Getting back on the wagon!

The best laid plans ....etc etc
My iron-clad resolution to write regularly sadly couldnt escape the rust of procrastination. So it is, after a long hiatus that I return to my blog, determined to get back on track.

In my defense, I DID write a couple of articles in this period, which I have posted today as well.

Perhaps at the end of a day of mass communicating, I'm all communicated out? I seem to be part of a dying breed that feels no burning urge to stay connected with as many people as possible in as many ways as possible, at the same time!!

No, I'm not on FaceBook. My life still feels pretty complete as of now, so guess its status quo for the foresable future. I feel truly sorry for my followers on Twitter. Watching paint dry would prove far more interactive and rivetting!

Well, baby steps, as I said in the beginning....... I'm back here. So lets take it one post at a time

Birthday blues and all that jazz

'17 Again', the movie poster announces and I laugh at the timing. 38's around the corner and 17 looks pretty tempting!

Granted, I'm not queen of the world as per my plan at age 6, but, I do have my own little world in which I am loved and adored, short temper, flabby arms and all. Okay, not a bad start. I don’t have the adrenalin pumping excitement of being on the race track (horse/bike/car – anything was fine at 10) but I do have heart stopping moments, albeit when watching little baby steps being taken for the first time, or the first word being spoken by my daughters, not to mention their first g

Do good employees make a good organisation? Or is it the other way around?

Chicken or the egg situation - do you get a bunch of engaged, motivated employees by being a good organisation, or do they make an organisation better? How big a role does the environment play in generating the excitement and commitment a start-up always seems to have? How do you sustain that zest and passion through to post-launch, without letting them get jaded? Keeping anticipation levels up is one way. Involving the company in what's next and making them feel they have a role to play in it will keep the enthusiasm levels high. Management continuing to keep closely involved with their staff at all levels, even after the company has grown exponentially, makes a difference as well. Appreciate those who have taken risks (within limits!) even if the idea didn't pan out. Management have to walk the talk - live the brand values, don't preach them. Love to hear what you guys have to say........spill the beans to beenz!!
