What is the purpose of business? How does a leader contribute to the purpose of the organization? These are two very critical questions and the answers are not easy. How narrow or broad the purpose of the leader is, equally narrow or broad is the purpose of the organization which he/she leads. Helene Ploix, CMD, Pechel Industries and Pechel Industries Partenaires, France says, “I think the purpose of the business is to create wealth to the company and to create wealth for a larger number of people without harming the others. This should not be done just for yourself or for a few others, such as managers or owners. I think that the purpose of my own organization and for business in general is creating wealth for the largest number of people-to contribute.” An organization is nothing but a group of people with defined roles and structures. To bring out the peak potential of the organization, the peak potential of each individual member of the organization must be harnessed. If the ...

"Blogging is like Sex. You can't fake it. You can't fake passion. You can't fake wanting to engage with public." Kevin Anderson.   In last week of December 2010, I started my Blog “The Joys of Teaching” and posted one article only in 2010. The series initially began with my experiences as a teacher. Later on I added some posts on life skills which I found lacking in few of my students. The Blog has 200 posts now, which make it an average of 20 Blogs per month (five per week including guest blogs). I became a teacher due to my passion for teaching and the blog only reflected my passion. For the first 3 months I wrote all the posts but connected extensively on Linkedin internationally. Slowly well known people from all corners of the world, started showing interest in submitting guest posts. I may have personally moved towards the joys of coaching and consulting but the blog shall always remain my first love, the joys of teaching. Then I started with a serie...

Dedicated to my musical friend Michael Thallium, Global & Greatness Coach, Spain I must have been born with music inside me from day one. The moment I would hear music, it would either make me dance or would stir my soul. Some of my life’s most beautiful memories have a musical connection. My maternal uncle introduced me to the world of English and other international music in childhood. I learnt it early that music is beyond language. So my favourite songs included a Bengali song, Ricky Martin (Ale, Ale, Ale), a load of The Beatles, Urdu ghazals, Turkish instrumentals, besides Hindi songs of course. I loved Turkish instrumental cassette my childhood friend Amit Gupta brought from Libya. It was so soothing I would often play it while having meals. Music has given me company in the intense moments of loneliness; music has been a friend, philosopher and guide. Two years back I got the courage to publicly sing on stage (thou...

The post is a personal story of how i discovered my deepest passion.

"Only by much searching and mining are gold and diamonds obtained, and man can find every truth connected with his being if he will dig deep into the mine of his soul." ~  James Allen,  As a Man Thinketh Source: Uploaded by user via Dr on Pinterest

Source: Uploaded by user via Dr on Pinterest Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. - Albert Einstein   The mind consists of two parts viz conscious and subconscious (Freud calls it unconscious). To make it simple to understand we shall use the terms ‘noisy mind’ for conscious mind and ‘silent mind’ for subconscious mind. It is important to quieten the noisy mind to tap the wisdom and intuitive capabilities of the silent mind (you can call it soul, if you are spiritually inclined). Noisy mind is cluttered and hence confuses us and often ends up taking wrong decisions under stress. The silent mind is clear and comes up with perfect decisions. The more we exercise our silent mind, the faster decision making it can do. We need to have strong intention of what we wish to do (or decision we wish to make) and then leave it to the silent mind to come up with answers at its own...

‘Two perspectives’ is a monthly column with two different perspectives from two different continents, genders and cultures on the same topic viz.  from Janet Smith Warfield (based in Florida, USA) and  Dr Amit Nagpal (based in New Delhi, India). Janet's Perspective Patriarchal systems are breaking down. Top down Communism no longer works. Top down democracy, bought by top down corporations, no longer works. Monarchies and dictatorships are being challenged and overthrown. Women are waking up and starting to think for themselves. Women are no longer willing to accept the roles into which men have placed them: sex object, subservient wife, mother, cook, housekeeper, babysitter. Women are no longer willing to sit idly by and watch their husbands and sons be slaughtered by other womens' husbands and sons. As women take back their power, men are waking up, too. They are beginning to respect the awesome female collaborative and cooperative power that can lead ou...

You Are Stuck. You Want Help. Yet, 'Are You Coachable?' A Guest Post on Coachability by Rory Kelly Connor Recently, I was contacted via email for coaching support by a woman (let’s call her Sue) stuck in a job she loathed. Working for an international corporation with numerous locations and subsidiaries, Sue had moved around within the corporate framework, most recently taking a position out-of-state that required her to commute home on weekends. The new position was achingly dull and provided none of the career opportunities and challenges she longed to tackle. Combined with the bi-state living situation, her pain level was almost at the breaking point. Sue was stuck and needed help. As is protocol, I scheduled a time to speak with Sue directly by Skype/phone during the following week. I also sent her a short list of questions to answer which would help provide more information for that discussion. I also asked that she send me ...

Japan & India-Personal Branding Across Two Cultures Japan and India is a bi-monthly series on personal branding perspectives from Japan (Peter Sterlacci) and India (Dr Amit Nagpal) Peter Sterlacci-Japanese Angle If you ask Japanese if they have heard of "personal branding," 99% of the time they will not know. Personal branding is simply not part of Japanese culture and so naturally people are not aware of it. When I explain what it is, I almost inevitably get a '2-part reaction'.     Part 1: "That sounds really interesting and Japanese people need to do this."     Part 2: "But, because we are Japanese maybe we cannot do it because...." What usually follows the 'because' is one of a handful of myths about personal branding. Here are 4 of the most common myths and how I debunk them. Myth 1: "I have to give up my group identity." This myth comes from Japanese being educated to be self-effacing and...

"I have Stayed Hungry, Foolish and Crazy" Very often in our life, we do not realize how deeply someone has impacted our life, till the person is no more. No wonder they say that a man’s worth is known after his death. Today as I came to know about Steve Job’s passing away many of his quotes flashed through my mind. I suddenly realized how strongly Steve has inspired me, how interwoven Steve’s quotes have been in my writings and how, many of Steve’s quotes had given me the courage to take huge risks in life. Some people spend years with you, become your role models and provide encouragement face to face. This is quite understandable and the bonds have a logic and explanation. But some people who you never met, can touch your life so miraculously is something beyond explanation. The second highest readership of my Blog comes from USA after India and the second highest source of my inspirations also comes from US after India. I never wanted to settle in USA but I ha...
