I am having a great experience at PILS and as time goes by, I am learning new things. Through the internship, I understand how the organization works and how theories learnt in classes are reflected in real life events.
Good internal relationships:
A must!
For an organization to operate well, the relation among the employer and
the employees and among the employees themselves are essential factors. Through
my experience, I noticed to what extent a good relationship among people
working within the same organization is important and the impact it has on the
motivation to produce good work. As an intern, seeing this kind of friendly
atmosphere contributed to make my adaptation smoother and not being afraid to
ask questions. This proximity and good relationship among the employees allow
them to approach their colleagues to discuss about an idea or only to have
their opinion about something. The relationship reflected that they value
employees and made them feel useful. The good employment relationship promotes
productivity, motivation, no superiority among the employees and reduce conflicts.
Multi-talented
I learned that I cannot afford having only my PR knowledge to be able to
cope with the work but I should be able to know how to do other things and also,
if needed, do them simultaneously. While changing department, one day I was at
the reception and I needed to answer calls. I was also working on an article and
at first, it was disturbing because I could not concentrate on my article.
Afterwards, I realized that to cope with the tasks, I should be able to do several
work at the same time, maintain a good concentration and have a proper time
management. It was difficult at the start, but I managed after a while.
Be positive!
To work within a communication department, it is not that easy, but I believed
that with practice and as soon as the good rhythm of working is obtained,
things will be good. These days working at this NGO has helped me to understand
the importance of internal relationships within an organization since I have
been able to experience it in real life and also how crucial it is to do
several things at the same time. To fulfill the required tasks, keeping a
positive attitude in every situation is the key to success. I have found some
useful links about good internal relationships which can help you understand
more about internal relationships and how it is important for an organization.
Thank you for taking time to read my post.

Hello Gaelle, I am pleased to note and see your personal growth within the organisation. I am happy to see that you have learnt a lot of useful things during your intership that will later it will be handy. It even happened with me that I got the opportunity to do some petty tasks in some department such as the Human Resource while you were at the reception and had to attend calls. It is really nice to share these experiences. Agree with you that internal communication is very important in an organisation so that you can feel at ease since Day 1. Fortunately I met two other interns during my palcement and I was very happy and relaxed after meeting them. Friendly atmosphere helps you to develop your skills. I was always hesitant to talk to people but with time I had to adapt myself. Thank You very much for these links that you have shared with us. I really wish you good luck and good health.
Hi Hans,
Yes, doing these little tasks are interesting and help us to learn new things. If you have met people who helped you to be more at ease, we both know that feeling of relief then.
I think that it must be like that for many of us, where talking to people for the first time is quite hard but later on, it becomes easy.
Thank you for according time to my blog and my experience.
Thanks you, Good luck and good health too.
