Prerna 4.0 - Bringing smiles to the faces of children - SIBM Pune

These enterprising mentors offer their skills in a gamut of areas, right from conducting storytelling sessions to organising craft workshops, among other things. In addition to the benefits to the children who are part of the workshops, a single day of such interactions instills valuable skills like empathy, compassion and a sense of understanding in the young mentors, as well as providing an eye-opening and fulfilling experience.

Prerna 4.0 was inaugurated on November 23^rd, 2014 by Dr. Raman, Director, SIBM Pune and the alumni of SIBM Pune. The theme for the first session was Team Work, under the name “Ekta Mein Shakti Hain”. The session saw 30 kids between the ages of 8-12 years come to the campus, under the tender guidance of 12 carefully chosen mentors from the batch.

Prerna 4.0 was successful in achieving the goal of imparting to the children an understanding of the dynamics of working in a group, constructive and effective communication with peer groups, identification of the role of leadership, and the way in which it emerges.
