Master in Management of Organizational Development at LUT University (Letter of Motivation)

 Here is the statement of Purpose I wrote for this Master's program from Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology. This letter landed me to round two. In  2nd round, they asked questions similar to the topic we wrote in these preliminary letters of intent, like why are you interested in this program? What do we plan to do after completing Master? How are these studies particularly related to our background? But in round 2, we are required to answer in a recorded video.

I hereby wish to describe my keen interest in a place in the master’s program in Management of Organisational Development at LUT University.

The main reason I have chosen this master program is to develop my career and pursue post graduate education in field of management and engineering with an excellent scholar who can practice international standards in the domain. As a Professional Engineer with working experience of approximately 10 years in variety of industries, and have seen and gone through a lot of technological, system and processes changes and while living in Saudi Arabia now even experiencing the much needed societal change so now it’s time for me to get a professional degree which enables my understanding in a more advance way to manage change. I find that this is essential for development of any country & organization especially if both lacks the human resource in this sector which I believe is hindering the success of key development on organizational and even country level.

The world is changing rapidly because of the use of Robotics, automation and Artificial intelligence in every walk of life and has inaugurated numerous projects in different sectors (Power, Green Energy, Construction, Infrastructure etc.) for economic well-being. Most of these projects involve very advanced technology-based features and functions. Hundreds of projects are being implemented while many are in planning and surveying stages. Beneficiaries believe in the spectacular outcome that is described, but all these projects being implemented across the world will be useless and if they are not analyzed and managed in a systematic way. The number of such professionals who have multidisciplinary approach and systematic vision to bring this change for organizational development are not enough and will be in demand.

During the COVID Pandemic, the world has seen a drastic change in its almost every form, from working remotely to online shopping, online education and far many contact less practices, as a working professional, I myself have experienced the environment of running businesses remotely. It is then, when I felt the need of managing change for better and safe future is required.

They say, “change is the only constant” and we are seeing the exponential change at a very rapid pace as we entered the era of 4th industrial revolution. With the advent of AI and machine learning, now is the high time to must have knowledge of leadership roles and practices that will allow one to handle the complexity of human-centric organizations and networks. Therefore, graduating from this program will always help me to secure a job and boost my career and enlighten many visions to the bright future.

I am currently working in Saudi Arabia which is witnessing socio-economic shift and my motivation to this specific course is, to understand such multi-level changes from one socio-technical system to another, involving co-evolution of technological and societal factors. I have chosen LUT university because this specific course along with this structure is not being offered by any other institute, other than this the reputation of LUT in both technological and business professional course is recognized internationally.

Bearing in mind what, on the one hand, my interests, prospects and qualifications are, and what, on the other hand your postgraduate study program offers, I am very enthusiastic and eager to undertake this challenge.

Thank you very much for considering my request and I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ

so I was wrong being Judge(mental) WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND The Qur'an refutes the doctrine that certain consequences necessarily follow from sins and that man must in all cases bear them. In fact this is one of the most misleading doctrines to have been invented by human imagination. If it were true it would mean that a sinner would never have the opportunity to have his repentance accepted. It is a mechanistic view of reward and punishment and thus prevents and discourages the sinner from trying to improve. The Qur'an, on the contrary, tells man that reward for good actions and punishment for bad ones rests entirely with God. Malik-e-Youm-ud-Deen Fateha:3 ‘Master of the day of Judgment’ The reward that one receives for good acts is not the natural consequence of those acts; it is rather due to the grace and benevolence of God and it is entirely up to Him to reward one or not. Likewise, punishment for evil deeds is not a natural and unalterable consequence of man...

Paradise and Hell

Today I heard a very new and fascinating belief, at least as far as I am concerned, about Paradise (Jannah) and hell (Dozakh). When in morning I went downstairs in my office to made a complaint about my home landline phone, two technicians were sitting. I heard while trying to make complaint (since PTCL central customer care office walas don’t pick phone that easily), one was addressing other one about what hell and paradise really are. I wanted to share it in urdu جنّت اور دوزخ دو چٹیل میدان ہیں. ہم خود وہاں رہنے کے لئے اپنا سامان اکھٹا کرتے ہیں. مثال کے طور پر جب ہم سبحان الله کہتے ہیں تو وہاں اک درخت لگتا ہے اور جب ہم دوبارہ سبحان الله کہتے ہیں تو وہاں دوسرا درخت لگ جاتا ہے ور اس طرح وہاں باغ بنتا جاتا ہے، جب کے اس کے برعکس جب ہم کسی کو گالی دیتے ہیں تو وہاں اپنے لئے اک چولہے میں آگ بھڑکاتے ہیں اور جب ہم ایسا کرتے رہتے ہیں تو پوری دوزخ ہمارے لئے تیار ہو جاتی ہے Paradise and hell are two big grounds in the world hereafter. We ourselves collect the things to pass our lives there...
