Inspiring Subrato..

Thanks to the benevolence of Dr.Thimmappa, we were all gifted with a feast of inspiring talks by Mr. Subrato and his colleagues of MindTree consultancy on "Vision building" on a lovely saturday. This wonderful present came bundled with a healthy and sumptuous lunch from e-inn and a personally autographed book,"Go kiss the world", of the great, Mr.Subrato. It was very interesting and informative session, with some highly motivating and spiritually uplifting movies served in between. I particularly liked the one by Mr. Dewitt Jones, ace photographer of NatGeo.
All the speakers were very eloquent and seem to be well aware of how to captivate the crowd. They elaborated on the importance of having a vision and motivating your team members to share that vision and collectively work towards realising that vision. Systematic thinking and tools to acheive that, were wonderfully presented by Mr. Kalyan in a very cheerful and joyful way. The guy just grows on you and you can't just help but liking him. Though we couldn't hear much of Mr. Raja, since Mr.Subrato kept interrupting him very often, I found the guy very friendly and as someone with whom you can talk about just anything. I guess its the smile.I found the idea of "Communication real estates" quite interesting.. I guess it's one of the very important facilitators for any team to work cohesively and succeed. I wish we had something similar in our institution also. I personally feel that here in NH, much thought hasn't been given to any such concepts. It was nice to see many big heads of our institution actively participate in all the discussions and it will be really interesting to see how much of it will be really applied into practice here in NH.
There's no doubt that its necessary to attend such meetings, but what is more important is to stay inspired..

Perfect Anil u couldn't have put it in a better way. What we lack is the ability to interact with each other at a much more personal level than we do at work. How many of us know the others family members? In fact we all should be grateful to our spouses for allowing us to keep such taxing schedules. I propose we as a team do something about it and show to the others how we can achieve much more by gelling together. What about a day trip with all family members for a start.
