Let things take their time
A false sense of urgency can be devastating. In our rush to find the next big thing, the next “disruptive” force, we often don’t give things time. Organizations rush to eliminate bell curves before they are ready for it, decisions become data driven even before we understand the data and reorganization decisions are taken before … Continue reading Let things take their time
How are you feeling right now?
Remember how mood-tracking apps were all over the place a few years back? It fed beautifully into the whole self-quantification phase that individuals had just embarked on. I wonder why it never became mainstream. I quite liked the idea and to be honest, I still do. The intent was noble. An individual tracks his/her mood … Continue reading How are you feeling right now?
The last few months of the year
I have stumbled across a few posts now that start with the disbelief of the year ending. It’s true. 2016, like every other year went by a little too quickly. I cannot believe that it’s time for year end posts. I am trying to assess how eventful 2016 has been for the HR fraternity as … Continue reading The last few months of the year
Companies that inspired in 2015
When towards the end of last year, INC.com came up with its list of best companies; it got me thinking about the companies that inspired me in 2015. These companies make it to this list for multiple reasons. Some were brave enough to experiment, some achieved monumental feats and some just inspired us by doing … Continue reading Companies that inspired in 2015
My favorite year-end TED talks
I do love this time of the year. The air has an overwhelming festive spirit and just as many lists and resolutions flying around. It is amazing what the New Year energy can manifest into. Determination and enthusiasm to become the best possible version of oneself has never been higher. It is close to impossible … Continue reading My favorite year-end TED talks
Yes and…
Improvisational comedy has lot to teach us especially when it comes to how to handle ideas in the corporate world. Ideas are extremely fragile. They appear but for a moment and it only takes one ‘but’ or a ‘no’ to quell it. Rarely do ideas ever survive criticism at the formative stage. It is when … Continue reading Yes and…
The ones who should be making Resolutions
I love the beginning of the year. It’s the time of the year when you are fooled into thinking that you could set unrealistic goals and achieve them too despite having failed year on year. By now, I’ve read and heard a lot of people all around the globe set resolutions for the New Year. … Continue reading The ones who should be making Resolutions
Big Idea 2015
It’s hard to believe that the year went by as quickly as it did. (Or is it just me?) It is the time of the year again when LinkedIn Influencers talk about their Big Ideas for 2015. I love crawling through these pages to see how it is going to influence our area of work. … Continue reading Big Idea 2015
Press On!
(An open letter to the employee who inspired me today.) Dear XYZ (name changed to maintain confidentiality), I logged in today to find you being publicly denounced by many for an idea that you had pitched and put into action. You were one of the few who dared participate in our idea generation contest and … Continue reading Press On!
