The 'L' Experience

Finally my best bet day arrived on 22nd February.

Any other special thing that day:
Reached 2 hours in advance and had to roam around Safina Plaza.

Venue :Hotel Monarch Luxur,Bangalore

GD: If you give a man a fish,he eats it once.You teach a man to fish,you loose a business oppportunity.

Number of Ppl present - 10
Time:30 minutes(To write about the topic)+ 15 minutes (To discuss)

Brief Snapshot of Discussion:
Was 9th in the group.All people were from good companies and had significant work-ex.
It tended to move towards fish market sitution.But common sense prevailed mutually where the guy who kept speaking was given the chance to keep speaking.

Group Performance:
Everyone got a decent chance to present the views.Junta was very much IT ccntric and coaching funda mentality.
Gave examples on FDI at the outstart :)IT companies case studies, what happens in my company,that company etc.One good point was abt creating terrorism thru trainings.

Was quite receptive to my different ideas as they focussed less on IT :)

My Performance :
Came in late..maybe after 3-4 minutes as was cut each time I tried to enter.
Finally made a successful entry.Gave examples on:
*Mind Tree Consulting
*Alexander the Great
*Pakistani bowlers Akram and Shoaib
*Leadership
*Importance of teachers

Might have been in top 2 based on content basis.

PI:
Was 9th when entered the room.It was already 5 PM.

My initial smiles had got lost into nervousness after semiconductor wala question.
Finally,when I was leaving,I felt it went for only 5 minutes only to realize it might have been 10 minutes.
