Sourabh Chhajed_BLP006_Self Leadership_May 2012

                As one needs to be aware of the grey areas in order to improve processes in an organization, in the same way to be a self leader it is important to know what matters most to a leader. The day started in search of answer to same question in Anil sir’s class on another exciting day at SOIL after Fresher’s Party.

                On our journey to know more about the Self Leadership, we learned about 6 Layers of Self which in turn talk about the core values of SOIL. Apart from five pillars one more interesting topic which completed the 6 layers was "instincts". This was all about the mind, body and soul which we generally hear everywhere but this time I was totally amazed by the explanations of self realization.

                Before I could take control of my thoughts, discussion shifted to different ways of communication which a Leader should know about. This started with a small activity where we had to communicate an incident through eyes only and I was amazed by the fact that 60% message was conveyed (though it was the smartness of the eye reader:P) and later we got to know that 90% of effective communication could be done through eyes.

                In the same way there were few activities conducted to understand the power of listening (not just hearing) & touching and how these powerful modes of communication can change the world around us. All the activities / thoughts were backed with a couple of examples and incidents which helped us to understand these modes in better way. And the day passed just like that.
