As part of the Capstone Project, JAGSoM conducted Mr. & Ms. PEP, an initiative designed to help students build confidence, clarity of thought, and effective communication. The platform encouraged students to introduce themselves with conviction, think clearly under pressure, and demonstrate professional presence. Top performers further showcased their composure and articulation on stage before peers and an alumni panel. 

Guidance and feedback from distinguished alumni added depth to the experience, helping students identify their strengths and refine their leadership journey. The initiative reflected JAGSoM’s emphasis on experiential learning and leadership development. 

The winners were Manthan Bhatnagar (Mr. PEP) and Ishika Gupta (Ms. PEP), with strong participation from students of the PGDM Batch 2025–27.
