Tejasvita Medhavi is currently pursuing her Masters in Human Resources Management and Labour Relations from TISS, Mumbai. She was chosen as part of the coveted Hindustan Unilever Changemakers Program for 2023 cohort. She completed her graduation in psychology from the University of Delhi. She has a diverse range of interests and was President of the Film Society in her college. In her free time, she likes to read, listen to music, and persevere for the greater good.
Tejasvita Medhavi approaches problem-solving by identifying potential causes and prioritizing alternatives based on their suitability to the context. In an internship dealing with bullying and emotions among 9-10-year-olds, she opted for a rapport-building session and a screening of a short movie on bullying. This approach allowed students to better relate to their experiences, making the subsequent discussion more impactful.
Handling failure or setbacks involves viewing them with detachment, drawing lessons constructively, and maintaining a sense of self-efficacy. Tejasvita shares a personal anecdote from her 12th boards, where she faced challenges in scoring well in Physics. Despite initial struggles, her perseverance and hard work led to a remarkable improvement in her Physics score, securing admission to the University of Delhi.
In a workplace ethics scenario, Tejasvita faced a request for the student database for a society event, conflicting with their policy against sharing credentials. After discussions and negotiations with faculty coordinators, a consensus was reached. The society ensured information sharing only with students' consent after proper debriefing.
Describing a negotiation situation for a society event, Tejasvita outlines challenges related to student engagement and attendance. Strategies included implementing a 'bring a friend to the screening' policy, extensive promotion, and pre-event engagement with students to facilitate post-screening discussions.
Tejasvita believes she deserves to be one of India's Most Promising Incoming MBA Students 2023 due to her versatility, academic excellence, and leadership in extracurricular activities. She graduated with the second rank in BA (Hons) Psychology, excelled in case challenges, and held leadership roles in the film society and placement cell, showcasing her ability to multitask and contribute significantly to various domains.
