Dr. Sanjeev Rai, the founder of 'The School of open ideas' started his lecture by mentioning the works of Jay Shetty in the field of personal and professional development. Jay Shetty is an English author, former Hindu monk, and a life coach of Indian descent.

Doctors Sanjeev Rai urged the participants to maintain their self-esteem. He further said that we can learn from anyone for the betterment of society and ourselves. If the need arises then we have to compare ourselves and it's okay being vulnerable. At the same time, we must respect ourselves along with others.

In the next session, he laid stress on school-based planning. He focused upon teaching-learning processes, school classroom environment, academic support to students and teachers, midday meal and other supportive schemes, infrastructure, need-based fund, and allocation, and various process indicators. Further, he mentioned the school-community linkage including local culture, art, music, etc. He highlighted the importance of planning with the famous saying "if you don't have a plan, you are planning to fail !"

A short session involving the activities performed by the participants was also held. In this session, the participants shared their views as to how they are going to perform after attending these sessions. 

The session after lunch was focused on resource management. Dr. Sanjeev Rai shared a short film titled "the other pair" so that the participants are able to understand the topic easily. "What is useless for someone could be useful for others" was the theme covered in the film. Other areas covered in this session were - meeting and documentation, the barriers of meeting, and essential ingredients of an effective meeting. Dr. Rai suggested the participants take time and take care while drafting something. He also suggested that in order to get the desired outcomes, our agendas and objectives must be clear.

In the final session, one of the participants Mr. Amarendra Kumar shared his book titled 'Adhoore Khwab'. Another participant Mr. Ajay Kumar presented a beautiful and motivational song titled : " Na sath ho koi akele chalo tum,safalta tumhare charan choom legi( ना साथ हो कोई अकेले चलो तुम,सफलता तुम्हारे चरण चूम लेगी)"

At the end of this three-day session we would like to thank our Principal Lalita Pradeep ma'am, our Reader Ashok Nath Tiwari sir, Reader Ramesh Tiwari sir, Reader Amita Singh ma'am for their continued guidance and support. Our lecturers including Smita Jaiswal ma'am, Rupali Divyam ma'am, and Darakshan Abidi ma'am moderated the program very well. 

We hope the program is definitely going to get fruitful and desired results.
