Over the last couple of years, through the years of the pandemic, all of us have been reminded sternly that material possessions and wealth cannot substitute the value of human life. We learnt again that we must collaborate among people and focus on the goodness of human values. The world of work underwent several changes. […]

All of us know that managers need a combination of hard skills and soft skills to win in the marketplace. How is 2023 different? In the dynamic landscape of 2023, the role of a manager is more crucial than ever before. The ability to navigate uncertainties, lead diverse teams, and drive results demands a unique […]

Growth is great for everybody. How does it take place? As the adage goes, “Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance”. Every leader has certain habits; what a leader does every day and doesn’t do as a matter of habit determines the contours of the path the unit traverses. Personal leanings Each […]

A study undertaken by Professors at Harvard Business School in 2020 revealed that the ESG (environmental, social and governance) funds and the companies with a greater commitment to ESG outperformed the markets when Covid19 shook the world. The millennials and Gen Z are more vocal and concerned about the actions companies and senior leaders take […]

We have heard of the famous quote, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” We understand culture is the way the collective leadership of an organisation thinks, acts and interacts with the stakeholders. What about the growth dimension – does culture aid in boosting growth? Are they related? On the face of it, growth and culture are […]

Telecommuting or remote work was a mere topic of discussion prior to the pandemic. Times changed and the world of work underwent a massive change at a rapid pace. Teams met virtually, and customers and business partners transacted business through online interactions.

Chat GPT uses NLP (natural language processing) system that is designed to learn human conversation and automate tasks performed by humans. Logically speaking, Chat GPT can reduce […]

There is no such thing as multitasking. Many of us find this hard to accept because many of us can do a few things in parallel. For example, we can write an email and at the same time, watch a movie. It seems like a good thing because two things get done at the same […]

Businesses have no option but to grow if they want to stay relevant for the long term. J C Penney has famously said, “No company can afford to not move forward. It may be on the top of the heap today, but it will be at the bottom of the heap tomorrow if it doesn’t.” […]

Companies are ambitious to grow: they grow their market presence and capacity to bring in more revenues and profits; grow their stakeholder experiences. At the same time, some of them look for other companies in the market having a synergy with their operations to either merge with them or acquire them. This route to get […]

Someone said, “Be quick, but don’t hurry.” It’s time that we remind ourselves of this adage. We are a recruitment company; every day we speak to jobseekers – active as well as passive ones. We have been noticing a consistent fall in patience and accommodative stance among people when the workplace environment isn’t up […]
