A Self Evaluation
Experiences from the journey from a
backward village like Karatagi in Gangavathi
Taluk of Hydearabad-Karnataka region to Bangalore have shaped
my personality.
There were only two choices - accept a life of limited opportunities
or strive to move
forward, taking on the contemporary challenges of the 21 st
century knowledge society.
I have consciously opted for the latter and
tried to achieve personal success without
compromising relevance
to society. In addition to my resolve to succeed, studies in
Literature have helped me to draw inspiration from the rich
experiences captured in letters
by the great minds.
My travel within the country and
abroad provided me valuable personal experiences
to evaluate the
situation and relate it to the societal needs. I also discovered that I had
some ability to write in Kannada; a series of articles,
collection of poems, a travelogue and a
few editorials emerged
out of this ability.
Although the above seem to be mutually exclusive
of each other, I have tried to bind them together in a common thread of Human
Relation Management and Training for enhanced efficiencies.
Besides my parents, many accomplished
personalities with their unique abilities of
immense social value have influenced my thoughts: the
humility of my learned Professor
Dr.Siddhalinga Pattanashetty,Former Vice chancellors Dr. M M Kalaburgi, Dr. N Prabhudev,
insightful analytical abilities, encyclopedic knowledge of
Karnataka’s current affairs combined
with a concern for social justice and
equity of Prof. Ravindra Reshme.
The honesty, integrity, efficiency
synergistically combined with compassion in
the personalities of Dr.R. Ramapriya and Prof. R.M.Ranganath
(Former Registrar Bangalore University)
all have left an indelible print in my mind.
I consider extremely lucky and blessed for the
opportunities to associate myself with some great contemporary minds.
In sum, I have so far succeeded in
combining learning and training (hopefully in the right
proportions) to perform as a socially responsible person,
willing to swim in the challenging
seas of 21st century opportunities, without of course
forgetting my obligations to contribute
meaningfully to the societal needs.
