Right & Wrong Vs Likes & Dislikes

Deciding on our own choices is the most comfortable way of taking decisions. It is difficult and sometimes painful when we are expected to include others' perspective in our decisions. The clear understanding of ethical principles, values towards life, and moral reasoning may help us overcoming this conflict. We should try to come out of this “I” and “Me” syndrome. I have seen people debating and proving that “I am right”, but in fact they should discuss to prove “What is right”.

Propensity to leave

It has been observed that people are now leaving/changing companies frequently. Earlier, people used to stay in companies/organizations until they retire. But later, the duration was reduced to 10-15 years, it was again reduced to 5-9 years, it was again reduced to 2-4 years. But now, people are leaving/changing companies in less than two years. 

Shrimad Bhagwat Gita says; 

              Raja Yoga - The Physical and Mental Control

              Karma Yoga- The Action

              Bhakti Yoga - The Devotion or Dedication

              Jnana Yoga - The Knowledge or Wisdom

Then, what else is needed to succeed…

The concept of competency management clearly states that an employee should only be promoted to leadership positions when he/she has the competency of developing, guiding, nourishing, and sustaining a team.

I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think..

One of the most important elements that differentiated workforce strategy brings in the organizational culture is measurement of value added by employees and positions to the strategic goals (Becker, Huselid, & Beatty, p.151). In other words, it specifically focuses on strategic impact of workforce and jobs (Becker et al., 2009, p.152), which further enables organizations in developing strategic performance measurement system (Becker et al., 2009, p.153).

Instead of depending too much on benchmarking, companies should examine that how employees uniquely contribute to strategic success of the company (Becker et al., 2009, pp.147-149).
