Brief Report of the Event:

Being mindful involves observing the circumstances without passing judgment on them. It is, in a nutshell, being present. In any case, being aware of our actions benefits people from all walks of life. IT workers who are overly engrossed in their job in an inert, interface-driven environment for an extended period of time often operate in “Auto pilot mode,” which causes them to become less conscious and more robotic in their behaviours. The concept of mindfulness was introduced at the beginning of the session. A brief task to see if Employees frequently operate in autopilot mode. It was highlighted how the session outline differs from mindfulness-based therapy. Its origins in Buddhist teachings and the ways in which the west popularized it were both covered. The lesson continued with a focus on the significance and meaning of “Present,” illustrated by a scene from the Kung Fu Panda movie in which Master Logway is heard saying, “Yesterday is a gift, tomorrow is a mystery, that is why it is called Present.” The topic of how to multitask and still stay mindful was covered in the session The key components of mindfulness—letting go, accepting, focusing, being patient, not passing judgment, having trust, and having an open mind—were thoroughly covered. Every participant took actively participated in the conversation and expressed their opinions. The lecturer continued by going over the benefits of practicing mindfulness for both physical and mental wellness. Towards the end of the program, there were techniques for increasing mindfulness.

Brief Report of the Event:

addition to the conventional leadership roles and duties, today's unpredictable workplace necessitates that leaders be far more perceptive of their workers' top priorities. Far too many leaders believe that others share their passion for achievement and readiness to make sacrifices in order to progress. Since each person is unique, leaders need to be more conscious of embracing this fact and using it to their advantage to develop and maintain special opportunities both inside their departments and for the company as a whole. This is when a manager can benefit from emotional intelligence. Ms. Sweedol, Ms.Nafeesa, SWO, AEF , the spoke person’s featured three main business divisions: Lifestyle, Connected Car, and Professional. To keep employees motivated throughout organizational restructuring brought on by mergers and acquisitions, managers must possess a high degree of emotional intelligence. Therefore, they recognized the necessity for an emotional intelligence workshop. Based on the speaker's proficiency in the area of emotional intelligence, the session was identified. Prof. Shrikanth, Department of CS&E gave a quick introduction of the resource person before the session began. After that, there was an ice-breaking activity that the participants thought was amusing. Following that, seven distinct scenarios from an IT employee's work life were presented to the audience to pique their interest in emotional intelligence. The task assigned to each situation's participant was to choose which answer best fit the given question. The audience was made aware of emotional intelligence—or rather, lack thereof—by their replies. Here is an illustration of a scenario and some potential fixes for it. Each group's spokesperson talked on how they would handle the EI issue in that particular situation. The methods for enhancing each of the EI components were then discussed. It was discussed how to become more self-aware by practicing regular introspection, noticing your feelings and behaviour on a daily basis, asking for feedback, having the courage to admit when you are wrong, taking an honest look at your strengths and weaknesses, saying "STOP" aloud when you come across illogical thoughts and cognitive distortions, and other techniques.

Brief Report of the Event:

An prevalent issue in the workplace is stress. A significant portion of missed workdays are believed to be caused by stress in addition to other psychosocial hazards. Stress at work is an organizational problem that cannot be solved solely on an individual basis. When a worker’s ability to handle demands at work is exceeded, organizational stress results. It is primarily a psychological problem. Excessive or conflicting work demands, a lack of involvement and control over job performance, inadequate communication and support, psychological and sexual harassment, aggression against third parties, poorly handled organizational change, and job instability are some of the possible causes. Stress that is not controlled has two consequences. Both the person and the organization are impacted. The hurdles for the individual may include: poor physical health, drug and alcohol misuse, personal problems, difficulty focusing and making mistakes, burnout and depression, etc. The following issues are related to organizations: subpar business performance overall; rising rates of accidents and injuries; rising rates of tardiness and absence from work; etc. Clearly, the advantages of controlling psychosocial risks and stress at work outweigh the implementation costs. Therefore, Dr. Harish, planned to examine the organizational role stress. The session were raising employee well-being and job satisfaction, creating a healthy, driven, and productive workforce, increasing overall performance and productivity, lowering absenteeism and staff turnover rates, and cutting operating expenses. After that, employees’ levels of organizational stress were measured Used. A standardized instrument. Inter-Role Distance (IRD), Role Stagnation (RS), Role Expectation Conflicts (REC), Role Erosion (RE), Role Overload (RO), Role Isolation (RI), Personal Inadequacy (PI), Self-Role Distance (SRD), Role Ambiguity (RA), and Resource Inadequacy (RIN) are the ten organizational role stressors that are measured using this scale. The participants' ORS level was determined after they answered the scale's items. A small number of individuals who were willing to share information about their individual ORS scores and potential causes were talked about in the group. In addition, coping strategies for the mentioned stresses were covered in relation to the particular topics. The ABC approach—Awareness, Balance, and Control—was often articulated in relation to the different role pressures. Participants in the activity were asked to list all of the things, names, and combinations of stressors they felt affected their life. It was encouraged for individuals to have candid conversations about the same topic with other participants.
