I used to live in the world of perceptions, assumptions and preconceived notions which became obstacles in my thoughts and decision-making process.
Like me there were few other colleagues too. After evaluating and analysing this concerned situation, our HR organised a two-day workshop away from office titled “Who am I?”. We were thrilled with the thought of being away from office and home for some “Me Time”.
The day unfolded with a lot of self introspection and reflection. We shared our past incidents and our decision-making process. When we collated our personal experience, the findings startled each one of us. We continued to behave in a particular manner and so was our outcome.
To break free this limiting factor we were introduced to a few techniques and methods. One such exercise was “Perceptual Positions”. Any situation where one had an argument or disagreement with someone, we were told to look at the same situation from our own perspective, other person perspective and finally with the third person perspective.
The life seemed completely simplified. It’s high time to look at situations from several perspectives before concluding and making concrete decision. Today my relationship with my team and peers at large has improved and strengthened.
Undoubtedly, Behavioral Training Program helps in professional growth but at Cargosol we believe in growing holistically too.
