FW: NSM Theme

PE 2.0 …Time for new beginnings.

 

 

The year that was shook many a giant out of their slumber and put some into a permanent sleep. Business as usual became business unusual. Those who had their heads in the clouds were battling to keep it above water the next instance.

 

A mass of  molten iron gradually cools down and settles into a comfortable yet meaningless lump unless it is cast into a mould or forged into a shape. We have borne the heat , and in this molten state of flux the easiest thing to do is to turn into that  lump, precise in chemical composition, inconsequential in form and function. It is  time to take up the hammer and cast ourselves into what we are meant to be. They say Near Death Experiences change your whole perspective on life  and make you question your own purpose and existence.

Though it wasn’t that drastic for us, It is perhaps time to have the conversation about who we are, what we are really meant to do and how are we going to go about it.

Let us learn from history and look beyond the math when we engineer our identity. The quest for meaning has taken man over many a mountain but the closest he has ever come to an answer is when he has looked inside . let this be a period of intense churning and introspection as we emerge from the furnace, tempered with a set of convictions, mightier than ever,

Know to Grow - NSM theme

How about “Know to Grow”? It can have multiple meanings:

 

  1. Know how to grow – individual growth that further leads to organizational growth
  2. In order to grow, you have to know – to have an informed approach to work and eventual growth
  3. From knowledge to growth – knowledge that leads to growth

 

In short, it deals with both education and expansion.

 

NSM 2010 THEME

In 2009 we came together and were able to sustain during the rough phase of economic recession. The funda of ‘Power of One’ proved right because we fought together against all the evils of recession and whenever we felt low we kept saying……

 

 

“Aal Izz Well…”

 

or

 

 

“We Shall Overcome”

 

 

I know it sounds filmy but we can still think of it.

 

Thanks,

Amit

Theme for the NSM

KAIZEN (which means constant improvement)

How often have we complained about our surroundings and the problems we face in our daily life? I know that I do, quite often whether it is about the traffic or power cuts or…the list seems endless. Sometimes though, we get a reality check and realize that our lives are truly abundant.




January 26 of this year was one such opportunity. A chance conversation with a friend revealed that she has been invited to attend the Rebublic Day parade at a school in a village called Surana, 30 kilometers from Jaipur. It seemed like a chance to not just visit this school but also visit a village, which I confess was a first for me.



Accordingly, we had set off around 7:30 am from Gurgaon. Unfortunately, the fog and terrible traffic jams meant we reached around noon. The function was over but the children were still hanging about the school. We were immediately surrounded by hordes of children, the teachers, some parents, and even the village goats. With a visible sense of pride, they took us to see their classrooms (a grand total of nine small rooms) and their computer centre. My friend, who runs an NGO, had taken an old PC and that was installed in the centre and some of the children proceeded to sit around just staring at it, while the rest followed us around. Getting photographed was pretty popular and so was being able to see their image on the camera screen.



While the rooms were small and most of them sit on the floor and study struggling with the limited resources of their life, their ambitions are unlimited. “Kuch achcha karna hai,” and “Adhayapak banna hai bade hoke” were the two most popular refrains.

Suddenly, I was really glad that I work for a company that published textbooks and realized (yet again) how petty some of our so-called troubles are in reality.
