Hello dear blog n people... It was a hectic day with PPTs and talks..
This is an excerpt from talk by Mr. Anand Pillai from a reputed IT services company who was here (SPJIMR) today..
Few people easily shelved Mr. pillai's talk as general gyan. No doubt it was mostly so but given to the sea of gyan we get in classes, this one had little pearls woven in between. Ok OK.. i gotta lil problem here too.. i've turned appreciative of mostly all the things these days.. Anyways here are few good lines he used and their context..
- Age is too much a price to pay for maturity... Do it now and learn it now (reflect)
- Greed is good
- Do not answer the question; answer the objective behind the question. Answer the intention with which the question was asked.
- You do not have an option to make fool of yourself; you are a fool. You can only choose to decide when u want to make fool of yourself... (when you are in class or when u are facing a client)
- Decisions are made emotionally are justified rationally.
- Most valuable commodity is information.
We had a video case study on the movie wall street. Mr Pillai analysed the conversation between Bud fox and Gekko.. It was lil stretched but marvelous. I advise all my MBA frnds to watch it. It's a way to get out of 'rat race' as robert kiyosaki would put.

Teachers get emotional when the topic is close to their heart.. we ought to know where we should stop 'getting' from them and let them explore their fantasy land. By the time they get back we would have reflected upon what we got..

Interesting Read..but what caught my attention was.. "i've turned appreciative of mostly all the things these days.."
thanks coconut :)
ya... we can discuss that interesting part offline :)
Nice read. I left after the first break. Frankly I would have loved if there was more focus on how do you put the processes in place that ensures continuous creation of intrapreneurs in an organization. But all I got in first half was lotsa stuff I already knew.
I sincerely hope he touched upon them in the second half. However my gut feel says if any company figures out how to do that on a continuous sustainable basis, the last thing they would do is share that secret in an open forum.
Keep posting... atb

"age is too much a price for maturity"-well said
well said ashu... Processes are very subjective and depend on company dynamics. As you wrote, they wont tell us here.
this one was beautiful...specially the ending...keep going...
