What is this Blog About?

For a while now I have been seeking to extend my responsibilities beyond where it stands - to thank the world that has been exceedingly kind to me over the years, add value to it. It was not easy! After some serious deliberation, I chose a competency that is my livelihood, a vocation I am very passionate about and committed to "interacting with people and leveraging group dynamics for individual and group success".

This blog is the result of that aspiration. I have introduced topics and experiences that contribute to Workplace Readiness and Leadership Development. The content is initially a reflection of my view but is aimed to attract diverse views from visitor to the site. The collective content will value add to the site. Businesses & professionals everywhere deserve this!

Its not about the money, stupid!

MONEY may seem like the obvious draw but surprisingly it isn't ! Commitment to continuous learning, a performance metrics based culture where personal growth and related rewards are linked to achievement of quantifiable goals, an environment that promotes risk-taking, where business is run with a broad worldwide outlook rather than an inward focused approach and tight hiring standards that brings in the best talent into the organizations are more powerful drivers.

Top talent also thrives in an environment that provides constant feedback about them from their superiors, subordinates and peers, what they think about their organization and their work environment and how satisfied the customers are with the organization.

Top talent also looks at the organization’s leadership - their vision, bench strength and ability to execute. They also are financially literate, keenly examining the organization's financials. They understand that revenue and margins can be 'dressed-up' - they focus on the parameter that matters the most - an impressive growing CASH FLOW!
