Qualities That
A Mba Person Should Have
At present Large number
of people are going for Mba admissions and still most of them are not getting
jobs .it is really a serious matter to discuss we had a example of a student
named ankur and tried to compare with the problems of all the other students…
As a MBA student of a
leading university, he was brilliant at
academics could not secure the job he wanted. He was shortlisted in companies,
but none selected him with job offer. Finally, by frustration he asked his
tenth interviewer what the problem was. Than interviewer said that he could not
clearly articulate his thoughts during the interview. The interviewer had
trouble understanding him. This came as a revelation to Ankur. He take the help
of a friend who had succeeded in number of interviews and asked him for honest
feedback. If Ankur had received this feedback a few years earlier, he could
have worked on it and improved. So why did this not happen?
1. Main thing is
that most people do not react well to negative feedback. The moment they hear
anything negative, they immediately become defensive and start giving excuses
for their performance. Some even become angry and start accusing the person
giving the feedback for their faults! The end result is that the feedback is
not accepted and the relationship between the one who gives feedback and one
who receives it is spoilt.
2. A person who
can give constructive feedback know this and hence typically do not bother to
give any feedback. They get their work done and move on. Therefore people like
Ankur continue to think they are really good until reality shows them otherwise
at some point in the future.
Be Brave To have Negative
feedback
Had you ever tried a
situation when somebody gave you negative feedback. What did you do? How did
you react? If your first thought was to defend your behavior, then you are not
learning anything. So what should you do?
First, seek feedback
proactively. Do not wait for someone to come and tell you what you are weak in.
Find people whom you
respect — it may be your teacher, a senior in your school/college or even a
colleague at work — and ask her, what areas can you improve in? What am I doing
now which I can do even better? You will be surprised to hear some of their
suggestions. Do not react, but ask clarifying questions: “So what do you think
I could have done instead?”.
Even if you think 90 per
cent of their criticism is misplaced, the 10 per cent that is true will help
you identify the areas that you could improve.
Positive feedback is
something we all like to hear. And of course you learn something from that too.
