After assigning yourself a score for each item on the inventory, select any three that you feel
knowledgeable about and confident in possessing. You may choose greatest strengths or areas of
improvement, and this will not be used against you in any way.

You will explain why you think each of the three fits you and why you scored yourself as you did.
Here, you must provide examples from your experience that demonstrate your indicated level of
skill, knowledge, or inclination. Further, you must specify how you might go about improving
your skills, knowledge, or disposition. What are your developmental goals and how might you
pursue them? This will help us assign you to committees and design learning experiences for you
wherein and through which you will perform best and further develop as a professional.

Here is space for you to note your thoughts and prepare to speak. Remember, behavioural
examples and development goals and strategies are required.

1.Organisation and management skills: Since childhood ,I have always been self-focused and
self-driven to complete any kind of task. In my organization ,I had to manage a team of 10
subordinates where I used to monitor the daily routine activities,ensure that operation is running
smoothly and see if nobody is facing any problems. I have even tried to motivate one of them and
achieved fruitful results.I have also organized cultural fest of my college where I was part of
external publicity and catering services.Hence I rated myself high on this skill.

2.Social Skills:I try to maintain a perfect blend of patience and conversation among the group for
the better performance of the same.I can communicate well and never dominate on others ,rather
try to think and understand from other’s point of view as well.I have also volunteered in teaching
group of 10 small children in vocational camps organised by my company in partnership with a
NGO .Therefore, I have rated myself high on this.

3.Teamwork: I rated myself high on teamwork as I have been the active supporter of cohesive and
cooperative style of working whether I was in college or in workplace.It helps in completing the
task efficiently and accurately since everybody is familiar of each other’s strength and weakness
and can work upon it in collaboration. As mentioned above, I have headed a group of 10 members
in the last organization and we used to work as a team where every task was solved accurately
because of this strong bonding and belief in teamwork.

Case for Nomination

1. First Preference.:Media And Public Relations Committee:

I like meeting new people from any background and get to know them as well. I like listening to
people and always try to understand their problem or desires and try to help them. I like challenges
and always ready to take one as I am flexible and adaptive person. From childhood ,I love writing
stuff and there was I time I used to write novels and short stories. I have social presence in various
digital platforms where I love to connect with different people.
2. Second First Preference.: Social and Cultural committee:-I have a past experience in
working in organizing committee of cultural fest of my college where I was managing internal and
publicity team responsible for inviting participation from various schools and colleges and
soliciting sponsorship to make our fest as big as possible. Our team successfully invited around 12
regional colleges to participate in the fest and draw sponsorship from some local and big shops and
stores.

3. Second Preference. Vaudeville organizing committee: It is the biggest annual business-

cultural event hosted by IMT which provides plethora of opportunities to participate in various
events and also allow us to be the part of the organizing committee. So, I want to be part of the
organizing committee.

4. Third Preference.CSR and Citizen Committee: Doing social service by teaching students in
vocational camps for skill enhancement in computers organized by my last organization in
partnership with NGO have been he most joyful moment of my life. Whenever I have got
opportunity to offer help in such kind of initiative I have never backed my step. In college also I
had a brief experience of teaching very small students .I have also participated in Yamuna Clean
Drive organized by UN.So, I feel that I have the right attitude to work in such type of committee.
