EXPERIENCES OF DIRECTORS OF COMPANY PRESIDENT I had a wonderful experience that I never had before. This Glowing Diya gave me plenty of experiences and taught me how a real company would be. I learnt about the real company’s structure and functions and circulation of money in a company. I also enjoyed working with Glowing Diya. I saw all the members of the company working with a lot of enthusiasm. I really understood that co-operation is required in running a company without any confusion. Finally I want to thank Junior Achievement, Mr.Mahendran and school which gave me this opportunity of learning. Now I want to wish my juniors of std X who are the next members of the company to work with co-operation and bring success to this programme. N.Amrutha SECRETARY Hi, this is V.P.Anisha , the Company Secretary. Though I took up my responsibility on October 15, the Student’s day of the world, I had no idea of my job. As we are the TEAM initialising the JA company in our school with the name GLOWING DIYA, we were lucky to get lots of guidance and advices from our Principal, volunteers like Mr Mahendran and so on. However we had many PROBLEMS at the start which made our minds wider to RESOLVE them ourselves for our own SECOND PRODUCT. This is where we have learnt the knowledge depth of the commonly used and most boring words for the students like RESPONSIBILITY, TIME MANAGEMENT and TEAM WORK. This programme helped us serving as an instance to meet the “economically competent” world. It also takes pride for us in being a guide to our juniors and in holding our first salary. With best moments, in the company, we part off now, but not forever. Bye…! MARKETING VICE PRESIDENT This JA company gave us an opportunity to learn a great deal about business and economy. It provides an excellent oppourtunity to develop self-esteem and confidence. Holding the post of vice-president of marketing dept. in glowing diya I experienced many different joyful moments. When the production dept. Completed the production, the responsibility came to our dept. to sell the products. We advertised our products through various means like our school intercome, banners and posters. We opened sales during the lunch break. And we had huge ques during sales. Being commerce student, my studies also help me to do marketing better. I wish our juniors good luck for running their company in profit.

ASSISTANT PURCHASE MANAGER First of all, I am really proud of being a member of this JA company programme. I think this International project would be very useful to the students. During this project I not only learnt about the functioning of large companies but how to tackle the problems arising in the company, how to face the competitive world and so on. The aim of this JA company is that, students should run the company and do each and everything by themselves. But at a stage there arouse many problems between the members in our team, even then we managed to solve it by working with cheerfulness as it is necessary to be cultivated for the sake of our friends. I think I am very lucky because in future, I may work in large company but it is chanceless to work with my lovely friends, as I worked here. It is very wonderful. I was very thankful to this founder of this project, to our school management and last but not the least to Mr Mahendran, who guided us in this project.
