Mr. Roy began by asking students what their idea of personal branding was & then began a conversation about why Personal branding really counts. He began by asking students to volunteer to come up on the stage & asked “How would they define themselves as a person” and this he said creates a perception about them for others. He explained the importance of identifying themselves through the initial days of their career as it will ultimately contribute to their personality. The whole session was to motivate students and help them brand themselves through a portfolio and resume on LinkedIn, all to create a strong impact on the onlooker. He even asked them how many of them prefer to be in a place 5 minutes prior to the due time, as being punctual, having humility, and acknowledging others while also taking care of how they dress, each quality contributes to making lifelong connections.
The event was concluded by a question & answer round in which the students got a chance to clear their doubts and recap what Personal Branding really is. In the presence of more than 120 students, Ms. Trisha Poddar, from Pearl Academy, Mr. Avik Roy was felicitated by Prof. Dilip Shah, Dean of Students Affairs.
