Background

Since the days of my management education in graduate school (many many years ago), more so after I had a class on Business Ethics, I started to think about business and personal mangement from a different perspective. While staying focussed on the goals, it is very important to have one very fundamental value as the basis to drive the day to day approach to management. If this fundamental value is the same for personal and professional management, one's life becomes very consistent. This fundamental value in my opinion is positive energy. In a world where it is easy to get sucked into very simple negative habits like "talking behind someone" to very disastrous negative engagements like terrorism, it is important to realize that it is very possible to learn and master the skills to stay positive and reap success. This blog is my small effort to impart these techniques to acquire, sustain and weave in positive approaches into our lives. I will focus more on professional management techniques for the corporate world, however, I will also discuss personal management techniques to break up the monotony.

Build strong business relationships... the right way



It is imperative for a leader to build and continue to strengthen true relationships with other business units.

Time and again, people adopt quick and easy relationship strategies based on unfair sacrifices of scape goats. Such strategies are really short lived, and they foster finger pointing versus ownership and responsibility. Easy scape goats happen to be people that we lead! We must build bridges without blowing away the foundation that supports us.

A true leader is one who has the ability to gather support and build these relationships the right way - based on empathy and real interest for collective success.
