| Gregynog Residential and Day Conference Centre |
|
|
Gregynog Hall is the Conference Centre in Wales. It is located in the middle of the picturesque Welsh countryside, surrounded by the proverbial hills and the valleys. Every semester, senior Masters and Bachelors students of Management make a trip to this wonderful location. In this 72-acre expanse of greenery, cut off from the rest of civilization, the students are put to the test in various skills and aspects of business and management. Workshops, role plays, group discussions, management games, outdoor exercises and the like are all packed into two days, making this an event that is not only a learning experience, but also provides students with a lot of fun too.
Students are divided into groups and they are exposed to skills such as team work, creativity, corporate presentations, time management, leadership, problem solving, negotiation, etc. These events provide students with a practical approach to learning which is very different from the methodology adopted in a classroom environment. Students learn through actions and by being faced with real life problems and managing available limited resources. The programme provides them with an opportunity to bond with other students and make new friends. It also enables them to visit another part of the United Kingdom and see new places.
The most important issue is that this management development programme is completely free for all SBL students, with all costs being borne by the School. It also provides variety in the teaching methodology and has a huge practical slant. There is further variety when the night falls, the Music Room at the Hall is opened up to a DJ. The students take a welcome break from the tight schedules of the day to let their hair down and boogie on the dance floor.
In short, Gregynog is a place not to be missed and an event that is guaranteed to create an indelible mark in the minds of the students.
