After investing 20 years of my life in academics I still wonder sometimes as to what I have been doing all these years as a teacher. Depending upon my frame of mind I do get different responses but nothing concrete. Many a times when I introduce myself as a Chartered Accountant working for management institution teaching students, people are taken a back and with their reaction even I am now forced to introspect whether I did the right thing or not. People do ask me what do I do as a teacher and my simple answer as always been that I study and imparts behavioral training to my students. I try to best of my ability help students become self-aware by making them to understand their thinking patterns and accordingly help them change themselves. Many a times I have seen people making a faces exclaiming none can change another person. Such a person doesn’t exist. All this kept me wondering as to what I was doing in the teaching profession was a thankless job… as they say …Those who can, DO. Those who can’t, TEACH. Last week we had Final Research Project Viva for our graduating PGDM scholars. I was one of the faculty cum director on the panel. We started viva bit early as most of the students were already placed with different organizations. One after the another student walked in and when it was my turn to ask question I restricted myself to ask what behavioral difference they experience in themselves now specially when they are working. It was really pleasant experience to see the confidence and hear such great experiences from the young minds.
