Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Saturday, April 25, 2015. The Quick Vs the Dead" . when does the defeat begin? Attended a top level day long “brainstorming session” of concerned executives of large successful corporation. Needless to say, the topic was how to stay relevant, get back the lost glories, innovate faster and be nimble in execution. First two hours of the session was fairly chaotic. An over abundance of knowledge and awareness on everyone's part, of whats. However, before the centi...

betaal-speak: Talent Centric Performance Management
http://betaalgyan.blogspot.com/2015/04/performance-management-natures-way.html
Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Sunday, April 5, 2015. Talent Centric Performance Management. I see a lot of hullabaloo about the new ways of performance management in corporations. The recent one making waves is “ Deloitte’. S” ( supposedly) radical new way of doing performance management. I still believe the very fundamentals of “performance management” is being overlooked by the experts. Let me narrate a story of a coconut farmer. The farmer had another employee, the monkey! The farmer was...

Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Monday, May 26, 2014. I have always wondered, what governs ONE to cross over that seemingly un-conquerable boundary of physical pain. Is it physical strength or mental steadfastness? Marathoners who like to touch than Finish line (42KMs. phew! Coming to my own experiments. I ve always had the dream of completing 108 Suryanamaskar's in one GO. But used to convince myself to give up after 48 / 50! Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Forming Winning Teams : Activation Phase.

betaal-speak: A "Burmese" story of my generation
http://betaalgyan.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-burmese-story-of-my-generation.html
Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Monday, July 28, 2014. A "Burmese" story of my generation. We have heard many stories of many repressive rulers from 70s-80s and even a bit in to 90s across the world. Africa, where scores of asylum seekers landed up in USA during Idi Amin, Gadaffi rules. Pakistan - during ever running proxy ruling by military, Afganistan during taliban ruling. However, I never heard, a personal, heartfelt story of immigrants from Burma to USA during late 80s. My colleague beco...

Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Saturday, October 26, 2013. Toll vs. QoS. Its very common in rural / sub-urban Odisha to see groups of kids, blocking the road and extorting money from motorists. Extortion may be too harsh a word as, this happens primarily around Dushera / Diwali and ideally the money raised should go towards the festivities of that area. However, like in any other org one can think off, the money does not always go to the "puja"! What a neat arrangement to move this activity ...

Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Friday, December 27, 2013. One of my very close friends (she lives in the bay area, west coast USA) posted a catching status update on facebook! Goes like this . Why are Indians in the US scared of pet dogs while they comfortably walk amongst stray dogs in India? When walking my dog, if I encounter someone of Indian origin, 9 out of 10 times, they either freeze with horrified look on their faces or swiftly move away. Bear in mind I own a toy poodle …". While ch...

Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Friday, April 11, 2014. Changing businesses with their own profit and loss responsibilities, even within a big company is like joining a new company by itself. I have heard about the nightmarish stories of people changing the org, at leadership levels, and within weeks realizing, they do not fit in at all. In a team outing, in the bus en-route to destination, the seat next to me remained open! Its a very different feeling, as it has always been the reverse so f...

http://betaalgyan.blogspot.com/2015/04/diversity-poem.html
Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Friday, April 10, 2015. Diversity - A Poem. Team is not a herd. Glow in your own color,. And yet, form a collage-spectacular,. To make a beautiful Rainbow, paint the arc with. A team is a beautiful music. Not just one octave,. Tie not the strings together,. Not all notes are C’ Sharp in a guitar. Wear your personality, up your sleeve. And to conduct the best walk. Bring your most stylish avatar. All are not black cocktail gowns, in the closet of a super star.

Prospective - twisted and real and unusual! Monday, November 18, 2013. Alignment of Time to "top of mind". Sorry for being a bit preachy here . but an amazingly simple tool to keep us stress free and keep moving the top priorities! What causes majority of the stress at work or at home are, the things one is concerned about does not happen the way he / she wants it. At work - it can be lack of nimble work plans or sub-optimal orgs! Which bothers one . but no real fundamental change happens. Simple really ...
