Welcoming The Speaker - I Am Nervous - PDF Download

Hi Prema,
You are feeling nervous because you are visualizing that something may wrong.
Now start visualizing good things such as that audience are clapping after the speech,facilitators are happy listening to it .Take deep breathing few minutes before the speech. Regard yourself as lucky who has been chosen to give small speech welcoming the speaker.Audience , staff are all familiar people so nothing to be scared of.facilitators are teachers & they will not feel bad even if some mistakes get occurs. facilitators are meant to correct your mistakes.So grab this opportunity & have new experiences, learn new things.

Dear Poornima,

First things first ... 'Success' never comes easily and 'failure' doesn't mean you lost everything in that particular moment. Remember, every failure gives you an opportunity to learn something new. By now, I am sure that you have enough experienced this.

Well, knowing the knowledge of hr terms and experiencing these terms as functions are two different things. This can be the reason where you were lacking in addressing to the questions from interviewers.

If you are seeking an opportunity in HR, first you should understand the profile and its dedicated functions. To give you some ease, here is a list of activities for a common HR:

Induction, Orientation, and Joining Formalities

Manpower planning, recruitment/selection

Training & Development

Welfare & Motivational activities

Compensation/ Salary administration

Employee relations, Employee Feedbacks, Employee engagement

Performance Appraisals, Increments

Promotions/ Transfers

Statutory compliances under various acts

PF, ESI, Medical Insurance policies and adherence

Exit formalities, F&F

General Administration

Time Office (attendance and leaves related)

Employee Database maintenance and updation

You may not need to practice everything at this stage but you should know the importance of these roles.

ONE sure thing that you should maintain during your interviews: present your CONFIDENCE with an loving SMILE.

I must suggest you to take a break in applying for HR jobs, and give time to yourself to understand the nitty-grittys of these roles. Further, one important suggestion --- be a regular visitor to this forum and enhance your knowledge.

No question in this world is a silly one and Nobody is an expert. Don't feel shame on yourself rather follow the 'W' question family ........... Good luck for your future!

Hi
I guess the best thing is to be the way you are. Be natural, the way you are with your colleagues and smile, have an eye contact with everyone.
This will help you to get rid of the fear since as a human being we start everything afresh in life always.So cheer up buddy!!!
Just Rock, you are the best!!!

Well guys looks like I am the odd one out on this.... but how abt trying to start with the words...
Respected faculties, Im not sure how you do your jobs so gracefully, enthusiastically and unhesitatingly - but believe me that I have had to prepare this speech to welcome you and am currently shivering in doing so..... (at this point I foresee some laughter from the crowd and the facillitators) and if that does happen you have conqquered their interest in what you have to say. CAUTION - from this point onward be brief and to the point. Dont forget to tell the facillitators to enjoy themselves and the participants to fully participate and enjoy (if you are supposed to do so)
Cheers!!!
P.s Have a wonderful program
FACE YOUR FEARS TO BANISH THEM

Oh my god .. a lot of things have already been discussed .... You guys are just amazing ....such a great experience shared by you people .......
Now as far as my knowledge is concerned , i have given speeches a lot of times and two times i just forgot the lines in front of the people .... i know it does not sound good but it happened then at that point of time its very important that speaker should be prepared that audience would like to keep listening instead of a blank face .... thatswhat i did .... i couldnt speak which i prepared but i spoke something related to topic ..... and Prema i am sure you must be a scintillating employee of your organization thatswhy you have been choosen ..... so just use your good communication skills with a smile ......
it will definitely sort out the problem ....
After reading the speech you just need to speak 'The way you think is better' ......
** All the Best **

Today afternoon i have to give the speech...let me share my experience tomorrow! Thanks a tonnnnnnnnnnnnn for all your advises. I WILL GIVE THE SPEECH WITH CONFIDENCE!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Prema
Please see the eyes of the Audience and then the Speaker. Go with over confidence that you can only give fantastic speach. First have a smiling face and welcome with a small story if possible. You will obviously become a successful speaker one day.
All the best

Ensure You Speak infront of the Mirror atleast 3 times before facing the audience.
All the very BEst.
Enjoy LIFE
