A total personality transformational program.
A recent article in ‘The Times of India’ raises a very important question:
Is academic excellence a true measure of one's success in life?
It further goes on to say:
High Marks May Not Guarantee Success!!!!!!!
It is so because………… (please read on)
It is because we need many other qualitiesbesides high academic performance to besuccessful. Qualities like a person’s totalpersonality, communication skills, positiveattitude, time management & generaloutlook towards life in fact play moreimportant role.
However, the teaching process in our schools& colleges focuses on preparing students forscoring high marks.
Hence, most of the students when theyenter corporate world lack vital employability skills.
Views of some Indian

“To get a corporate job with a multinational
company you need to communicate effectively,
write reports & put together presentations.
Tragically, majority of candidates lack fluency & polish. They are poor in grammar, including even those who have
studied in English medium Schools.
They are unable to construct grammatically
correct sentences. They also grapple with pace, tone & pronunciation.”
HR Head of an IT Industry
“Today’s youth have a pathetic command
over the English Language & very
weak delivery system. Hence; their
communication is wasted.
In fact, we reject 90% of those who apply for voice-based positions
due to
poor
communication skills.
In addition to poor
grammar today’s youth have
grave problems with listening,
comprehending, assimilating & responding.
We face problems. Our employees need to express themselves
well.
We don’t provide language training.
We expect them to have strong communication
skills to start with.

Workshop leader;
I am surprised at the number of managers who complain that nobody
who works for them can write
a simple paragraph.
A senior recruiter at Citigroup :
“If I have two similar
candidates in front of me,
every time
I’ll hire the one who can write
better.”
Every time!
