The legend of Indian History -I


Hello friend,
Today in my office few peoples are talking about the holiday on 2nd October. On 2nd October our office will be off due to national holiday, We will going to celebrate the birthday of our national father(RastraPitha) Mahatma Gandhi.
Now what is my point that the guys remember the Birth Day of mahatma Gandhi because it will be holiday on that day, but no one of them know that today is birthday of Bhagat Singh The legend in Indian history. Even I ask my colleague and most of them answer that Bhagat Singh is one of their ideal. So you remember the person only if there will be a national holiday only. Bhagat Singh was a great leader. Once he decided to live for the country its his immense power that he martyr  in his early age. He was one of the best manager who lead a small troop but achieve what he wanted.

Live Happily Attract customers

Hi friends,
Today I got a lesson which I would like to share with you. Saturday I have half working day in the office,so before leaving office I call one of my friend Arvind so that we can spent some time, as its long to meet college friends.
As he is doing his own business he has some work in the market, he need some goods to supply to his customers, that was part used in big machines.He caught me from the office . Both of us were in big market. He went to one of the shop and inquired for his needs. The man at the shop greeted us with a long smile ask us to sit as the authorize person was not present in office. He was a nice man ask Arvind about his business also where is the last person who generally used to come to their office and many other things with Arvind. I was enjoying the session, for a single moment I didn't feel bore there.We both enjoy talking to him rather he was busy with his big ledger. After few minutes completing the inquiries we moved to anther shop.
The shop was big and the mentor over there was an electrical engineer indulge  into the business from very long time. He behaved very rudely. He was even not looking interested in the inquires though he know that Arvind is his regular customer, we spend around half an hour on the shop for getting our requirements. I was feeling bore at the office there, so I made myself busy in reading newspaper.
Suddenly, my concentration breaks I saw that the boss was shouting on his employees. See what image his customer make in their mind at that time.
  • The person was very rude.
  • He was dominating kind of person.
More ever, me and Arvind conclude that he was frustrating kind of person even Arvind said to me that from very next time he will try to avoid to come back on the same office instead he will try to deal with the forst person we meet more.

So what is my point that always present yourself happy in front of your customers. Respect them, try to involve in their business, for this sentence I mean talk to them about their business. Let realize them that you are really interested in them as well as you cares about their sales and their business.

Try to not let them know that you are under pressure instead present your self cool and calm in front of them.

Learn managment from a ticket collector

Hi guys today I would like to share an experience of my daily traveling. Daily I used to travel by a local bus to reach my office. From last five months daily I used to go in the same bus. Five months back there were two person who are handling the bus.A ticket collector and his assistant I used to call ticket collector (Prem) as a manager and the other one bus cleaner (Kanhiya) as assistant manager. So guys when I started traveling in the bus then the bus was full with the passangers I daily used to struggle to went in the same bus.Initially all goes very smooth with the manager. They earn very well profit in the morning trip as it is usual time people leaves home and travel for there work.
Now after few days I found that there were dispute started between Prem and Kanhiya. Kanhiya is now having a lil bit experience as he was working from last 8 months. He now started his own strategies which Prem don't like.
One day prem decided to leave his job as he finding difficulties workin with kanhiya he talked to his boss as now boss having another employ (Kanhiya) So he let Prem to go from his job. Now kanhiya stated working with his own system. He do not use to fill the diesel in the bus at the proper time. He don't take care of the bus.

I stopped to go in this bus as my office time was changed. Again after few days my time is again changed and I stared to go office by the same bus.

After few days I found that there is less traffic in the bus. I ask the reason then the assitant manager(Kanhiya) who is now a manager replied me that these days people usually do not travelling frequently. I said yes you are right. but in few days I found that the bus was not reaching the destination at the proper time also Kanhiya was very rude with the clients(passangers).

AHHH…. I got now why I do not found the rush in the bus.

One day Kanhiya ask me to change the bus because he is leaving his job from the current bus and will work on the another bus which comes next to the current one.

I said OK.

Now I started travelling by another bus.

After few days I catch my old bus and I was shocked because there is big rush in the bus. Bus was full of passengers. I took the ticket and the ticket collector was the same person (Prem). Now daily I found the same crowd in the bus.Now the bus reaches the destination at correct time which was the main priority of many of the client who used to travel because they have to reach office at right time.


So, guys its not the traffic which makes the boss in the profit but it was the managerial skill of Prem because of whom the passenger(clients) used to travel in the his bus.
Here I got the lesson that use your right skills to handle the client provide them what they need as in the above case TIME was the first priority. Present your pleasant personality in front of the client.

Here's I learn management skill from the ticket collector.

Time Management

Hi friends,
Today I recieaved a email which said :
Sent by Mr. Narayan Murthy to his employs. Here’s the mail is:

It's half past 8 in the office but the lights are still on...
PCs still running, coffee machines still buzzing...
And who's at work? Most of them ??? Take a closer look...
All or most specimens are ??
Something male species of the human race...
Look closer... again all or most of them are bachelors...
And why are they sitting late? Working hard? No way!!!
Any guesses???
Let's ask one of them...
Here's what he says.... "What's there 2 do after going home...Here we get to surf, AC, phone, food, coffee that is why I am working late...Importantly no bossssssss!!!!!!!!!!!"
This is the scene in most research centers and software companies and other off-shore offices.
Bachelors "Time-passing" during late hours in the office just bcoz they say they've nothing else to do...
Now what r the consequences...

"Working" (for the record only) late hours soon becomes part of the institute or company culture.

With bosses more than eager to provide support to those "working" late in the form of taxi vouchers, food vouchers and of course good feedback, (oh, he's a hard worker... goes home only to change..!!).
They aren't helping things too...
To hell with bosses who don't understand the difference between "sitting" late and "working" late!!!
Very soon, the boss start expecting all employees to put in extra working hours.
So, My dear Bachelors let me tell you, life changes when u get married and start having a family... office is no longer a priority, family is... and
That's when the problem starts... b'coz u start having commitments at home too.
For your boss, the earlier "hardworking" guy suddenly seems to become a "early leaver" even if u leave an hour after regular time... after doing the same amount of work.
People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labelled as work-shirkers...
Girls who thankfully always (its changing nowadays... though) leave on time are labelled as "not up to it". All the while, the bachelors pat their own backs and carry on "working" not realizing that they r spoiling the work culture at their own place and never realize that they would have to regret at one point of time..
So what's the moral of the story??
* Very clear, LEAVE ON TIME!!!
* Never put in extra time " unless really needed "
* Don't stay back unnecessarily and spoil your company work culture which will in turn cause inconvenience to you and your colleagues.
There are hundred other things to do in the evening..
Learn music...
Learn a foreign language...
Try a sport... TT, cricket.........

Importantly,get a girl friend or boy friend, take him/her around town...
* And for heaven's sake, net cafe rates have dropped to an all-time low (plus, no fire-walls) and try cooking for a change.
Take a tip from the Smirnoff ad: *"Life's calling, where are you??"*
Please pass on this message to all those colleagues and please do it before leaving time, don't stay back till midnight to forward this!!!
IT'S A TYPICAL INDIAN MENTALITY THAT WORKING FOR LONG HOURS MEANS VERY HARD WORKING & 100% COMMITMENT ETC.
PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY SIT LATE IN THE OFFICE DON'T KNOW TO MANAGE THEIR TIME. SIMPLE !
Regards,
NARAYAN MURTHY.
I am not sure the mail is written by him but If the mail is written by him, then he is absolutely correct. I also seen that people in my office used to sit upto 11:00 PM. It makes me irritate, because until the senior don’t leave. I also can’t leave. There are lots of problems faced by the married and other people in the office because of this wrong mentally of bachelors employs. They used to live in hostels and flats away from there family so they spent time the office, so married people are helpless they also has to stay late in the office. It affects their family relationship. According to me FAMILY should be the first priority in anyone life. Its humble request from me for the guys who stay late In the office.
“Please guys develop habit to finish work on or before the time, Don’t stay late. Try to give time to your family. They are the most important assets in your life.”
For kind information of all I am still bachelor but if not important I never used to stay late at the office.

How to get correct output from employe

This is my first post regarding management. Few days back I read the article which makes to learn me how we can get the employs work with more enthusiasm and more energy. I let you understand this by taking and example.
There are two managers having equal team. Both the teams were trained from the same source and both the team was having same capabilities.
Once the managers of both the teams were called, and assign the same project. It was a kind of test for the managers.
Team A‘s manager goes to his team and said:
“This is an exam for us, and we have to win it by hook or by crook. I don’t want to know how can you do this, All I want to know is how will you do it,”. He asked to employs to devote more and more time. He pressurizes the worker. Now if there is any mistake by workers he started shouting on them.
Now the workers afraid from him.
While on the other hand the team B’s manager took the meeting of the employs and said:
“Hey team we got another great opportunity. Apart from our daily task now we can utilize our spare time to improve our skills more, we are assigned a great project which is very knowledgeable and full of challenges to prove our self. We will have lots of fun doing these”. Now the employs are very excited and desperately waiting that this project should assign to them. They started with lots of energy and enthusiasm to complete the project.
And finally you all know who win, YES you are correct TEAM B.
So always use positive and enthusiastic word for employs. Try not to pressurize them because “Talents comes out from PASSION not from PRESSURE”. Be friendly with them. Always with them when they need your help.
