“The conventional definition of management is getting work done through people, but real management is developing people through work” – Agha Abedi
Undoubtedly, the organisations which follow this approach create the most productive work environments. In fact, many research findings show that the difference between well-managed and poorly-managed companies largely depends on the quality of people they hire as managers. Therefore, all companies right from major corporations to independent businesses need skilled managers in order to succeed.
Thoughtfully planned business management courses can inculcate the high level of knowledge and attributes which managers require to take the leading roles. I aim to pursue a Bachelor’s course in Business Administration that will provide a strong foundation on entrepreneurialism and how the management world functions. Academically, I obtained 8.4 CGPA in 10th grade from Asian Public School, Chandigarh, India in the year 2015. I performed very well in all subjects in 10th class but my interests in social sciences motivated me to choose Humanities stream in my senior secondary school. This stream included 5 major subjects namely psychology, economics, history, geography and English. I was fascinated with psychology and economics.
Psychology gave me an insight into the issues employees face in an organization. The quote “Employees never leave bad companies, they leave bad bosses” by Beverly Kaye influenced me deeply. . . . write 400 more words of your wish.

IELTS Speaking Part 3: questions related to parties/celebrations

IELTS Speaking Part 3: questions related to parties/celebrations


Question. 1: What are the main reasons why people organise family parties in your country?

Answer: Family parties are very popular in my country. Most People organize special parties on birthdays and marriage anniversaries. Some young adults give parties after getting good grades in their exams or after being promoted to a high level position.

Question 2: In some places people spend a lot of money on parties that celebrate special family events. Is this ever true in your country? Do think this is a good trend or a bad trend?

Answer: Yes, wealthy people in my country throw lavish parties to celebrate special family functions. The pictures of their parties are often shown in newspapers. Even though it’s their own money, I feel that it’s a disturbing trend. It promotes discrimination in society and widens the gap between the rich and the poor.

Question 3: Are there many differences between family parties and parties given by friends? Why do you think this is?

Answer: Yes, there are. Family parties tend to be more formal as compared to parties organized by friends. Social decorum and elegance both are maintained in family functions. On the other hand, people feel freer in the parties of their friends. They normally don’t mind too much drinking or dancing, but in family functions any kind of misbehaviour can create a lot of problems.

National celebrations

Question 4: What kinds of national celebrations do you have in your country?

Answer: My country has two main national celebrations: the Independence Day and the Republic Day. The Independence Day is celebrated on 15th August and the Republic Day is celebrated on 26th January.

Question 5: Why do some people think that national celebrations are a waste of government money? Would you agree or disagree with this view? Why?

Answer: Some governments spend huge sums of money on national celebrations. If a country is facing problems like unemployment, illiteracy, poverty or poor infrastructure, then people will certainly complain about the money spent on national functions. In my view, the government should focus on the development of the nation rather than showcasing their military might in national celebrations.
