Hi Vikas, Dinesh, Harish and others
after reading email from all of you, i get this feeling, that
though there were problems and difficultys, convention was by and
large success.
there is always scope for impruving events. and
any suggestions should not be ignored.
Harish i congratulate you for showing very mature and megnanemas leadrship,
by taking critical views also in to account and directly dealing with them.
yes like others, i am also waiting for recording of this convention.
keep up the good work, and big thanks to Gujarati's for hosting the
convention!!!

Hello all
I appreciate the feedback regarding the convention and take them
all in right spirit.
Let me go over through it:
1) Introduction of members was not done
We were planning to it in a different way. We wanted introduction to
be done by different persons and so was with offering bouquets to
the speakers. This would get an opportunity for large number of
participants to come to the stage and inderectly get introduced.
We started with it all right, however it was taking more time and we
had to abandon it all together.
We had actually planned the introduction session during the cultural
session which was scheduled at karnavati hostel. The Karnavati
hostel had a nice gardenwhere we were planning to keep it. Some
logistic problems proped up and the cultural programme had to be
done at the auditorium
2 Segregation of its own members:
I am not aware of any segregation but this is of paramount concern
to me if any member felt so. I would have appreciated if members
should have brought it to my notice and I could have taken a
remedial action. All the members with whom I interacted with did not
put forth any such feedback. All the feedbacks which kept pouring in
the last session was very positive.
3) dearth of volunteers:
I agree , this could have been better and something to work on in future
4) the lousy preparation in terms of broadcasting this convention :
I am afraid, I can't take this. Firstly I had not made any promisses
on it and offered to make an attempt on reaching there. Network
fascility was indeed arranged but some glitch took place while
connecting the laptop to the hub which could not be resolved and
enough effort could not be done on it due to other compelling priorities.
5) Imbalanced time to speakers:
I have a contrary take on it. I am in fact happy our programme
hostess did not allow any session to get choked which usually takes
place in such presentations and judiously intervened when ever
required. Keeping sensitive to participants request she also gave an
additional slot obliging requests made to her. Comming particularly
to your session, it was very unfortunat that incidently your session
got scheduled on the last part of the day and we had to clos in as
members had to take their journey back. I can assure it was not
intended and was only incedental.
6)time management:
I don't think we fared badly on that as no time was wasted between
sessions. Things went smoothly and good enough time was given to
speakers and Q&A
Finally, a negative feedback from my side which was not reported by anyone:
I did not spend time with participants, I could say only hi and with
many I could not do even that.
My profound appology on that and I shall not make anyattempt to give
any excuses. I certainly failed on that, I am aware of it and feel
extremely guilty about it. All I can ask to be excused and I am
confident our members shall with a big heart bear with me for any
short commings, lapses or anything which made them unhappy.
I hope on the positive side this convention proved benificial to
some and was worth coming over and organising it in the first place.
Yours
Harish.
