The best course over

Why do i feel so sad that the 3 day course is over

Maybe it's because it was the best course ever

Maybe it's because the trainer was great. He's a university professor who seemed so excited and entertained to teach us. He really has passion to teach adults like us.

But it's not the first time that ivh had a great and wise professor.

Maybe it's because he really makes the time and effort to get to know every single one of us by name in the 3 short days, and he takes the time to interact with each and every single one of us.

Maybe it's because he shares these personal stories of his wife and kids that I feel like I know him so well

I feel like I really have learnt so much from him these few days. He is really such an inspiring teacher. And he would be an equally amazing boss..

Maybe it's because he managed to foster a feeling of closeness amongst the class. He forced us to switch places every day. For the first time I actually feel close to almost half of my course mates and I feel sad that I'm leaving them. Usually I'm only sad to say goodbye to the one or 2 I have bonded with. With all of the case studies and role play, I really feel surprisingly close to most of them.

Maybe it's because my course mates are great. I keep worrying that they will see me as a phony coz I'm so young. And most of them have worked for like 8 or 10 years or more. But they accepted me as a peer. And it's like I suddenly have a support network that I can look to when I need help on how to manage staff. It's not like before where I'm just floundering in the deep. It is true that the higher u climb the more lonely u get.

This course has really opened by world view on how to be good management. I hope that I will be able to do it.

It helped me to understand myself and identify my weaknesses. Will work more on the cross division cooperation and on growing my subordinates and letting them devise solutions on their own.

I am so amazed and enlightened.
