“Both people & processes can make a system run efficiently”- Chancellor, LPU
Sharing the illustrious achievements made by Lovely Professional University in the last 14 years, LPU Chancellor Mr. Ashok Mittal urged all at LPU to continue working hard towards advancement to rach even greater heights. Addressing the 3000+ staff he said, “Undoubtedly, LPU has amazed everyone by making continuos strides in different endeavours, be it research, publications, students’ placements, entrepreneurship, or sports. The journey of LPU has been so remarkable that it has acquired the stature of the largest university of India. I am proud to share that Presidents of four countries have visited LPU as Chief Guests on different occasions, in addition to 71 other top national and international personalities, to motivate and bless LPU students. Although LPU has achieved a lot, yet this is just a “Pit-Stop” on our journey of growth.”
Continuing he said, “We have to strive together and plan advancement in our own individual areas, as we have to see LPU get included among the top 200 universities of the world by the year 2025. I consider that a system cannot be fixed by one person. Both, its people and processes, can make a system run efficiently.” The mammoth ‘Conference’ communicated the mission of the university for the forthcoming years. Sharing the dais, Pro Chancellor Mrs Rashmi Mittal appreciated the great team work done by staff members and credited achievements to all the staff members. She asked staff members: “Be more vocal by coming forward to improve upon the deficiencies, if any. Nothing can be improved upon automatically so staff members will have to show their complete involvement in all processes for efficiency and betterment of LPU. All other senior officials, heads, faculty and staff members also assured unanimously to take the university further to sky soaring heights.
On this occasion, Chancellor Mr Mittal also launched an online portal http://lpu.innovationdex.co for staff-members to post their issues and to suggest solutions too, if possible. The occasion was the conclusive day of 14th annual management conference of LPU ‘Share the Vision-2015’. The conference was primarily comprised of two major categories – ‘Share the Vision’ and its sequel part ‘Sanidhya’, which recognized the services of staff members in the form of ‘Association Award’ for their long association with the university. This year, 388 LPU staff-members were honoured with 10 & 5 years’ “Association Awards”: 46 staff members were honoured for 10 years’ long association and 342 for 5 years.
