Business Communication Week#1&2

Learning by Being Productive 



Hello Friends!!

What would you say when your Professor, in his first class, starts with video song of Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall (Link)? Cool or weird? 

He is T. Prasad Sir, our Business Communication Professor. He has his own different and unique way to of teaching the subject. He is popularly known hai 1/12 Mandi Sir.

Learning of the first week of class - 

 - Communication should be designed by keeping the customer in mind

 - Practising communication is important not studying the theory. This could be done by starting our own ventures.

 - The approach should be - Doing things for learning. Don't follow - Learning things to do something.

 - It is important to register our presence in the digital world i.e. wite blogs, post videos, produce content etc.

 - THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO EARN - MONEY or PAISA or ROKDA while we are in college so that we can pay for the fees of course.

 - Learn from street vendors the art of attracting customer - [Just observe the creativity to sell - दस के चार, मत करो विचार, ले जाओ चार, दस के चार।]

Important questions you should ask yourself while you communicate - 

What I want to communicate? [Quality, Quantity, Goal, Vision etc]

What are my Barriers?

Why you want to communicate? [To sell a good or service or yourself]


Types of Communication- Based on your type of communication your approach and style both should vary.

  1. One to One - [with the customer, with higher/lower authority]
  2. One to Many - [to a small group, group discussion]
  3. One to Crowd - [mass communication]
  4. Talking in front of the camera
How to deal with negative information? - An interesting communication between Churchill and Mahatma Gandhi beautifully demonstrates this quality of Gandhiji to deal with such an incident. [Churchill to Gandhi - You are a Naked Fakir, I'll Crush you. In response to this Gandhiji replied - Mr Churchill from a long I wanted to be fair. So, I take your comment as a compliment although you didn't intend it.]

An important learning from the MBA Chaiwala (A famous tea seller) - Dream Big - Start Small - Act Now - Show Persistence.
