Adapted From Steve Chriest I can almost see professor Peter Drucker, widely acknowledged as the creator and inventor of modern management, gazing out his office window at Claremont Graduate University and pondering the widespread economic malaise that has affected nearly every industry and company worldwide. Professionals in the field of Customer Management face strong challenges today. Challenges, that Drucker's business philosophy directly address. For me, Drucker’s genius was not only the original thinking he recorded in timeless writings, but also his ability to remind managers of the obvious—those truths that stand directly in front of us and that we sometimes forget or fail to see in ...

One can often see two ways of managing major accounts that are certain to fail. The first is management by chance. There is no control. There is no plan. No one can explain why we are winning the business or forecast how long our success will last. We do not learn from our mistakes or from our successes. This is at one extreme. At the other extreme is management by formula. Here everything is documented, controlled and decided. I have seen one account planning process which demands that for every account the team must hold a one day orientation meeting, then gather information for twenty-one working days and then hold a two day planning session. The timescale cannot be changed. The people w...

बहुत प्यार करते थे न मुझे , फिर क्यों चले गये... ? मुझमे मेरे होने का अहसास कराया था तुमने , फिर खुद को मुझमे समाहित कर, क्यों चले गये?कहा चले गये? तुम्हारे बिना मेरी दुनिया क्या होगी, इसका फैसला किये बिना तुम क्यों चले गये? सबकुछ तो वही है,बस तुम्हारी कमी खलती है , तुम्हारी ये राधा तुम्हे हर पल पूजा करती है. कभी तो मिलोगे,कही तो मिलोगे, एक बार छला मुझको ,पर अब न छलोगे. कह दो एक बार की तुम मेरे लिए हो, ये था तुम्हे एहसास ,इसलिए फिर से मिले हो. अब जो मिले हो, तो ऐसे न जाने दूंगी, वही पीड़ा,वही कसक खुद में समाने न दूंगी, दूंगी तोहफा उसी अहसास का, जो तुम बिन तिल-तिल कर जिया है मैंने, रख के सीने पे तेरे शीश , मै खुद को मिट जाने दूंगी, हा तेरे प्यार में मै खुद को सिमट जाने दूंगी. - [25/12/2006] ...

Which way is the dancer spinning… clockwise or counter-clockwise? Most people will see her turning counter-clockwise, which apparently means you’re more left brained (logical). I see her spinning that way, and it’s at first almost impossible to imagine her going clockwise. But it happens, usually by focusing or when something unexpectedly alters your perception. Here’s the typical run down on left versus right brain: LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic  detail oriented  facts rule  words and language  present and past  math and science  can comprehend  knowing  acknowledges  order/pattern perception  knows object name  reality based  forms strategies  practical  safe RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling  “big picture” oriented  imagination rules  symbols and images  present and future  philosophy religion  can “get it” (i.e. meaning)  believes  appreciates  spatial perception  knows object function  fantasy based  presents possibilities  impetuous  risk taking Many people associate the...

Sourcing free profiles from Naukri.com database. Today , I came across the feature of searching resumes for free in Naukri. I could not believe it. I wanted to check if it is true or not. I tried calling Naukri call centre and asked them how come you give RESDEX for free ? The Customer service executive explained this feature. It was quite interesting and I got convinced . Probably , this feature is an old one but I noticed this only today. Anyways, if you are one like me , please read this . It would be helpful for you too. 1. Go to the home page of www.naukri.com 2. On the home page right side bar , scroll down to find a Box with a heading Recruiter 3. Inside the box , you can find 3 links, click the second one which says " Search CVs for Free now" 4. Here you go for different searches and get your profile you want. So what is the catch here ? Why should Naukri.com give the database for free ? Ok , I asked the same question to the customer service executive. The reply I got was ,...
