When you hold people’s destiny in your hands, it is easy to get carried away. The heady rush of power, the feeling of supremacy fuelled by the fact that sometimes your subordinates only tell you what they think you want to hear, can often lead you astray.
A real life story as told to me by one of my friends:
Some of the most successful people I had the privilege of meeting in my career had one thing in common - they enjoyed what they were doing. If you love what you are doing, there is very little that can hold you back in life. Look at anyone you think is very successful in his or her field and you will find that these are people who not only identify with what they are doing but also revel in it.
In a recently released video by TVF, the makers envision a situation where the parents of employees are called upon to have a meeting with the HR manager. Taking the parents-teacher meeting to the next level, the video essentially captures how far can parents go, to see their ward succeed, not only in school and academics but also in life.
Here’s presenting a bittersweet account of a b-school relationship must-knows that only b-school junta can relate to.
Getting out of your home and facing the world alone is something that seemed very exciting, the need to be independent is just too strong to hold a girl in her home city. So when she got a chance to do just that, she grabbed it with both her hands. No long would she miss all the fun because she lived far away from home. No longer would she be left out.
A while ago, I was sitting at the popular peace point/suicide point of my college (IIMK) and was contemplating the future. I was imagining what it would be like, ten years from now in terms of my career, my personal life and then, I looked around myself and started imagining what the institute would become in another ten years. Will it reach altogether a new pinnacle and achieve a glory un-paralleled in its history or will it just fade away as one of the many IIMs in the country? Taking my thoughts further in this direction, I began my quest on a journey to quench myself with an answer for this puzzle eluding me.
