PRIME Academy Valedictory

I addressed the students of PRIME Academy on Examination Techniques. I spoke about motivation and the need for positive thinking. The speech appears to have been well received. Ms. Aishwarya one of the participants at my GMCS programme at the ICAI said of all the speakers who spoke that day, I could hold the attention of the students longer.

The Guest of Honour was Mr. A N Raman, a Central Counmcil member of the Institute of Cost and Management Accountants of India. He is also a nominated representative at IFAC (The International Federation of Accountatnts) wherein both ICAI and ICMAI are members.

Mr. A N Raman spoke about the need for global spread in professional knowledge. He related his role as a member of the Committee at IFAC. He spoke about how IFAC classifies Accounting members as Value Creators - Those who are into strategy, Value Enablers, Value Preservers and Finally Value Reporters. He felt Accountants in India continue to perceive themselves as Value Reporters . He urged trhat the future CAs should strive to become Value Creators.
