Role and Responsibilities of an In-Charge

Question:

Discuss about the effect of internship for the future development of the carrier.
 

This particular assignment has provided an extensive knowledge and deep insight about my experience while working with the organization. From ten weekly learning journal entries, I have chosen week seven. An extravagant wedding had been celebrated on 15^th march of 2016. I was playing in the role of an in-charge. In this particular study, I would like to highlight my role, responsibilities, learning experience, scopes of learning and so many. While executing my job inside the wedding event I had to face immense difficulties to control the entire event. Therefore, I had learnt from my coordinator how to overcome various challenges skillfully.

I had been appointed for the post of in charge on the wedding ceremony of Amy and Cesur. This particular job is completely related to the event management. I had to play a big responsibility to take care of the event decoration in an organized way. The entrance of bride and grooms were decorated an incredible manner. I had to treat the guest carefully. By maintaining an effective communication with them, I convinced the guests to have their own seats instead of blocking the brides’ entrance. Besides, I had to play a key role to cooperate the photographers as well. While taking a good snap with the bride and grooms, photographers as well as the videographers had to face immense challenges (Cameron and Green 2015). My role as an in-charge was to manage the entire situation skillfully so that the entire event could be conducted systematically.

Elsbach (2014) stated that the role of an in change of a wedding event is very delicate as the success of the event is entirely dependent on the managing skill of the in-charge. I personally felt the same while executing my job at the workplace. On the contrary, it has been highlighted that after achieving the business goal the event in-charge has been highlighted first among the entire team members. Therefore, I have realized that an in charge has to play a major role in order to deal with the wedding members effectively.

I have gone through a blended experience while working as an in charge of the wedding ceremony of Amy and Cesur. While interacting with the guests properly I had to face immense difficulties. People have entered into the ceremony from various culture and background. Therefore, it was definitely challenging for me to communicate with them properly. Linguistic barrier was one of the major factors that prevented an effective communication with the guests. I had tried my best to apply both kinds of communication including verbal and non-verbal. The people who had to face verbal communication barriers, I liked to use my expression and body language in order to communicate those people.

Apart from the communication barriers, I faced numerous difficulties while treating with the photographers, celebrities, other guests of bride and groom and so many. In addition, I had to keep a constant control on the service procedure as well. As per my instruction, the service providers intended to keep themselves alerts in order to provide an effective service to the guests. As a whole, this internship has remained a memorable learning experience in my life. 

Challenges Faced and Opportunities for Learning

Rationale of my action

While dealing with the post of an in-charge I had to take many immediate actions. For an example, in order to deal with the people of different culture and attitude I had to learn non-verbal communication method. In addition, amidst the extravagant gathering of a wedding ceremony I had gave the photographers immense space to take necessary snaps of bride and groom. 

As per my point of view, people have definitely faced a positive consequence after taking my relevant actions against a particular situation. Videographers as well as the photographers have achieved immense opportunity to execute their job perfectly. Guests have achieved a warm treatment on behalf of the coordinator. The entire event has been conducted systematically. As per my point of view, role and responsibility of an in charge should be executed properly in order to get a positive outcome.   

While conducting my role and responsibility I had to overcome numerous dwindling situations in order to execute the job systematically. I had observed that a large number of guests had turned up to attend the wedding ceremony. Due to the limited space, my team members could not arrange available seat capacity for the guests. As a result, I had to face an embarrassing moment after the huge gathering at a time. Some of them had to spend their time by standing in the place. Therefore, this particular thing was not going right at all. Otherwise, the communication with the invitees, the way of arranging every aspects, decoration were commendable by others. 

However, it is undeniable that the entire journey was a tremendous learning experience for me. I was quite introvert in nature. After appointing in this particular post, I have come to know how to maintain an effective communication with others. Communication is one of the most important factors for the success of any kind of business process. Apart from that, I have come across people of different attitudes. I also got an opportunity to learn their culture, values and beliefs.

Before joining in the professional fields I dint not have any knowledge how to maintain professionalism inside a workplace. After doing the internship I have come to know the meaning of professionalism. Maintaining an effective communication with the clients is a part of my job. In addition, I have improved my skill and competency fervently after being appointed in the position of in charge. These particular experiences would help me to enhance my carrier in future. I would be able to control the entire business process more skillfully. 

Holding the position of an in charge in a wedding ceremony is out an out a responsible job. In order to justify my dignity and position I had to change my personal gesture and style. Going beyond my introvert attitude, I had to learn how to make an effective communication with my clients to fulfill their needs and demands. In addition, I have learnt the style of approaching an opportunity or a proposal towards clients.

However, these approaches would help to build my career definitely. While conducting an event I have used different kinds of methods to deal with a client effectively. The approaches include direct approach method, face-to-face method, personal selling approach and so many. Among the three approaches, international method would help to develop my future carrier first. With the help of this particular approach, I would be able to get an immediate feedback from the clients. Based on the feedback I would get the scope to develop my ability and skill.

I personally believe that future interns should get an effective training before handling such kind of dignified position. In charge is the centre of an event management team. This particular individual has to keep a constant control over the entire process of business. Therefore, before handing this position, the person has to be skilful and competent enough to handle every kind of situation. An in change should have the capacity to accept any immediate pressure. Executing the job amidst immense pressure is the ideal responsibility of a dignified person. Therefore, an individual fresher has to face immense trouble to deal with variable circumstances at the very first stage. Therefore, training is highly needed to make a fresher efficient in terms of experience and competency.

As per my expectation, I have gained immense opportunity to expose my skill and competency. After appointing me for the post of in charge in a wedding event, I have come across numerous innovative experiences that I can apply even in my future. As per my point of view of industry, it can provide better placement even. On the contrary, It can be stated that place is least important. At the very first, an individual should have to think whether this person would be able to handle any sudden crisis or not. I am not exceptional to that. I have come across innumerable challenges while dealing with the clients at the wedding ceremony event. 

Conclusion

This particular study has provided detailed overview about the effect of internship for the future development of the carrier. I had been appointed for the post of an in-charge of a wedding event. Therefore, I have expressed my feeling and experience while dealing with the people of different culture and attitude at the workplace. Various positive and negative aspects of arranging an event have also been highlighted here.
