Rajneeti or Rajya ki Neeti

Last night only I saw the latest bollywood flick named Rajneeti; the story which has been written from the plot of the hindu epic ‘Mahabharta’. It also gives an overview of the much renowned Gandhi family from the pages of Indian Politics.

I could easily relate with the movie because:

1: I had watched the whole series of the epic couple of times; and the characters/story-line was relative to what is shown in the movie.
2: I had read the biography of Indira Gandhi; which clearly shows how as a small kid Indira had attended the political meetings; how she fell in love with her husband, how her sons were killed; in nutshell her journey from a bright student from the family till playing a major role in Indian politics and creating a place of her family to continue the league till today.

As mentioned earlier; the incidents in the movie also clearly shows the rivalry between the second line generation of a high profile political family and how the marriage alliances are made; it would be appropriate if I would say in such kind of atmosphere marriages are not made in heaven; for people like them marriages are just ‘a contract’, ‘a bank balance’, a ‘fund’ for the party, an ‘increased count of number of votes’ and many more.

The movie easily gives us an overview of how a political career can make or break a person; how the fight for chair takes place which stands on the bloodshed of thousands of innocent citizens. There are some characters in the movie which are meant to be the silent killers: the MIND behind the political ball game.

The Indian mythology and Indian politics are two such areas which if studied well can make you a genius in each and every aspect in life.

There are lots many things to learn and follow in life…

Restructure your Corporate Model

This is a common scenario with the corporate houses where the organizational structures are re-aligned for smoother operations in an organization. There are many compromises the Company has to do as per the requirements of the NEW management. One of the challenges faced by them would be studying the work graph of the employees and make them adjust in the new environment and accept the changes. It is said that changes are inevitable but changes should be accepted with open hands by the employees. The companies should come out of the shell of the BIG CORPORATE and should study their own SWOT and act on; the action and the analysis areas may be inside or outside their pre-determined shell. There can be lot many reasons for restructuring…be it less performance, all talks- no work, only work---no talks, no clear goal, no direction, no decision….and many more…everyone needs a change and a better change. With the advent of restructuring in the company the employee would be little skeptical as

FISH Philosophy!!!

Sometime back my colleague gave a presentation on the FISH Philosophy; it is a theory from John Christensen; which was derived by placing cameras in fish market to study the behaviour of workers working actively. As the book suggests, “When we choose to love the work we do, we can catch our limit of happiness, meaning and fulfillment every day.” The study shows how 75% of normal human life is consumed in work related areas as going to office, spending time in working and other such meagre activities and by the time Friday appears everyone sighs and says “Thank God its Friday” and gives their 100% of the energy. The promoters and writer proudly shares that this book will benefit the managers which will indeed increase employee retention and motivate people to take pride in what they do; so it says no work is small you should perform your duties with pride and enthusiasm. The story is a parable; an invented story about finding the deep source of energy, creativity and passion that exists

Building Bully- Free Workplace

In the dynamic realm of the workplace, collaboration and teamwork are crucial for success. However, sometimes this spirit of cooperation takes a dark turn when employees gang up against one particular team member. During a recent one-on-one session with a team member, I came to realize the immense importance of understanding and practicing concepts like empathy, sympathy, privacy, and secrecy. These terms may be interconnected, but they each hold their own significance. It is disheartening to witness team members struggling to fit into the competitive nature of the workplace. Do they not have their own individuality and unique perspectives? Should they not possess their own strong will? Numerous questions arise in light of this. Why do people gang up against a particular team member? Why do they feel entitled to delve into their personal issues? Can't they control their curiosity and focus on their own responsibilities? Why make fun of someone who is already going through emotional
