IKEBANA is the Japanese art of flower arrangement. It is more than simply putting flowers in a container. It is a disciplined art form in which the arrangement is a living thing where nature and humanity are brought together.&nbsp; IKEBANA is creative expression within certain rules of construction. Its materials are living branches, leaves, grasses, and blossoms. Its heart is the beauty resulting from color combinations, natural shapes, graceful lines, and the meaning latent in the total form of the arrangement. &nbsp;IKEBANA&#39;s essence and wellspring exists in the human heart before an arrangement appears as form. If one has a beautiful heart, the form of ikebana will also be beautiful. <strong> </strong><br />                   <br />                   <strong>Facilitator: Sadia Saeed</strong><strong> </strong><br />                   <strong>Duration: 9 weeks/two classes a week</strong><br />   <strong> Course  fee: 10,000/-</strong>

STRATEGIC VISIONS<br />               <p>Identifying a clear and meaningful vision is critical towards personal and organizational success and excellence. A life without a clear vision is a life without a direction, a life full of confusions and contradictions. Similarly, many organizations live from crisis to crisis--rudderless ships in turbulent waters-- with their prospects of success and their very existence at stake.</p>               <p>Then there are people with dreams and aspirations that appear surreal in the backdrop of the hustle of real life, of making ends meet and of the struggle to keep pace with the world which refuses to slow down. They often wonder if their dreams would ever move from the realm of fantasy to reality.</p>               <p>This workshop is designed to give you the fundamental paradigms, tools and the language to address this complex yet important subject. This workshop will not only empower you to envision but also set the ground for making your vision a reality both on a personal and an organizational level.<br />                 <br />                 <br />                 <strong>Contents of the Workshop</strong></p>               Technical definitions of the terms vision,   mission, purpose, purpose of the vision, ultimate purpose, strategy and   goals                      <br />                 The seven functions that the visions   provides:                    It gives us   directionHelps us in our day to day   decision makingA clear vision protects us   against the worst case scenarios in lifeGives us motivationHelps us fight   adversityProtects us from becoming a   tool of someone else&rsquo;s undesirable visionHelps us select our   roles                                  The nine dimensions of the vision which we use to articulate, quantify and evaluate visions such as Attainability, Clarity, Complexity and loftiness.<br />                   <br />                 The five personal dimensions which are   pre-requisites for the success of your vision                      <br />                   <br />                 The foundation of the vision on a clearly   defined purpose of the vision (POV)                      <br />                   <br />                 The foundation of the POV on a clearly   defined ultimate purpose of the individual and the organization                      <br />                   <br />                 How to define and articulate ultimate   purpose                      <br />                   <br />                 The yardstick to check the correctness of   the vision                      <br />                   <br />                 Historical case studies to highlight the   functions and dimensions of the vision                      <br />                   <br />                 Introduction to the concept of   excellence                      <br />                   <br />                 Introduction to mandated roles and elective   roles                      <br />                   <br />                 How to systematically select our roles in   the light of the vision                      <br />                   <br />                 The concept of creating a balance in our   roles                      <br />                   <br />                 Linking roles with the vision                        <br />                   <br />                 Framework for developing a hundred year   vision based on the different roles in life                      <br />                   <br />                 Developing short term objectives and   strategy based on this long term vision Show timings: www.timelenders.com<br />

<title>Strategic Negotiation Skills - 5th Workshop</title>

<description><![CDATA[

Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 to Sat, 23 Oct 2010
Duration: 08:00 AM to 05:00 PM
<p>Good negotiation skills are critical to success both at work and                  home. When people enter into a business, a social association                  or a marriage, a process of give and take starts resulting in                  disagreements. Consensus is required. Negotiation skills are the                  foundation of building such consensuses.                </p><p>At work, we negotiate for our salaries, benefits and even vacations;                  as business leaders we negotiate for prices, services and agreements;                  at home we negotiate with our spouse to select schools for our                  kids, to rent an apartment, to buy a car&hellip;</p>               <p>This 18-hour workshop covers the fundamental skills behind effective                  negotiations. We will learn simple rules like &lsquo;negotiate                  on the standards before negotiating on the substance&rsquo;. Similarly,                  we shall learn that we should have an alternative if the negotiation                  were to break down called BATNA (best alternative to a negotiated                  agreement) which empowers you to negotiate better.</p>               <p>We shall see how sometimes it is better to walk away from a negotiation                  than to carry on and how to create a win-win situation in negotiations                  by avoiding win-lose or lose-lose situations.</p>               <p>Lastly, We shall see the Islamic perspective of negotiations                  and how honesty and integrity forms the most important substance                  of effective negotiations and how sometimes we are not only negotiating                  for price but also for our honor and integrity. We shall see the                  importance of keeping the bigger picture in mind. Is it really                  worth getting our way with our wife in buying furniture while                  our relationship is being damaged?</p>                                 October 21 - 23                   Karachi Marriott Hotel, Karachi                   0800 - 1700                   Rs 17,500/-<p>&nbsp;</p><p>For more info: www.timelenders.com <br /></p>

STRATEGIC VISIONS<br />               <p>Identifying a clear and meaningful vision is critical towards personal and organizational success and excellence.

<title>Strategic Negotiation Skills - 6th Workshop</title>
<link>http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=8636</link>
<description><![CDATA[

Duration: 08:00 AM to 05:00 PM
Good negotiation skills are critical to success both at work and                  home. When people enter into a business, a social association                  or a marriage, a process of give and take starts resulting in                  disagreements. Consensus is required. Negotiation skills are the                  foundation of building such consensuses.                <p>At work, we negotiate for our salaries, benefits and even vacations;                  as business leaders we negotiate for prices, services and agreements;                  at home we negotiate with our spouse to select schools for our                  kids, to rent an apartment, to buy a car&hellip;</p>               <p>This 18-hour workshop covers the fundamental skills behind effective                  negotiations. We will learn simple rules like &lsquo;negotiate                  on the standards before negotiating on the substance&rsquo;. Similarly,                  we shall learn that we should have an alternative if the negotiation                  were to break down called BATNA (best alternative to a negotiated                  agreement) which empowers you to negotiate better.</p>               <p>We shall see how sometimes it is better to walk away from a negotiation                  than to carry on and how to create a win-win situation in negotiations                  by avoiding win-lose or lose-lose situations.</p>               <p>Lastly, We shall see the Islamic perspective of negotiations                  and how honesty and integrity forms the most important substance                  of effective negotiations and how sometimes we are not only negotiating                  for price but also for our honor and integrity. We shall see the                  importance of keeping the bigger picture in mind. Is it really                  worth getting our way with our wife in buying furniture while                  our relationship is being damaged?</p>December 09-11                    Karachi Marriott Hotel, Karachi                   0800 - 1700                   Rs 17,500/-<p>For more info: www.timelenders.com <br /></p>
