Mahatma Gandhiji played a key role in getting freedom. He is an important figure and is respected by us. Perhaps there can be few things which he shouldn't have done but then in the end what matters is that he was the main leader in the struggle for independence. Yet another book on Mahatma Gandhi has created controversy which is doing the rounds in the market by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Joseph Lelyveld titled 'Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi and his Struggle in India'. This biography claims Mahatma Gandhi to be bisexual and raciest. This has created an outrage not only among the Indian people but has also become a topic of big debate in all social sites. The book suggested that Gandhi, the...

Many persons write many things about many things. It is best to ignore such writings, and let these be buried in sands of time.

Its a pity isnt it,that things are so lopsided. I think it is very important to learn/see different skills in action.Leadership is another important trait. Self esteem-the feeling that after all I have done just HR needs to go. Gowri

There are three main questions that you should ask yourself if you are planning to go in for MBA abroad. These questions are:   Why International MBA? So, why did I do an MBA? When faced with this question, I put myself through the 'ART' test. The test asks three questions of a candidate considering doing an MBA: Do you want to Accelerate your career in the current industry? Do you want to Rotate to a business/ corporate function within the current industry? Do you want to Transform your skill-sets to change to another industry? An affirmative answer to any one question is, superficially, sufficient reason to want to do an MBA. The important thing for me was to identify exactly where this c...
