1 BUSINESS COMMUNICATION Part A I am currently studying in a reputed college. I have taken up the Marketing subject for my master’s degree. I was asked to organize a program in the college. I was not satisfied with my own performance and realized the need of learning the managerial skills for my future career growth. Along with the degree course, I decided to take up a training session for learning and developing managerial skills. I have gathered information from various sources and decided to take up a certification course. This course will enhance my practical knowledge of marketing. I have also started participating in various events in order to improve my managing skills. My future job, as a marketing manager will be easier for me to handle. I will be effectively studying, understanding and analyzing the team members and will be able to allot the right task to them. These learning give a platform for me to practically deal with the customers, clients and other members in order to achieve my target in my future career. I aspire to hold a position in a very reputed company and effectively handle the team, come up with new strategies so that the current scenario never arises in the future.
2 BUSINESS COMMUNICATION Part B Putting first things first refers to making sure that those things or aspects in life, which matter the most to someone, must be kept atop the list of the rest of the alternatives. To be more elaborate, a person must decide on giving priority to those activities that comply the best with his or her own values and beliefs. If I could adopt this habit of putting first things first, it would have been highly beneficial to me since I would have been able to sort activities in a way, which would suit my interests the best, thereby leading to a satisfactory lifestyle. As a student who lives far from home, I am often faced with dilemmas regarding choices that I should make. These could be regarding choices between having to complete my assignments, or go out to the gym to maintain my fitness, or take some leisure time out for myself. Having a good internal look into myself would give me a vivid idea of my own values, thereby helping me to make decisions that matter to me the most.
