Business Communication -The Beginning

It was the day we have been waiting for months, with COVID glooming all over our lives , the only thing we were certain of is the uncertainty about future. Shattering all the myths surrounding the education for next term, NITIE has shrine light during this turbelent times by switching to the digital platform and ensuring that the students careers are kept on track. Virtual on boarding, Virtual ceremonies etc were conducted smoothly to give students a feel that they are in NITIE. Management struggle to give best to their students has been evident.

Our classes began, one of the subjects we have is about business communication. I wondered , how can one teach business communication virtually. The class began with a pink Floyd video of re-imagining education.

Then sir has explained how the education should be and why traditional education fails to deliver the results. According to him unless you go there and communicate you cannot understand. Then he introduced the maha mandi, event which is flagship event of NITIE which emphasizes learning by selling.

Some of the key take aways from the lecture :

 1/12 concept : You must earn 1 lakh back during the MBA course per 12 lakh you invest. With an aim to earn, you will learn by doing. This concept was summed up using the below lyrics :

“Becho Becho Becho , Bech Bechke Seko”

 

In the next lecture , sir has emphasized on the requirement of learning by doing.

What one does should be visible to the world. Thanks to the developed technology, people has been able to reach masses through social media .We are able to meet people of different countries just a click away. When you google a person, we get lot of details about them. We are in a digital space where information can be conveyed to masses with an ease that past generations envy.

How can we use the digital development to our advantage?

First of all your presence should be visible on digital media.

Unwind yourselves, Create beautiful content using your creativity on youtube , facebook, blogs, twitter etc.

Be Flamboyant, express what you feel, believe in , like or learn freely in the media. Technology has given a stage for you with audience virtually unlimited, step on the stage and share your beautiful thoughts with the world.

Here you might think that I’m not good enough, my English is bad, I need to learn more before I write etc. But learning some times should be about starting, doing and then improving. Sir has summarized it by saying one should not “aim , aim, aim” and then shoot instead one should “shoot, shoot, shoot and then aim”. You should always learn by doing , first start doing and then you will automatically start learning.

With many more lectures to come , I'm excited about the subject.
