Reading is mundane…

I am sure there would innumerable people who would agree with this. Being a voracious reader, I found it difficult to understand how could people live without reading…Until this question brought me to observing and talking to people about why they wouldn’t want to read.

Communicating change in technology

Although change is essential, it is equally unwelcomed. Introducing changes in an organisation, especially upgrading technology is a rather daunting task. General reactions are uproar, in-acceptance, or even worse: cold shoulders.

Bending the healthcare cost curve

Discussions related to reducing the healthcare cost while ensuring access to quality healthcare; are flooding many discussion spaces. The rising healthcare costs in India and poor status of public health system in the country are distancing common people from effective healthcare.

Networking

Networking could be one of the strongest tool to create an identity for yourself. Identity based on your personality, work and experience.  A window to many cultures and experiences, which was impossible in the good olden days. I intend to share some gathered thoughts on using online media for networking:

Communication

Few things I learnt about communication

1. Golden rule – never respond when you are angry, never commit when you are happy
2. If communication goes wrong, accept the mistake and move on
3. No matter what is the position of the other person never feel small
4. Be sure of what you talk
5. Be open to others ideas
6. Respect the culture and the feelings of the other person. A greeting in the language of the opposite person never harms
7. Never forget to convey your regards to the family, if you know the person personally
8. Treat the person in the same manner you would like to be treated
9. Thanks and sorry are words said when you feel, never intend to demean these very useful and meaningful words.
