sanjay dey  |  Argues in support of  "BANE"  |  21 days ago
l live in Kolkata, and everyday I avail the metro service. If you see the rush you will know the bane of living in Kolkata. Its like going in a packed cage where we have only some space to breathe. Every where you go you will find long queues...

Population a BOON...u must be kidding. There are a number of ways to prove it, Lets take infrastructure for instance. How many flyovers do Delhi have...over 50 I guess...but still we all know the traffic situation......Paris has 5...and the average...
Manoj Kumar  |  Argues in support of  "BOON"  |  2 years ago
Comparing the growth of economy for over the decades i feel that population be a boon for developing country like india. more population means more demands for the products which definitely an accelarator for economic growth. But at the same time...

Piyush Jain  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
The diversity of Indian culture has been vividly mentioned by Mr. Reddy. I fully support his views. The only addition I want to make is that, "it is impossible to make a genuine research report of so many diverse nations, if we take a single...
Azhar Kazmi  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  2 years ago
What Makrand refers to (looking for a co-religionist in a far-away place) is natural. That's cultural affinity. That's why so many Indians and Pakistanis get together when they are in the US or Australia. They speak the same language and they...
SHARATH CHANDAR REDDY  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I completely disagree with the so called research. 1. As mentioned by Makrand, there are so many religions in India. Probably no other country on this earth has this social set up. With this kind of demographics, some disturbances are bound to...

Values of consumers

 Price of product
Manish Gupta  |  Argues in support of  " Values of consumers "  |  2 years ago
I'd suggest the following: 1. Consider the values, cultures, traditions and other needs of the target segment customers to identify the need 2. Study and analyse demographics to arrive at the best possible selling price 3. Work backwards and...
Piyush Jain  |  Argues in support of  |  2 years ago
This debate has to be set in context of a particular country. I am assuming it to be India. Indian consumers are price conscious. I remember my sales management teacher pointing it that the 4 P's of an Indian market are Price, Price, Price and Price. ...
Kavitha Shankar  |  Argues in support of  " Values of consumers "  |  2 years ago
According to me we should first focus on the values of the consumer. So companies should recognize that social and cultural values have a very strong hold on the people. Culture values play major role in deciding what to buy. Moreover, rural...

1 consummer needs should be addressed
2 Shift from channel-centric to customer-centric mindset
M. Prabhakar Rao  |  Added idea  "Give focussed attention to every customer!"  |  2 years ago
As every customer is as important as every other customer, give focussed attention to each customer to gain insights on the needs and wants of him/her and try to meet them.
malladi madhukumar  |  Added idea  "consummer needs should be addressed "  |  2 years ago
THE RECESSION, JOLT TO JOB MARKETS MADE ONCE FREE SPENDING CLASS SPEND THRIFT lOOKING FOR VALUE FOOR EVERY RUPEE THEY SPEND. WE SHOULD CONVINCE THE CUSTOMER THAT HE IS GETTING UTILITIES aND PRODUCTS AT REASONABLE RATES.  
Piyush Jain  |  Supported idea  "Shift from channel-centric to customer-centric mindset"  |  2 years ago
I support your thought when you move from being channel-centric to customer-centric in your approach. But it would be a gross mistake by the brand manager, if he stops there and does not think more. This is because no consumer today would like to...

1 Knowledge, presentation skill & confidence
2 Knowledge, Oratory Skill & HUMOR
Jayant Vishnu  |  Supported idea  "Knowledge, Oratory Skill & HUMOR"  |  2 years ago
I throughly agree with Makrand's idea. These are three important factors which makes a person a good speaker. And as Piyush said if you are not been used to mixing humor in your speech before don't attempt in public speech. Unless and until your...
Piyush Jain  |  Supported idea  "Knowledge, Oratory Skill & HUMOR"  |  2 years ago
I absolutely agree with you on knowledge and oratory skills, but I have some inhibitions on the use of humor. As you rightly said that humors helps in "breaking the ice" or "audience inclusion" if I may use a different term.  But, what I want to...
Shaju George  |  Supported idea  "Knowledge, presentation skill & confidence"  |  2 years ago
If you have the knowledge, confidence will come automatically. With some presentation skill..one can express it properly and become a good speaker..

1 Job specification, roles and responsibilities
2 Don't treat them like machines
piyush sharma  |  Added idea  "Give them some space for personal growth"  |  1 year ago
Don't treat them like slaves,give them some time to spend moments with their family,to have some rest in life.Material possession isn't everything, whatever facility you are giving them,if they are not happy,not tension free then what's the use of...
Piyush Jain  |  Added idea  |  2 years ago
It is very important to follow the policy of employee inclusion and empowerment for an organization to achieve job satisfaction. If the organization makes the bigger picture of their business clearly understood to its employees and make...
Megumi Oyanagi  |  Supported idea  "Job specification, roles and responsibilities"  |  2 years ago
I agree with other ideas as well and actually voted several ideas, but I would suppourt this idea because this is the core of my idea. I would say the solution is to clearly define fair job specification, roles and responsiblities, share with the...
