Reflections from workshop participants
"This workshop will be very useful in my daily life in a way that it taught me how to know others whether colleagues, students or any other persons who come in my contact. To live a disciplined life and to be generous, polite, sober and a person of good nature. Try to come to the help of others.
"Sir Snehal Shah and Mrs. Romana Madam made us feel very comfortable in this workshop. We were friendly discussing each and every point. Both made us realise how to be in our life, in our profession and how to treat general people. I admire both of them."

Reflections from workshop participants
"The workshop was quite different from the workshops I have attended so far. The situations given during the workshop for activity looked like real. This type of workshop can change the behaviour of all the human beings. Such type of workshops should be conducted from time to time.
The facilitators’ role was very effective and attractive. Through their personal experiences, they conveyed the information about the workshop and involved each and every participant. The facilitator succeeded in creating conducive environment so that the participants as myself could stay in the meeting hall for 9 to 10 hours."
