We’re thrilled to share that under the leadership of our President, Mr. Sanjeev Harale, and Sr. Vice President, Mr. Paresh Thakkar, we successfully launched the 1st Session of our Webinar Series on Soft Skills Training Development! This initiative highlights our commitment to fostering essential skills in today’s dynamic business landscape. We were honored to have Dr. Meena Sinha, an esteemed educator and corporate trainer, as our guest speaker. Her insights into the significance of soft skills were enlightening and relevant as we navigate a rapidly evolving global market. President Mr. Sanjeev Harale emphasized the vital role of soft skills in enhancing business capabilities, particularly as India continues to rise on the global stage under Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. With transformative projects like Vadhwan Port on the horizon, our nation’s global footprint is set to expand. Sr. Vice President Mr. Paresh Thakkar welcomed our 270 participants, highlighting that strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential for success in today’s interconnected world. Dr. Sinha expertly guided us through effective communication, introducing concepts like the Johari Window to encourage open dialogue. A key takeaway was her mantra: “Learn, unlearn, and relearn,” which resonates deeply as we strive for continuous improvement. The BCBA Training & Skill Development Committee, led by Chairs Chaitaly Mehta and Tej Contractor, has been instrumental in rolling out innovative programs that support the skill development of our members. Let’s embrace these learnings and commit to enhancing our soft skills—together, we can build a brighter future! Thank you to everyone who participated in this enriching session!
