South Point High School, in collaboration with the South Point Ex-Students' Association (ASPEXS), recently organized an engaging edition of its "Pointer Connect: Guest Speaker Session" at the school's seminar hall. The event saw students from Classes XI and XII Commerce interact with distinguished alumnus Sriram Mahadevan, a member of the Madhyamik Batch of 1986. Mahadevan returned to his alma mater to share insights from his professional journey spanning over three decades.
Key Topics Discussed
During the interactive session, Mahadevan addressed students on several critical themes, including leadership, business development, strategic growth, and the importance of adaptability in today's ever-evolving corporate landscape. He emphasized how continuous learning, discipline, and openness to diverse experiences shaped his career path. The session provided students with a valuable opportunity to connect classroom learning with practical industry insights.
Reflections and Advice
Mahadevan reflected on his days at the school and encouraged students to remain curious and resilient. He highlighted the value of making informed career choices while staying grounded in strong personal and professional ethics. "We are incredibly proud to welcome back one of our own to inspire the next generation of students. Hearing directly from someone who once sat in these very classrooms makes the aspirations of our students feel far more real and achievable," said Meghnath Roy Chowdhury, Honorary Secretary of ASPEXS.
The session concluded with a lively Q&A round, where students actively engaged with the alumnus, seeking advice on career planning and skill development. The event was widely appreciated by both students and faculty for its motivational impact and practical relevance.
