ELSA TALK SERIES


Changing Behaviour


ELSA Talks in Bangalore (1st edition) in collaboration with The Oberoi, February 18

We, in Bangalore, were enthused by the success of ELSA Talks in Delhi. This prompted us to start a similar series here in Bangalore. ELSA Talks is a forum to encourage discussions amongst influencers and decision makers on social and cultural issues.The topic for the inaugural talk was “Changing Behaviour”. The eminent panel featured Mr Bhaskar Bhat, Managing Director, Titan Company Ltd. and Chairman of Vistara, Ms Manju Subramanyam, Principal of Delhi Public School, Bangalore North and Dr Radha Murthy, Co-Founder and Managing Trustee of the Nightingales Medical Trust. The event was moderated by our very own ELSA, Vinita Bali.

We had a very appreciative audience engaged in a meaningful dialogue with the panelists at the end of the discussion. There were many takeaways and many unanswered questions and as usual, we ran out of time.


Some feedback comments

  • “Had wonderful, thought provoking and enlightening evening. Meeting my college mates was special. Thank you.”
  • “Was a wonderful evening. Some very interesting insights.”
  • “My thoughts...Each of the topics were mega topics independently and could be stand alone sessions. I too connected with Radha's concerns. This is a reality which the sandwich generation has to deal with, and in that context I found her overall pessimism understandable. Manju's optimism was wonderful as well but it felt like two different zones and hence challenges. I thoroughly enjoyed the talk. And again, a big thank you to all the organizers.”
  • “Wanted to drop a big thank you for Sunday. It’s a great initiative and an awesome kick off. Kudos to you & the team who pulled it off. So nice to see the alumnae actively engage in a broader, meaningful way.”
  • “It was an excellent panel discussion, much better than I had expected. Vinita Bali was an outstanding moderator — I can see her talent clearly now. I am so glad that I went. It will be fantastic if ELSA can maintain this quality of events every month. They said that they are planning such events every month.“
Our panelists also say:

- “Thank you for having me over. Enjoyed every moment”-Manju Balasubramanyam
- “It was very value adding for me as well” -Bhaskar Bhat .

We are happy to announce our second edition of Elsa Talks being held on April 15, 2018 at The Oberoi Bengaluru. The next topic is “Pursuing Excellence” . We look forward to more ELSAs and friends join us.
