Mini Seminar

On Friday, 8th February, 2013, the First Mini Seminar for the term was held at the Databank Board Room. 
In attendance where 6 mentees, 4 Junior mentors and a senior mentor. 
The topic discussed was Personal Hygiene and Good Grooming. The guest speaker for the mini seminar was Dr. Juliette Tuakli, the founder and medical director of CHILDAccra.
In discussing the topic, suggestions where raised about how to keep ones self neat and refreshed, by being sensitive to body odours and other hygienic issues. She also focused on the good grooming emphasizing that the non verbal communication say a lot about people more than the verbal communication. So as young adults, we should be  particular about what we communicate to others through our appearance and behaviours. 
Followed, after the discussion of the personal hygiene and good grooming, was a 15 minutes assessment of the progress of the relationship between the mentees and the mentors. Interesting assessments where revealed which would be used in subsequent programmes to develop Africa's emerging leaders.  


The mini seminar started at 3pm and ended at 5pm.
