On 29th March, 2023 the students of 4th Semester, MBA got the opportunity to attend a guest lecture by Dr. Gopal Babu of Value Education Cell (AKGEC) on the topic “Sambandho Mein Bhaav Ka Mahatav”. The session started with a simple breathing exercise which helped the students to feel more relaxed.
The light was thrown on the importance of connection i.e having a connection with others that is based on feelings and not on the basis of our thoughts. Communication is the vital key to forming connections with those around us. Observation and Conclusion are the key points in understanding the person we are trying to communicate with. In order to show how these two work, we were shown a short role play where the students enacted out roles, and the rest of the students had to figure out and tell whether the characters were communication on the basis of observation or conclusion.
Often, we form opinions/conclusions about others that are irrational on the basis of our past experiences. It is necessary for us to view the situation in the perspective of the present time. Thus, our feelings and how we act upon them are to be taken into consideration as they define our relations with others in the long run.
It was an insightful and a marvelous session, the students enjoyed it thoroughly and we look forward to have many more informative sessions. It was an honour to have Dr. Gopal Babu with us and we are grateful to him for enlightening us with his knowledge.
