2) Read “Indian Management” (monthly journal, available in all leading newspaper stalls).
3) Pick up any general knowledge book (of the sort: Limca Book of Records, Hindustan Year Book etc.) & peruse same.
4) Visit libraries (e.g., BCL, USIS, R. K. Mission Goal Park, National Library, State Library etc.,) to study management books/journals.
5) Surf the following sites & gainfully subscribe, to avail of/receive journals of each of these bodies which will update you on current trends in management:
