Is There Room for Emotions in the Workplace?

Is There Room for Emotions in the Workplace?

On Feb. 4, the eve of the Super Tuesday primaries, Sen. Hillary Clinton had an emotional moment. The fact that her "teary moment" made headlines and caused a media outcry highlighted a common double standard professional women face: how the display of emotion can be perceived as an indicator of the incapacity for leadership; don't show emotion and be rejected as unfeminine. Communication and organization experts at Emory University and its Goizueta Business School explore the role of women and emotion in the workplace and note that for future generations, many of the stereotypes may no longer be a factor.

Is Wallmart good for America?

Consumer (customer) prospective- WALLMART providing consumer goods at lower prices if we compare to other stores...... so it’s good ...... consumers are saving out from their daily consumption needs and investing more...

Manufacturer prospective- lot of companies shut down their operations and auctioned off because they were totally dependent on wallmart like rubbermate. Because wallmart is screwing up all the companies for low prices and companies are not able to survive but wallmart has other options like chinese companies.....so it’s bad.....

Economy as a whole- wallmart is importing 80% of goods. It leads to high trade deficit in recent years. It’s bad. wallmart is creating lot of job opportunities in America but at lower wages. So again, it’s not so good.

So what is good in wallmart???

Wallmart is gaining power over all of their suppliers. First wallmart screwed it up lot of the American companies by this power and now what??

Is wallmart able to use this power on Chinese suppliers to screw it up?

If no, then what will happen to wallmart and america, if Chinese companies also entered in to retail field?

(They already got American technology and following American systems to work)

If yes, then who else will supply goods to wallmart?

Two ways possible-

1) Internal competition in china....( restrictions are government of china won’t let it happen like this)

2) Try to explore countries like india and others.....( do Indian companies have a potential to compete china)

Now come to india point-

If wallmart entered in to india then how india will be effected?

First indian industries which are not able to compete with Chinese products, they will not survive. Second india industries who have potential to compete, they will get benefitted..

But are Indian companies really having that potential right now??

I don’t think so.

May be in some areas like automobile parts, tyres , software services, outsourcing works. We are doing good. But it doesn’t mean that we will also do well in manufacturing of consumer goods because Chinese are far ahead from us in technology etc. we have opportunity but difficult to tap....

So what should we have to do??

Either be a retailer or manufacturer??

So let’s start comment on it....

its really very interesting.....

where your "knowing mind" lies????

if you think it's inside your body then...

THE BUDDHA SAID......
if your knowing mind was really in your body, you
should first be clear about everything inside it. You should,
therefore, see everything in your body before seeing things
outside it; even if you cannot see your heart, liver, spleen,
and stomach, at least you should be clear about your growing
nails and hair, about that which moves along your nerves
and the pulsing of your veins. Why are you not clear about
all this? If you do not see things within, how can you see
those outside? Therefore, your contention that your knowing
mind is inside your body is groundless.’


if now you think that your mind is really OUTSIDE
your body. For instance a lamp should light up everything
in a room before the courtyard outside through the open
door. If you do not see what is in your body but see things outside
it, this is like a lamp placed outside a room which cannot light
what is in it. This being so clear that there can be no doubt,
are you still wrong aacc. to Buddha?’

YES..

THE BUDDHA SAID...
‘If your knowing mind is outside
your body, the two are separate. Thus when your mind
knows something, your body should not feel it and when
your body feels something, your mind should not be aware
of it.
Now if i show you my hand, when your eyes see it,
does your mind discern it?’
if yes then, how can your mind be outside
your body? Therefore, your contention that your knowing
and discerning mind is outside your body is groundless.’

now if you think that the SUBSTANCE of
(your) thinking is the nature of mind which arises when it
unites with externals and which is neither within nor without
nor in between then
THE BUDDHA SAID...
If the
mind has substance, when your hand grasps your body,
does your mind feeling this (touch) come from within or without?
If from within, you should see what is in your body and
if from without, you should see your face.’

so think about it and pls. comment on it....
hope so we will reach on some firm conclusion.......

When Will the Bailout Bubble Burst?

The only bull market these days is in bailouts. But that one
will burst soon enough.

The bull market is over, but the bailout craze is running at “fever pitch.” In less than a month, the Federal government moved to issue a trillion dollars in U.S. Treasuries to back bailout loans; took over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, as well as the world’s largest insurance company, American International Group (AIG); and banned short selling on financial and other stocks. As these pages discussed last month, it won’t work. ~ October 2008 Elliott Wave Financial Forecast

customer care service" aisa bhi hota hai"

This is a real story happened between the customer of General Motors and its customer-care executive.

A complaint was received by the Pontiac Division of General Motors:

This is the second time I have written to you, and I don't blame you for not answering me, because I sounded crazy, but it is a fact that we have a tradition in our family of ice cream for dessert after dinner each night. But the kind of ice cream varies so, every night, after we've eaten, the whole family votes on which kind of ice cream we should have and I drive down to the store to get it. It's also a fact that I recently purchased a new Pontiac and since then my trips to the store have created a problem. You see, every time I buy a vanilla ice cream, when I start back from the store my car won't start. If I get any other kind of ice cream, the car starts just fine.

I want you to know I'm serious about this question, no matter how silly it sounds: "What is there about a Pontiac that makes it not start when I get vanilla ice cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?"

The Pontiac President was understandably skeptical about the letter, but sent an engineer to check it out anyway. The latter was surprised to be greeted by a successful, obviously well educated man in a fine neighborhood.

He had arranged to meet the man just after dinner time, so the two hopped into the car and drove to the ice cream store. It was vanilla ice cream that night and, sure enough, after they came back to the car, it wouldn't start. The engineer returned for three more nights.
The first night, they got chocolate. The car started. The second night, he got strawberry. The car started. The third night he ordered vanilla. The car failed to start. Now the engineer, being a logical man, refused to believe that this man's car was allergic to vanilla ice cream.

He arranged, therefore, to continue his visits for as long as it took to solve the problem. And toward this end he began to take notes: he jotted down all sorts of data: time of day, type of gas uses, time to drive back and forth etc. In a short time, he had a clue: the man took less time to buy vanilla than any other flavor. Why? The answer was in the layout of the store. Vanilla, being the most popular flavor, was in a separate case at the front of the store for quick pickup. All the other flavors were kept in the back of the store at a different counter where it took considerably longer to check out the flavor. Now, the question for the engineer was why the car wouldn't start when it took less time.

Once time became problem - not the vanilla ice cream, the engineer quickly came up with the answer: "Vapor lock". It was happening every night; but the extra time taken to get the other flavors allowed the engine to cool down sufficiently to start. When the man got vanilla, the engine was still too hot for the vapor lock to dissipate.

Remember: Even crazy looking problems are sometimes real and all problems seem to be simple only when we find the solution with a cool thinking.

Don't just say its "IMPOSSIBLE" without putting a sincere effort...

Observe the word "IMPOSSIBLE" carefully... You can see "I'MPOSSIBLE" ...

What really matter is your attitude and your perception

"Don't cry when the sun is gone, because the tears won't let you see the stars."
