Mr. Payank Patel Life Member Seeking Clarification.

Audience consisted of 54 hard-core professionals whoenjoyed the talk every bit.

Branch Chairman Mr. H. K. Gupta mentioned in hisinaugural talk that:

“Friends, A lot of people think that winning a negotiationis all about mastering the language skills of bargaining,and to some degree that’s correct. It’s not enoughthough. Very few negotiators understand importance ofnon-verbal communication, which is why they end uplosing because they couldn’t master or control their bodylanguage. Your body can say a lot more than your voicein business, and because we’re humans sometimes ourinvoluntary gestures can bring to the surface emotionswe want to keep hidden.

“Mandarin & Cantonese, the Chinese languages arespoken by almost one sixth of the population. Almostthe same numbers for Hindi & other vernacular Indianlanguages. English is only 5%, 360 millions and yet wespend all our energy on learning English. It is fashionableto learn French in school which is only 1% – yours trulyhas also done a 2 years diploma course in French.

In school, nursery, KG to 12th & subsequently in collegeto too we are taught English. English Grammar.
