Rama RaoI want to share my experience and express my gratitude. On June 20'14 our VP was arriving from Hong Kong to meet us and see how we were performing. Our manager asked us to prepare individual presentation to show what we have been doing here since we joined and tell him about our contribution towards this business growth. This was the first time in my service of 12 years I was giving a presentation. I had no good ideas about presentation but I am top performer in my team. I was afraid I am working in this company for last 5.8 years now and if I do not present well then people might doubt about my ability, I was nervous. I started reading the blog and found one situation matching with mine and then I call Shobana madam and asked if I can follow the below and she suggested yes its good while attending any meetings. What I did the before day of the meeting? Made 2 concentric circles
One with my name in the centre and WATER VIOLET, LARCH, GENTIAN and WILD ROSE in the outer circles in that order
Another one with my name in the centre along with the person I was making the presentation to, date and location and ELM, GORSE and HEATHER in the outer circles in that order.Kept these two papers in my file and started my day chanting Ambika mantra; Tons of thanks to Naran, this amazingly worked out, sequence of what happened:
As I got into the office, the VP was just come in car behind me; I was the first to meet him and wished him good morning.
I was so confident and we went to the meeting room again all the seats we occupied and only one chair next to VP was left. I had no choice but to sit. He started talking to me while other team members were quite nervous, I was not and was very casual with him
I was the last to share my presentation and it was really amazing that is was not nervous at any point and was able to present well about our team work. Our VP told it is good to see my presentation where I have used some words which no one has used. I was very happy.The day was very smooth. We had lunch with him and our manager was very happy that we all presented well very on the day. Once again thank you, we are blessed to have you on earth sent by god to advise how to lead life easily.
