Have you
replaced your car with a helicopter? |
|
| |
It is while adopting new
discontinuous technology and
new management concepts
that we are making the mistake
of thinking that we are
replacing our car with a new
car whereas in reality we are
replacing it with a helicopter.
Just like when you have to
think in a different manner
when you are traveling by a
helicopter instead of a car,
you have to think in a different
manner when you adopt new
management concepts or a
new discontinuous technology.

fly your helicopter instead of
driving it. |

Businesses have no business to be involved in CSR |
| |
The discussion on corporate social
responsibility (CSR) continues
unabated. In fact, now people are
talking about establishing a CSR
Index. However, we believe that
businesses have no business to be
involved in CSR and that society does
not need any charity from business
organizations. All we need is that
businesses do what they are supposed
to do, that is, provide high quality
goods and services cost effectively
without infringing upon the rights
of others. You are invited to read our
logic based on which we are daring to
swim against the tide. |

Front office |
|
Organizations have not truly
understood the role of customer
contact employees such as
customer service representatives
and front office employees
of a hotel. These employees
can and do play a major role in
not only increasing customer
satisfaction and retention but
also in increasing the revenues
and profitability of a business.
Here we will discuss how by
challenging our old assumptions
and reviewing the position of
front office and its staff in the
organization structure of a hotel
can do wonders for increasing its
revenue and profitability. |

Har OFFICE ki kahani |
My son finds it
better to not leave
office on
time because
if he does, his boss keeps
calling him on some pretext or the
other. An executive working with a
large reputed company told me that
last week he was so fed with work
pressure on one side and his wife?s
demand for quality time that he
chucked his mobile phone in despair.
Recently, one of my clients wanted a
800 page directory printed in 3 days
time which is physically impossible.
Another one of my clients called
me a few days back and complained
that he was not able to contact me at
11PM because I had turned off my
mobile phone at night while I was
sleeping. Here is your opportunity
to find out what is wrong. |
