On September 1, 2022, we trainees had a seminar on the topic of 'Self-Motivation.' The day began at 9:00 AM in the conference room. After an initial introduction, we were divided into small groups. In these groups, we prepared a role-play that involved motivating all the employees of a company to participate in a half-marathon. This exercise led to a variety of ideas that were subsequently presented to the entire team. After the presentation of the individual proposals, we learned about the SMART method. This method helps in setting goals that are realistic and achievable. Afterwards, we applied this method to our personal goals.
Later, we talked about time management and took a self-test. Before evaluating the results, we took an extensive break and were treated to delicious sandwiches from the company. Once we were re-energized, we reviewed the results. In conclusion, we received 15 tips on how to avoid procrastinating on tasks for too long. All in all, it was a successful day. The trainees were able to get to know each other better and the collaboration was strengthened. Additionally, I was able to take away quite a bit from the seminar and am trying to implement the tips and tricks.Thank you for your attention. Soon, there will be something new to read from us.
