focused team 
            effort to assemble new ideas and come up with results, The B’Cognizance 
            team has strived to establish a platform through which students 
            can address issues related to IT and Management. The inspiration for 
            such an activity lies in the zeal to create a magazine that cements 
            together disjoint efforts of various people into a coherent mass movement 
            giving rise to evolution. We here at IIIT visualize the magazine to 
            meet the requirements of all the Management and Information Technology 
            students of India and Abroad. 
 
 Our inaugural effort starts with 
            an article on “Globalization and its challenges before India”, followed 
            by an article on “Employee turn-over in the Indian Industry”, written 
            by our Mr. R.N. Ugra, ex-Senior Vice-President (marketing), Jindal 
            Iron & Steel Co. Ltd.”. The issue further leads us to Not-Profit 
            Organization, Banking on HR and about SAP Net Weaver with many more 
            on way. A separate section Volte Face invites viewpoints from readers 
            about “Foreign Nationals on the Planning Panel” followed by CaseCading, 
            which unfolds into an unstructured problem asking to be solved. On 
            the whole we have a great diverse mix of things to read and ponder 
            on. In due course of time we intend to invite more of the eminent 
            people from the Corporate World to share their views and experiences 
            with us.

            B’Cognizance is not about a small group of students who care to exercise 
            their own views and opinions in black and white. Rather, it is a playground 
            of ideas, for all of us present here, all of us with capacities to 
            think and reflect. B’Cognizance is “our voice, our medium, our unifying 
            principle”. Let's drive it the way it deserves to be driven.

            After all, who else should be leading the way in 
            saving the earth's precious resources?”
