Corporate Etiquette


Conducted a programme on Corporate Etiquette for the executives of Larsen & Toubro. These were not freshers but a group of reasonably experienced engineers who were quite energetic and interactive. I enjoyed sharing the nuances of grooming and manners witth them.

But I definitely and emphatically made the point that while external appearance is important for making positive first impressions, an internal clarity as to values and integrity was also an essential root to corporate success.

The role play on specific inter personal situations was well demonstrated. I could understand why organizational cultures such those prevailing at L&T can enable high performance and team co ordination.

Mrs. Amala, the HR co-ordinator was extremely supportive and helped make the session relevant t o the audience. Another lady who impressed me was Ms. Lakshana who has done her MBA from IIPM. Mr. Murali was also adding a lot of value to the session.
