Business Administration Club – What Should Students Do to “Awaken Confidence”?.

At 7:15 p.m. on 1 October 2021, the Business Administration Club – Faculty of Business Administration - International Economics organized a meeting and exchange session for students with the theme: “AWAKEN CONFIDENCE.”

Attending the sharing session were:

PhD Nguyen Van Tan – Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration - International Economics
PhD Nguyen Van Dung – Head of the Business Administration Division
MB Ta Thi Thanh Huong – Head of the Strategic and E-Commerce Division; Club Advisor
Along with lecturers, staff members, and 150 students of the Faculty of Business Administration - International Economics.

In particular, the event featured the guest speaker:

Mr Truong Ba Manh Long – Director of Ba Long Event Organization Company, alumnus of the Faculty of Business Administration - International Economics.

The sharing session lasted for two hours in an online format, during which the content was conveyed to students, raising questions such as whether confidence is truly important for individuals and whether it is essential for overcoming personal barriers and limitations. For students, confidence in presentation skills, public speaking, acknowledging limitations, promoting personal strengths, speaking boldly, and demonstrating appropriate verbal and non-verbal communication are key factors that require practice and development from the present time.

“Awaken Confidence”

Each individual possesses inner strength, also known as internal power—a force far greater than we often realize. Ideally, as we grow, we would increasingly explore and cultivate this invisible strength. However, for various reasons, people sometimes forget it. The level of your internal power depends on barriers arising from life experiences. These may include childhood traumas, experiences one wishes to forget, or present-life emotional wounds. Gradually, confidence diminishes as these barriers obscure the inherent strength within, preventing you from recognizing the “gifts” bestowed upon you from birth. Why, then, is confidence important for each individual?

Confidence enables you to believe in yourself, in what you consider right, and to acknowledge your inherent abilities. Accepting your self-worth allows you to hold your head high naturally—not with arrogance, but with self-respect and pride in who you are. Confidence frees you from doubt, hesitation, and anxiety when making decisions.

The more confident you are, the more easily you accept both your strengths and weaknesses. Understanding that no one is perfect, you become willing to learn, listen, and process information to achieve the best possible outcomes for yourself.

Confidence also provides energy and motivation to take action. You believe you can achieve what you desire if you truly make the effort. Fear is necessary to propel you forward, helping you overcome personal limitations. Nothing worthwhile is achieved easily; if it were easy, it would hold little value. Do not assume that confidence distances you from others. Confident individuals with strong inner power often create a sense of comfort for those around them. Their “charisma” radiates from happiness and self-contentment.

Through today’s sharing session, students have surely gained a clearer understanding of what confidence is, how to awaken it within themselves, and have acquired valuable experiences and essential skills applicable to their studies, careers, and future lives.

The meeting concluded at 9:30 p.m. on the same day, promising future sessions with meaningful and engaging topics for all students.
