 Process

Brajesh Sharma  |  Argues in support of  "Process"  |  4 years ago
Correct process lead to quality product, if process is wrong quality product can not be made. Human makes error. Errors lead to defects so if the process is not fit enough to find out errors then, it won't give quality product. Process is...

Because people is the one who creates the process. This process differs from one organisation to other, beacuse the process is not an constant thing to maintain the project or any organisation..we change the process based on our needs...and the...

Best People will obviously come out with best processes!! But not otherway round...   Processes ensure smooth delivery, but in silent waters!!! Which is never a condition in most of the projects. You require best people to lay down process......

By : Maureen Sharib Plan Prepare Penetrate Persevere Prosper (The Five Ps) The following is a condensation of the former lesson (Sun Tzu’s Art of War) As I was doing the Art of War lessons (last), it occurred to me that there were some points Sun Tzu kept repeating. All in all, Sun Tzu recommends strategic methods of winning that rarely required actual warfare. Organization, deception and the use of spies were his main tools - but if it came to war, he used his detailed insight on its methods and strategies to control success. He numbers five methods that I’ve renamed for use in our industry. Measurement I call Plan Estimation of Quantity I call Prepare Calculation I call Penetrate Balancin...

 People who multitask are best of it?
By : Nagpal Singh
Raju V P  |  Argues in support of  "People who multitask are worst at it?"  |  3 years ago
No way. Successful managers multitask. They are required to keep track, follow and direct so many jobs (as well as people) at the sametime. As a person advances in the corporate ladder (or in the personal life as well), multitasking will...
K. NARAYAN  |  Argues in support of  "People who multitask are best of it?"  |  3 years ago
If we take the meaning of multi-tasking literally , as being able to concentrate on several tasks at the same time , with optimal results in all of them , then it is obvious that there is a limit to how many tasks can be taken up. Consider a...
Paresh.Khanchandani  |  Argues in support of  "People who multitask are best of it?"  |  3 years ago
As far as the workplace is concerned "switch-tasking" may be a more accurate term but that does not mean that multi-tasking doesn't exist, nor does it mean that switch-tasking is always inefficient. It requires dividing one's attention but, like...

It is relatively easy to identify the use count and resource usage of your SP’s, but first let me discuss how SQL Server maintains the execution statistics. The SQL Server engine keeps execution statistics for each SQL Server 2005 instance. Execution Statistics are an accumulation of execution information about what has been run since the instances has started. Each time an instance is stopped and restarted all execution statistics are reset. Individual execution statistics for an object are tied to cached execution plans. When a SP is compiled, an execution plan is cached in memory. These cached execution plans are uniquely identified by a plan_handle. Since memory is limited, SQL Server from time to time will remove execution plans from memory, if the cached plan is not being actively used. Therefore the statistics stored for a particular SP maybe for an accumulation of stats since SQL Server started, if the SP has only be compiled once. Or, it may only have statistics for the...

Free Style Marketing How many times have you been to a business conference that guided the world to sell things for free? Well, if you never heard about one, then you need to know about Nokia World 2007 Conference where Chris Anderson, Editor in Chief talks to the world referring to this. The campaign broke all the traditional rules of selling a service product. As per Chris, the new way to sell today has changed focus from the actual product to the complementary product or supporting product that could enhance the selling of original product. Chris talks about the new selling concept of 0 + 2 = 2 in contrary to the old concept of 1+1 = 2. Now, what the hell does he mean by this Maths..? Consider Company A that sells both - the products and the services on the same products. As per the traditional earning model Company A earned Rs 1 revenue from selling the product and Rs 1 revenue from the services on the product. The modern way of selling sacrifices the revenue on product to earn...

What Indian Business Education don’t provide for the Environment. Value generated and transacted in Business is the hallmark and pillar of the skill generated from a Business education. A business when it sell products in India, they don’t worry about the affordability of their wares by the masses let alone functionality which may be part of it. A business incurs around 40% of fixed cost component along with may be 30% variable cost and probably the rest as ‘conversion cost’. What Business education teach us and what is followed in  Efficient economies is they fix a breakeven point say 100 units of sale. These 100 units will provide the years cost incurred. After this point they will start giving discounts say 10% or so, so that more of products will move at lowered costs. If products are priced far above these three costs then the demand will subside and the production line will stagnate even for normal production. Two things are required in the environment for this process to...
