REACH OUT AND TOUCH PEOPLE’S LIVES


Reach Out And Touch People’s Lives

An interactive session was conducted by MENTORING AND COUNSELLING SERVICES (MACS) at Christ Institute of Management, Lavasa on 14th and 15th September 2018 for PGDM2 students. A team led by Professor Noel from Christ University, Bengaluru coordinated the workshop. It features ways and means of “Touching Lives”. The workshop began with Coordinator, Fr Arun Antony’s address. Fr Arun said that it was slightly different from a regular class. He motivated the students to reflect a little more on core moral values as they are being prepared to work as business leaders in the corporate world. These values will empower them to sustain success in the corporate sector.

Professor Noel thanked Director, Fr Jossy P George and Coordinator, Fr Arun profusely for their whole hearted cooperation, encouragement and inspiration. The anchors were overwhelmed by the beauty of the landscape and intend to touch the lives of the students of Christ Institute of Mangement, Lavasa and try to put things in the right perspective through the sessions.

The first session was aptly entitled, `LOVE FOR FELLOW BEINGS and PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE’. The 20 minutes session was highly interactive in nature and Christies participated with zeal and zest. They were uninhibited in expressing themselves and were engrossed in the session from the beginning to the end. The combined session helped them to understand the meaning of life as they watched glimpses from the movie, Will Smith’s `Pursuit of Excellence’. It was truly inspirational and one could feel an air of positivity all around as Christies felt completely motivated. The second session centred around `MORAL UPRIGHTNESS and SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY’. An interactive game and role play were used as techniques to convey the message.  

On 15TH September 2018 the third session was about `FAITH IN GOD’. The activity was suitably entitled “Cup Hurdle”. The Christies were touched immensely as they watched a video, “DNA” which focused on `Love for Fellow Beings’. The meaningful two days ended with a feedback followed by Lighting of the Candle. There were some poignant moments when the students broke down as they felt emotional however, the other fellow students and the organizers comforted them. It is certain that such sessions offer another way of looking at life and campus life is not just limited to information from books. Life is indeed a great teacher.
