Dr. H.L. Kaila – an eminent psychologist and Ex-Head, Department of Psychology, S.N.D.T. University addressed the professors of VIVA College on how important it is to develop oneself from within. He stressed that in order to enhance one’s behaviour, it is necessary to filter and project one’s emotions very carefully. He mentioned behaviour as ‘public property’ and emotions as ‘Private property’. Having said so, he threw light on how to take care of one’s emotional wellbeing and making it better.
As he went down the memory lane, he shared few of his experiences from the teaching field and stated that students remember professors’ kind words and actions even after many years.
Dr. Kaila made the two hours session very beneficial and at the same time light, too, with hos unique style of sprinkling humor throughout.
The program was wound up by a thanking note by Vice Principal Prof. Ms. PrajaktaParanjape. The teachers gave a very positive and constructive feedback and wanted more such talks to happen in future.
